Billboard:
ARTIST: T-PAIN
ALBUM: EPIPHANY
T-Pain is a troublemaker who prides himself on pretty women, possessions, partying and sex. These frivolous musings take center stage on "Epiphany," which finds the Tallahassee, Fla.-bred vocalist on the hunt for more late-night trysts ("Back Seat Action," "69") and downright mischief. Similar to his omnipresent mentor Akon, T-Pain has effectively branded his Roger Troutman-esque vocal style into something instantly recognizable. But this studio-processed sound becomes bothersome on tracks like the reggae mishap "Shottas." As usual, his lyrics are far from profound -- on "Show U How," he claims, "I can turn a he into a housewife any day." But while alcoholic excess bares itself repeatedly -- "Bartender," "Tipsy" and the Yung Joc-featured hit "Buy U a Drank (Shawty Snappin')," attempts at depth (like "Suicide," a song about HIV) prove that T-Pain's time is better spent at the bar.

I bought it this morning. The CD itself is an awesome shade of blue. LOL. I hope I like the CD. The 2 songs I've heard are nice.

I like this CD alot! I'm very pleased with it! I like R. Kelly's CD and Rihanna's CD more.
The hits are: Show You How, Backseat Action, Put It Down, Time Machine, Calm The f**k Down
Calm The f**k Down and Time Machine are my favorite right now...that could change.

Billboard.biz:
• T-Pain flies in at No. 1 on The Billboard 200 with his sophomore set, "Epiphany," moving 171,000. It's easily the artist's best sales week ever -- his debut effort, "Rapper Ternt Sanga," started with 47,000 (his previous sales high) at No. 40 in December 2005. It eventually peaked at No. 33 in March 2006. The new album is powered by his "Buy U a Drank (Shawty Snappin')," which reached No. 1 on The Billboard Hot 100 last month.

In Defense of T-Pain… Huey P. Langston has an epiphany about the singer you hate to love king-mag.com/online/?p=3013it's a must read article for the haters and the lovers of T-pain. After reading it, my dislike for him diminshed slightly.
