T-Pain calls out the JOCKERS
T-Pain is sick and tired of the bitters who are continuously biting, and not paying up for it! At the end of the “I can’t believe it” remix, T-Pain states that the auto tune is almost up. He’s referring to the other artist such as Ron Browz, who according to Pain has used the Auto Tune effect poorly.
T-Pain credited Diddy for being professional enough to give Pain royalties for the use of the auto tune for an up-and-coming project.
”Diddy actually gave me royalties on this album just for using auto-tune. He signed the contract and everything. If I can do that with Diddy, somebody else better be signing something. It’s Diddy. He didn’t have to involve me at all. … I’m writing and producing on his album, and he gave me extra royalties on top of that for using something I just brought back.”
It seems as if T-Pain means business, and wants to start seeing some sort of compensation. Don’t be surprised if he starts to sue all the people who have used the auto tune effect. FYI: the auto tune was not even originated by T-Pain, he’s crediting himself for bringing it back. We’re going to have to wait and see how this one is going to play out.

He is an ass how the hell could he sue for something he didnt create. I guess Roger troutman family should be the ones suing T-Pain

Yeah T-Pain sure does have a big head up under all those big ass hats he wear. Maybe Theodor Geisel family or Dr. Seuss as many of us know him as should sue T-pain for wearing those rediculously large top hats he wears. Honestly T-Pain needs to sit his ass down somewhere and just keep writin instead of worrying about who the hell is using “HIS” Auto-Tune affect. And on a side note its called a goddamn Vocoder people not Auto-Tune…Auto-tune is a damn process plug-in name made by a company and its used with the vocodor…no vocoder no auto tune

Tre-Styles you right i just find it funny how now n days there realy is no originality in the music today and How could he take credit for something he did not create. anybody that knows music knows Roger Troutman should be the one getting props for the vocorder remember computer love. T- Pain is alright but he needs to sit his ass down and shut up.

I’m a big fan of T- Pain but I really think he’s buggin about the vocorder issue. If people really wanna get technical Roger Troutman’s family should be sueing Teddy Riley (Blackstreet) remember, he used it too but he didn’t get outrageous and claim it to be his. He gave props where props was due and he credited roger troutman for inspiring him. So I just have to ask T- PAIN, who inspired you to use vocorder? And if its anyone who used it before you then you have no right to complain. Sit down and think about what you are going to say to the public before you say it so that you won’t end up looking like an idiot or better yet a big baby.

Ok maybe the suing thing is over the top but in the last decade or so T-Pain brought the Vocoder back and made millions off of it…………………. Really I can understand why he want cash but it is over board, and to the folk that say he should sit down majority of the mothafuckas using the vocoder is the people u listen to

T-Pain needs to get a life!! He gettin mad about some shit that he got from somebody else!! I dont care if he brought it back, he still didnt create it!! To me real talent doesnt need the auto tune. If you got skills sing ya tracks without the help of a machine. Has anybody ever heard T-Pain without the vocorder? I never been a huge fan of the auto tune and hopefully this phase is about over because im sick of EVERYBODY trynna do it.
