Released on December 6, 2005, via Jive/Legacy, this 20-track collection showcases T-Pain's innovative use of Auto-Tune and his knack for crafting infectious hooks and memorable melodies.
The album kicks off with the playful intro "Rappa Ternt Sanga," setting the tone for the eclectic mix of styles that follow. Standout tracks like the sultry "I'm N Luv (Wit a Stripper)" featuring Mike Jones, the smooth "You Got Me" with Akon, and the upbeat "Dance Floor" featuring Tay Dizm, highlight T-Pain's versatility and his ability to create club-ready anthems. Collaborations with heavyweights like Bone Crusher, Styles P, and Dizzee Rascal further cement the album's status as a standout debut.
