We not sure if T-Pain is actually being tongue n’ cheek here or if he’s actually serious. One of the lines in this song is “and all I did was grew a beard, now I’m really cool.” Either way, we look forward to not hearing this again but if you’re so inclined, then go ahead, we’re not stopping you. Let the horns play.
