In one of T-Pain’s recent live streams, the rapper, singer, and songwriter shared an interesting moment about his music career. He described a time when he shared his first all-rap mixtape with Kanye West. After T-Pain shared his work in hopes of West’s honest opinion, he then accused West of allegedly using the lyrics that the Chicago rapper called “corny” on his My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy album. T-Pain said that the lyrics were on his mixtape’s song titled “Danger.”

T-Pain told a story on Twitch about Kanye West stealing his lyrics

On Sep. 1, T-Pain elaborated on the unbelievable time that West supposedly stole his lyrics. “Let me talk about a time that one of my corny lines got stolen,” he began on his Twitch Livestream.

“I’m so prepared for this, and I love this. Bro, Kanye stole one of my corny lines. I couldn’t believe it. Kanye stole one of my corny lines after he told me it was corny.”

The rapper went into detail about the nature of their conversation and where things took an abrupt turn. He continued, “And on one of the songs I said, ‘I got beef like two burgers/You n—– win slow and I’m smarter than Steve Urkel.’ Now, keep in mind the Winslow family, right. Corny as f—. I knew it was corny when I said it.” 

Yet, what the rapper didn’t expect was for West to apparently use the lyrics in his fifth studio album on the track “Dark Fantasy” quoting, “Too many Urkels on your team, that’s why your wins low.”

T-Pain is focused on other passions including music

Though some may disapprove, T-Pain has been fulfilling other important areas of his life, including music. Frequently on Twitter, he addressed fans who’ve inquired about his highly anticipated project that’s been delayed three times. He tweeted, “I wish I could make everybody happy but this is exactly why I disappeared the first time. I just need to take my time and I promise you’ll get what you asked for.”

According to Complex, he has a list of artists in chronological order who have inquired about a feature. He then confessed, “If you ask me for a feature at this point, just know that this list is in the order that the requests were received so there’s no way to get to the top of the list.”

Dedicated to his quality of work, the rapper continues to do features occasionally where he can, while still taking the time to make sure “everybody else is good.”
