Mark Zuckerberg & T-Pain Release Acoustic Duet of Lil Jon’s ‘Get Low’

One of the year’s most unexpected collaborations has come to fruition, with T-Pain teaming up with Mark Zuckerberg to deliver an acoustic version of Lil Jon & the East Side Boyz’s “Get Low”.

News of the nascent cover broke on Tuesday (Nov. 12) when the Facebook founder took to his Instagram Story to share a picture of the pair together with the caption, “It’s happening guys.” T-Pain later shared the same picture, referring to Zuckerberg as “Z” while claiming, “It is time…”

Now, the fruits of their labor have been revealed, with the pair releasing a cover of “Get Low” under the musical moniker Z-Pain.

Originally released in 2002 as the third single from Lil Jon & the East Side Boyz’s album Kings of Crunk, “Get Low”, it became the breakthrough single for the group, charting internationally, and peaking at No. 2 on both the Hot 100 and Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs charts, and topping the Hot Rap Songs chart.

In a post shared to Instagram, Zuckerberg revealed that he had collaborated with T-Pain on the track to serve as an anniversary present for his wife, Priscilla Chan.

“‘Get Low’ was playing when I first met Priscilla at a college party, so every year we listen to it on our dating anniversary,” Zuckerberg wrote. “This year I worked with @tpain on our own version of this lyrical masterpiece. Sound on for the track and also available on Spotify. Love you P ❤️”

The unlikely relationship between Zuckerberg and T-Pain has been forged over the past few years, with the former even appearing in one of the musician’s livestreams on Instagram in May 2021.

Earlier this year, the Florida singer gifted Zuckerberg a Nappy Boy Meta chain in July. The tech giant posted a video of him putting on the chain and calling it, “a vibe,” and posted a caption, saying: “Thanks @tpain for the epic new chain. Perfect opportunity to show how the new Segment Anything AI research model we’re releasing today can track different objects in the same video. Lots of fun video effects will be possible with this.”

On Sunday (Nov. 10), T-Pain was also honored by his hometown of Tallahassee, with Mayor John Dailey awarding him both the Keys to the City, and cemented the musician’s status as one of the city favorite’s songs by renaming Pasco Street to T-Pain Lane.
