“This covers album has been years in the making,” T-Pain says. “I started recording this right after I won The Masked Singer. It got put on hold for a bit but now that I’m independent, I’m able to do whatever I want.”
He adds, “These songs are not what you’d expect when you hear that T-Pain is doing a covers album and that is what I think is cool about it.”
