Some of us really suffering out here and truly fighting for our lives in various ways. Count your blessings Big Time if it really is just 5 minutes or even 5 days for you 💗
Those are the kind of concerts I want to pay for. You really pay for what you got and that must have been AMAZING to be in that crowd I'm envious!! T-Pain embodies the soul of a true musician and let's not forget about this passionate band, every one of them made that happen to be PERFECT. Please come to Montreal someday it would be sold out in less than a minute!!
Just watching this is an experience I'll never forget like god damn. Was not ready at all for all the places it would take me, in the best way possible.
There’s something about how hidden of a talent T-Pain has always been that adds a layer to his vocals and it makes me emotional when listening to him sing.
Ozzy shouted it out, lol, YES!!! We need more anti war songs... Get some Jump Nyabinghi & War from Marley, Civil War from GNR, Throw away the TV Chillipeppers, Handlebars flobots, etc etc... Keep the anti war song views up, it changes the world.
These arrangements are ridiculously incredible. These aren’t “just” covers. These are reimagined and reinvented in such a way that they honor the original yet highlight his talent so well. Love your work brother. Keep it up. 🙌🏾🙌🏾
@@LxrdBreezy00 hell no!! I’ve been on the t pain train for a hot minute. I was saying that I learned how good he really was like a decade ago with his NPR tiny desk appearance, and have been showing it to everyone who doesn’t think he can sing since I first saw it. I’m saying this one is so ridiculous that I’m going to point nonbelievers here now instead of his tiny desk!
I'm mostly into the newer more progressive sounding stuff, but have been playing guitar and listening to all sorts of metal for most of my life. The majority of T-Pain's music I've heard has been autotuned radio stuff. I was surprised how well his real voice worked for the War Pigs cover. He fucking killed it. Ozzy Osbourne recently tweeted that T-Pain's cover is the best War Pigs cover he's ever heard.
This has got to be one of the best live performances ever. Small venue letting the world hear his voice without autotune dude holy shitttttt what a talent
Im 45 and facing heart and kidney failure. When I heard you singing these songs it completely took me away to a beautiful place. I'm a lifelong lover of all music and a bit of an artist myself, so I know good music man. This was a masterful performance my friend. I just wanna thank you for bringing a beautiful light to my life, if only for this hour. It really did soothe my aching body and soul and at times brought tears to my eyes. Thank you so very much for this little gift you gave me as I lay in my bed imagining how amazing it would have been to be there. If I make it long enough to see you do this again...I would do anything to be there live. Thank you T-Pain!! Sincerely, Eric Trujillo of Milton Washington
The singing, the arrangements, the sensibility, the exquisite playing, the comedy, the message... You can clearly feel T-Pain has found his purpose in life 🙌🏼
I must admit i never ever knew he could sing like this! He always used to have that auto tune to make his vocals sound slightly computer generated. But Jesus, this man never needed it!! He has the most beautiful, soulful, god-given vocals. Wow wow wow myself and my husband and I were both blown away!
And odd thought that I was having was that there are plenty of musically talented people on this planet that we've never heard of and it's strange that we look at the popular artists and are surprised when they reveal the extent of musical talent. Strange world at times
This should definitely be at a million views. Talent like this is so so rare. I don’t want T-Pain to get his flowers when he gone. Give them to him now.
Dear god. If you didn’t know, now you know. T-Pain is a rockstar. Covering Sinatra, Chris Stapleton, and Black Sabbath. Spanning so many genres of music. He killed it all.
A friend once told him he was the death of music. I think he spent a long long time trying to prove that person wrong. He is paying homage to music, not trying to ruin it.
@@MrHalfDoomno doubt, but this is so far beyond tiny desk. This was a masterpiece, seriously. I can’t say I’m his biggest fan or know his best work, but I’ve been aware of t pain as a legit artist since tiny desk and have someone kept tabs since…I honest to god don’t think he will ever top this. I mean that with all respect the world, but this must be his magnum opus.
Yup, i got corrected on tpain by a dude i cooked with throwing up tiny desk, my jaw hit the floor. I've had a number of fun moments since, "orly? Just autotune and club moves? Listen to this." I just said that to my lady this morning, how blown away i was when i heard the man aside from top 10, lowest common denominator, radio friendly boogie tunes. Catchy, fun, but not artistically deep in any way that hooked me. Then i find this... 😳😨🤯
The RAWNESS of Tpain's range and his rasp .....his voice makes me teary eyed when he effortlessly sings ballads! Just a symphonic marriage of the music and his voice!
I know he's doing covers but this should be an award winning live album. Production, musical arrangements, song selection, performance all A-1. This was amazing. Awesome job T-Pain. I listened all the way through.
T-Pain cracked the code with the covers album and this live show. Get this man headlining every festival this year. One of the best artists of our generation, I said what I said. A true musician and artist
You, Sir, get it. As someone deep into soul music (widely understood) history, I'm past the discussion of *whether* he can sing and found myself asking, "Who is he comparable to in terms of vocal range and texture, dexterity across genres, and pure and applied soul?" I started putting him in the conversation with a Frankie Beverly, or (in terms of crooning) Ron Isley. But I could think of no one except Prince who is able to sound this powerful, rich, poignant, and exquisite across SO MANY genres. Obviously, T-Pain doesn't sound like Prince and isn't the interpretive genius Prince is. But I can tell you, from start to finish, I enjoyed this T-Pain concert as immensely as ANY great artist (Marvin Gaye, Chaka Khan, Bon Jovi, Aretha Franklin, and yes, Prince) I've ever listened to.
@@LanceCassidy I hear you, but there's no doubt T-Pain's got the vocal chops to not just be the headliner but the sole act for a concert and he certain isn't or shouldn't be confined to small spaces.
When it comes to T-Pain underrated is an understatement. He has been doing this for years, it’s great to see this young man get his flowers. Great performance thank you. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Man this band is so locked in! T-Pain singing his face off! You rarely get this type of live recordings anymore! The precision playing and singing is so profound! This was awesome! Well done Fellas! Well Done!!
T Pain didn't use autotune, autotune used T Pain. This performance was 10/10. The arrangements, the backing vocals, the musicians, the song choice, and just the overall vibe was excellent. Will watch again.
THIS IS A DECLARATION! TPain, brother, you have dropped the GAUNTLET OF SOUL right up in the middle of the internet and said LOUDLY, PROUDLY, PROFOUNDLY that the music is in the vessel and in the vibe! THIS IS STUNNING! It kept me up late last night, screaming at my TV, and woke me up early this morning for an encore! BLESSINGS ON BLESSINGS!!!! These arrangements are THICK LIKE MOLASSES AND PURE LIKE PRAISE! God have mercy!!!!
Brotha, I was looking for the words but you said it best!! TPain, I have ALWAYS LOVED music. Such a blessed soul. Thank you for sharing your beautiful gift… what the CREATOR has given you!! Stay BLESSED!
I’ve been saying for YEARS that T-Pain is one of the best artists of our generation and it makes me so happy everyone is finally coming around to see that too!
As a black person that listens to a lot of rock, I really wish more contemporary black artists would cover rock. Some of the greatest songs of all time transcended spaces like that. Bob Dylan and Jimi Hendrix tossing records back and forth between each other gave us two incredible renditions of “All Along The Watchtower”. And let’s not forget: Michael Jackson and Prince. A ton of great music to cover that brings a whole new sound and feel. A ton of great new music we could make if we saw contemporary black artists transcend their core genre(s) to come find out they have more range than they actually do through experimentation.
Rock doesn't happen without Black artists. Whether it be the blues greats of Robert Johnson or Sister Rosetta Tharpe, to some of the genre's first greats like Chuck Berry or Little Richard, the heart and skeleton of the genre are deeply rooted in Black American cultural input.
By far one of the most amazing “cover” concerts of all time. Every musician was amazing and all to compliment T Pains perfect pitch. They made each song their own without doing any of them a disservice. Bravo!
This is kind of what we have been lacking in African American music. It is great to see someone stand and deliver a true rhythm and blues song. Sing young man sing!
As someone who ADORES the original Sam Cooke, and the Aretha Franklin covour, T-Pain rounds out the trinity of the only 3 versions of A Change Is Gonna Come I’ll acknowledge
Music Director/ Bass/ Keys: Rodney ‘Lil Rod’ Jones Jr. Guitar: Curt Chambers Drums: Clemons Poindexter Keys: Joe Flip Wilson Bgv and Bgv Director: Porcha Clay Bgv: Chelsea “Peaches” West Bgv: Kirsten Dawkins Bgv: Jasmine Patton
Damn thats my boy Clemons on the drums damn i couldnt tell cuz they never really showed his face up close!!! Awww man absolute beast fam 💪🏾 great stuff
@@IAmAlmightyGod it’s true, the fact they are covers makes it less unique. I wouldn’t know the business side of it and costs. But this level of talent would most certainly bring an audience.
This has been a lovely trip indeed! Every genre was touched. T-Pain gave us jazz, Motown, POP, Rock, Country, R&B and Hip Hop. Such a musical genius. Thank you for gracing us with this gift, to hear your raw talent and to see you in your natural element is iconic. Blessings to you ❤
OMG! Didn’t know T-Pain has this type of vocals. He didn’t just sing one type of music, he was so versatile, just to show what he can really do! AMAZING SET! 👏🏿❤️🔥
Whats crazy is I'm a music producer and I heard him sing without autotune years ago & I felt the same way about bro.No Homo Bro the Real Deal.... Blessing
I rewatch this video whenever I'm feeling down and it neer fails to make me feel better. T-Pain's voice reminds me of the feeling of falling in love or at least that's how I feel whenever I hear him sing haha and man I could listen to him sing every song ever written.
Big shoutout to the band that transported and adapted the songs to perfectly fit T-Pain'd voice. A lot of style and artistry that a lot of cover bands dont have.
But one ought not to forget to give props to Mr.T-Pain - versatility supreme! He sang like he was BORN to sing with that band! What fantastic synchrosity between the 2 entities!
What do yiu mean by growth you think autotune effect he wasnt his voice hes been great with tue viice uts just thw timing and a whole politics in music made tye guy loose it all things work together for those you can complete😂
@@johniebeats I mean the growth as an artist in general. This is not the guy who sung I'm in love with a stripper. His voice has grown lightyears away from that auto tune or no autotune. He has evolved into a whole different level. He's incredible.
Hope he reads these comments and realises he deserves all the love he’s getting. These covers are genuinely fucking incredible. The infancy of the show is awesome and the band and sound of it all is insane. One of the best sets I’ve ever watched and that’s facts. Would pay anything to have been there live. What an artist 👏🏼
When he started singing "A Change Is Gonna Come", I had chills all over my body. Such a surreal cover. The whole arrangement was beautiful. I can't believe we have been blessed to be able to listen to this.
This live performance deserves WAYYYY more views than it has right now!! I listened to the entire performance twice back to back and man…. I’m blown away. T-Pain Was a big part of my childhood. We love you
Look at this man’s versatility, every genre was touched with class and great delivery! He is one of my favorite performers for everything he displayed in this WHOLE LIVE concert . He used autotune at the beginning of his career just being a creative artist, never did he need that to enhance his vocal performances.
See, that's the thing. He never hid his ability to sing. Go back and listen to his first album. The only reason he used auto tune is because he thought it sounded cool. The same reason I wanted that same talk box that Roger Troutman had, but I could never get my hands on. It sounds cool. And I said it before, but I'll say it again: Auto-Tune does not a good singer make. You can even hear how well T-Pain sings under the auto tune when you listen to songs like "Sweet".
What's your go-to karaoke song?
Give it to me baby - Rick James
Jorge Montana - Alone With You
If your version of Buy You A Drank from THIS performance were an option, ..that would be it!!! Otherwise.. something by Anita Baker probably!
Kansas - Carry On Wayward Son
A Man Without Love - Englebert Humperdinck
Shout out to the engineer. This is one of the best live recordings I've ever heard.
No kidding dude. I was thinking the same thing!!
me too the drum mix was amazing
Great sound mix! T Pains vocals are rich af
The sound is incredible. It sounds better than most albums I've heard!
For real. The entire production was absolutely top notch.
Let this man do a Super Bowl
Hell yeah !
agreed!
Yaaaas! 😅
I second this motion!!!

But better fr

He was phenomenal!
I know right??? War pigs....he damn nailed it!!! i think i didnt breath whilst he was doing that solo...
dont sleep on the bassists man, dude was slappin that shit

I love this comment !! So true !!
Man needed to nerf himself lol
@thejournalist8091 haha when he had to nerf himself cuz hed destroy peoples careers is gangsta af.
Well fn said 👏
Well said bro, well said
Audio engineer needs a raise, I felt like I was there.
exactly! captured the vibes perfectly
For real!
Petition for him to tour the world in intimate venues like this, I’m from UK and would pay anything to see this live! Pure soul
Yessssss I agree, let's go
Me too!!! I would take this setting over big venues any day and this whole set is Amazing
Oh absolutely yassss.
I agree!!!! 3 nights at Yoshi's or the New Parish in Oakland, Ca would be amazing!
I swear, I was just saying I'd pay anything to see something like this live in the UK. He can sing the legs off a donkey!!
Those audience members had an experience they’ll remember forever. I’m so jealous.
Me too
me three!!!!
Ugh same - when I listen to him talk to the audience, I realize how cool it would be to sit at one of those tables.
Me tooo 🥹
Just watching this is an experience I'll never forget like god damn. Was not ready at all for all the places it would take me, in the best way possible.
I would pay an obscene amount of money for a vinyl pressing of this performance.
I second that
Yessss
I hope they release a bonus DVD or Blu-ray of his live performance.
Omg yes!
Me too! And I don’t even have very much of that stuff either but I’d scrape it together
There’s something about how hidden of a talent T-Pain has always been that adds a layer to his vocals and it makes me emotional when listening to him sing.
One of the most underrated voices in the world!
Yes he is but he's getting his flowers ❤ tonight!!!
Period ❤
Facts!!
❤
Agreed
That war pigs cover went HARD
that guitarist just shredded!!
New t pain respect

The war pigs cover is right up there with Denzel Curry covering bulls on parade. Top notch
54:22 loved tpain singing in that but was that guitar pre-recorded? sound changed but his fingers stayed in the same spot

Indeed brother. 100% Well said
Couldn’t have put it any better myself.. absolutely jaw dropping performance
The transition from American Women to I don't want to be is fire!!
Shout out to the sound engineer, everything sound absolutely PERFECT
t pain needs to do the world a favour and do a rock album
I know right! He absolutely KILLED War Pigs!
What a disgustingly talented man. This has immediately dethroned Tiny Desk as my go to “no seriously, T Pain is legit” evidence.
If you just learning.. welcome. T pain been the shit for a min im glad he found out how to work Instagram and found them Dms😂

Did T-Pain just do one of the coolest covers of War Pigs ever?
Every cover he did was Fantabulous. Every single one. He has a gift. Talent
Brown Sabbath version is pretty damn good too
Yuh

This is way better than modern hip hop music. As a 27 year old I can breathe to this..
@christianhenry4173 idk about all of that also as a 27 year old but this is an extremely refreshing breath of fresh air we all needed
T-Pain owe us a straight up R&B album not rap just straight singing
THAT DRUMMER IS KILLING THAT BLACK SABBATH 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
Yeeeeesssssss!!!! I’m at that part now. He killed the break down
Ozzie actually said T's version was the best he'd ever heard. Said he wished he could be onstage with him one day.
He got the drum set pregant for real.
The lead guitar isn't bad either
Bravo t pain

TPain, brother, you have dropped the GAUNTLET OF SOUL right up in the middle of the internet and said LOUDLY, PROUDLY, PROFOUNDLY that the music is in the vessel and in the vibe! THIS IS STUNNING! It kept me up late last night, screaming at my TV, and woke me up early this morning for an encore! BLESSINGS ON BLESSINGS!!!! These arrangements are THICK LIKE MOLASSES AND PURE LIKE PRAISE! God have mercy!!!!
Exactly what I wanted to say if I was able to find words rn.
Un-fuckin Real. Couldn't believe my ears. Each of these covers were the best versions of the covers i've ever heard. Bruh just raised the bar!
This was absolutely amazing. I played it with my 2 year old, and the next day he asked me to play it again ❤
Brotha, I was looking for the words but you said it best!! TPain, I have ALWAYS LOVED music. Such a blessed soul. Thank you for sharing your beautiful gift… what the CREATOR has given you!! Stay BLESSED!
Me tooo I done watched this several times. Every song was 🔥 🔥 🔥
I’ve been saying for YEARS that T-Pain is one of the best artists of our generation and it makes me so happy everyone is finally coming around to see that too!
As a black person that listens to a lot of rock, I really wish more contemporary black artists would cover rock. Some of the greatest songs of all time transcended spaces like that. Bob Dylan and Jimi Hendrix tossing records back and forth between each other gave us two incredible renditions of “All Along The Watchtower”. And let’s not forget: Michael Jackson and Prince. A ton of great music to cover that brings a whole new sound and feel. A ton of great new music we could make if we saw contemporary black artists transcend their core genre(s) to come find out they have more range than they actually do through experimentation.
Living Colour too!
Rock doesn't happen without Black artists. Whether it be the blues greats of Robert Johnson or Sister Rosetta Tharpe, to some of the genre's first greats like Chuck Berry or Little Richard, the heart and skeleton of the genre are deeply rooted in Black American cultural input.
@@bmac4 certainly don’t disagree. That’s why I want to see more!
I agree, music is a smorgasbord and we can taste and see what's out there
It would hopefully give black artists more exposure and respect for their talents as well. Many, like T-Pain, are underated vocalists and musicians.
Drummer absolutely ATE War Pigs
Skin-man was so calm/cool/reserved with the jazz style...then he UNLEASHED THE BEAST. He was just waiting to pounce!
Yo Tpain, this has been one of the hardest times of my life and this entire set has given me so much joy, I can’t thank you enough. Thank you
No matter what you’re going through as long as you’re here you’re getting through it!!! ❤❤❤ props to you for that.
Stay strong
Keep going!
😊facts
I hope it gets better, stranger
Man… I think even the people who paid for these tickets had no idea what a legendary performance this was gonna be. Wish I was there to see it!
By far one of the most amazing “cover” concerts of all time. Every musician was amazing and all to compliment T Pains perfect pitch. They made each song their own without doing any of them a disservice. Bravo!
Couldn’t have said it better myself!
Agreed
Came for the War Pigs cover, stayed for everything else. This is legit one of the best live sets I've ever watched, in any genre. So good
This is kind of what we have been lacking in African American music. It is great to see someone stand and deliver a true rhythm and blues song. Sing young man sing!
Hey don’t hog it all for yourselves! Every race can enjoy this absolutely gorgeous live set 😊 Stunning vocals T!
Stop with African American. no other race has a continent in front of where they’re from prior 😂
It never left, you’re just looking in the wrong places
Listen to king fish my friend many more of course there out there
If you think there are no black musicians putting out amazing music currently, you simply haven't been following the music that's out there.
That ‘Tennessee Whiskey’ 🥃 was Legendary Fam 👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿Band is Legitimate 🆒👍🏿👍🏿
That band is legit.... love the versatility of this album... 😍 keep doing what you're doing T-Pain. 👏
Wow
isn’t it all covers?
I felt that A Change Is Gonna Come cover IN MY SOUL.
thats my fav
As someone who ADORES the original Sam Cooke, and the Aretha Franklin covour, T-Pain rounds out the trinity of the only 3 versions of A Change Is Gonna Come I’ll acknowledge
I just can’t get enough T pain since he started allowing us to hear his beautiful voice. This show was stupendous!
This backing band deserves an enormous amount of respect! It should not be so difficult to find out who they are!
If you go up under the video title and hit "more" (it may be in 2 places) it shows the timestamp and the band members and bgvs names.
Music Director/ Bass/ Keys: Rodney ‘Lil Rod’ Jones Jr.
Guitar: Curt Chambers
Drums: Clemons Poindexter
Keys: Joe Flip Wilson
Bgv and Bgv Director: Porcha Clay
Bgv: Chelsea “Peaches” West
Bgv: Kirsten Dawkins
Bgv: Jasmine Patton
Damn thats my boy Clemons on the drums damn i couldnt tell cuz they never really showed his face up close!!! Awww man absolute beast fam 💪🏾 great stuff
I’ll probably be coming back to watch this about once a week till the day I die. This man is a generational talent. A living legend.
💯
I'm on watch 3
If anyone was wondering… yes, I’m still coming back. Man is the GOAT‼️
Anyone else thinks we need Pain to do this annually 🤔
I love T’Pain’s personality. His talent is amazing but his personality just shines through. I’m a huge fan.
This is T-Pain reborn, and this band/group is truly extraordinary. They really need a name for the entire band and start a world tour.
Those ladies doing the backup vocals KILLED it! They did all that singing seated, which shows incredible control!!
T pain is too talented. but covering other artists music full time is so Vegas act. And expensive. He'd make no money.
@@IAmAlmightyGod it’s true, the fact they are covers makes it less unique. I wouldn’t know the business side of it and costs. But this level of talent would most certainly bring an audience.
This has been a lovely trip indeed! Every genre was touched. T-Pain gave us jazz, Motown, POP, Rock, Country, R&B and Hip Hop. Such a musical genius. Thank you for gracing us with this gift, to hear your raw talent and to see you in your natural element is iconic. Blessings to you ❤
Don't forget the little gospel praise dance!! 🙌🏾
Stumbled on this by accident, never heard him sing, he was incredible and so was the band
OMG! Didn’t know T-Pain has this type of vocals. He didn’t just sing one type of music, he was so versatile, just to show what he can really do! AMAZING SET! 👏🏿❤️🔥
Right he should have gave us this in 07 when we bopping to him.. Like wtf T-pain we been needed this lol
You should really go back and watch him in Season 1 of Masked Singer. It's so good!
Go watch his tiny desk concert!!! That’s when I found out!
😢
He’s one of the best live acts I’ve seen!
Who agrees that T-Pain needs to drop a lounge album? I can't be the only one!?
I’m blown away. The vocal talent of this man is unworldly. I had no idea he had this in him!! Keep at it T-Pain!!
Whats crazy is I'm a music producer and I heard him sing without autotune years ago & I felt the same way about bro.No Homo Bro the Real Deal.... Blessing
we found that out when he did the tiny desk a couple of years ago.
I rewatch this video whenever I'm feeling down and it neer fails to make me feel better. T-Pain's voice reminds me of the feeling of falling in love or at least that's how I feel whenever I hear him sing haha and man I could listen to him sing every song ever written.
Big shoutout to the band that transported and adapted the songs to perfectly fit T-Pain'd voice. A lot of style and artistry that a lot of cover bands dont have.
But one ought not to forget to give props to Mr.T-Pain - versatility supreme! He sang like he was BORN to sing with that band! What fantastic synchrosity between the 2 entities!
Agree 100%
WOW... GOTTA PUT A WHOLE LOTTA RESPECT ON THIS MAN'S VOICE... GEESH! The growth is truly amazing.. We are witnessing greatness! 🔥🔥🔥
What do yiu mean by growth you think autotune effect he wasnt his voice hes been great with tue viice uts just thw timing and a whole politics in music made tye guy loose it all things work together for those you can complete😂
@@johniebeats I mean the growth as an artist in general. This is not the guy who sung I'm in love with a stripper. His voice has grown lightyears away from that auto tune or no autotune. He has evolved into a whole different level. He's incredible.
@@BeatPromotersRadio This is the first time listening to T-Pain. I'm a jazz and rock fan. This diversity of this set is perfect for me.
"Did you have a bad day or did you have a bad 5 minutes and talk about it all day?" ~ T-Pain
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Man when I tell you how proud of this Man I am‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️ My childhood celebs are still DOMINATING this industry❤️‼️🔥☺️ T-Pizzle🙏🏾
🔥 🔥 🔥 Thank you T. Pain for the great live concert! God bless you and the fire band!
T-Pain's voice is Amazing.....his background singers sounded amazing, and his band was beyond Phenomenal.......👍🏾👍🏾🤴🏾🖤💪🏾.......
I swear smaller venues are the way to go to see live performances and this one looks like it was sooooo much fun!!!
The complete and utter let loose during War Pigs made me literally cry and I wanted to throw up that’s how good it was
Hope he reads these comments and realises he deserves all the love he’s getting. These covers are genuinely fucking incredible. The infancy of the show is awesome and the band and sound of it all is insane. One of the best sets I’ve ever watched and that’s facts. Would pay anything to have been there live. What an artist 👏🏼
the autotune comments are getting quite tiring. understandable, but tiring.
It was truly incredible.
When he started singing "A Change Is Gonna Come", I had chills all over my body. Such a surreal cover. The whole arrangement was beautiful. I can't believe we have been blessed to be able to listen to this.
This live performance deserves WAYYYY more views than it has right now!! I listened to the entire performance twice back to back and man…. I’m blown away. T-Pain Was a big part of my childhood. We love you
the guitarist is lit af mans is going wild
One of the generations most underrated gems
Omg! I came for one song..stayed for the entire concert! T-Pain you are phenomenal 🎉❤😊
I came for one song. An hour later I feel so good inside. Hope he comes to nyc
Same here!😂
Same here
Look at this man’s versatility, every genre was touched with class and great delivery! He is one of my favorite performers for everything he displayed in this WHOLE LIVE concert . He used autotune at the beginning of his career just being a creative artist, never did he need that to enhance his vocal performances.
T- Pain needs to be a judge on The Voice ASAP
WHYYYY did he hide this talent for all these years?!? This is incredible!
He didn't.... he had to do what they would allow UNTIL he could make his own way
If you like this, check out his NPR Front Row concert. It was 8 years ago.

See, that's the thing. He never hid his ability to sing. Go back and listen to his first album. The only reason he used auto tune is because he thought it sounded cool. The same reason I wanted that same talk box that Roger Troutman had, but I could never get my hands on. It sounds cool.
And I said it before, but I'll say it again: Auto-Tune does not a good singer make. You can even hear how well T-Pain sings under the auto tune when you listen to songs like "Sweet".
@esmooth919 this!! people have been sleeping on him for so long when he's always been amazing
@esmooth919 and his "official War Pigs" video has some autotune in it, but this live version in my opinion is better
The disturbed “ooh ah ah ah ah” in war pigs made me love tpain again
The songs he chose created a dope vibe. I felt good watching this. This was dope!! Shoulda been a netflix special, the world need to see this!
