T-Pain has been making hits, but he has not quite reached Britney Spears‘ status when it comes to paparazzi love. He learned this the hard way, while working with the singer recently.
“I came out the studio and … across the street [were] people with cameras on top of the building and waiting for her to come outside,” he continued. “I come out, they are like, ‘Oh, oh … stop.’ I was like, ‘What about me? I got hits,’ “ T-Pain told MTV.
According to pain, Spears was very professional in the studio.
“She came in there, shook my hand and went right into the booth. She was smiling the whole time. In an hour we had a song. I sang it first and she sung over what I did … in key and everything! Then did a whole ‘nother song. She was about her business,” he added.
Currently, you can catch Pain on the Screamfest Tour alongside Ciara and T.I.
“I don’t really do no songs off my album. I do 12 songs in 25 minutes and they all hits. I come out to ‘[I’m] Sprung,’ do [Bow Wow’s] ‘Outta My System,’ [Kelly’s] ‘[I’m a] Flirt,’ [Huey’s] ‘Pop, Lock & Drop It,’ [Plies’] ‘Shawty.’ We run through it. It’s continuous, nonstop. We stop maybe one time so I can drink some water.”
Aside from Brit, he’s been working on new material with many people, including Akon, E-40 and Chris Brown.
