T-Pain

Contemporary R&B
Contemporary R&BHip hopPop

T-Pain is a Contemporary R&B and Hip hop act. Their catalogue also touches Pop. Their sound grew out of Karl Wolf, Joey Bada$$, Maejor, Gala and Cham. Those roots explain a lot about how T-Pain arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as Baby Bash, The-Dream, Ludacris, Omarion and Ne-Yo, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Zion.T, Meghan Trainor, Dan + Shay, Straight Outta Lynwood and Pi'erre Bourne, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 87 connections around T-Pain, reaching back through Karl Wolf and forward to Zion.T.
