Well isn’t this awkward. While chilling in his Saturday morning clothes, Teddy Pain takes us into the depths of his mind, dropping a video for his apology to Hov and the game as a whole. Thumbs up for the brash honesty displayed in the lyrics, showcasing that Pain is truly a good wrong songwriter and it’s undeniable. Addressing the situation straight-up is respectable. Thumbs down though for the stumbling, bumbling delivery.
*Bill Walton voice* Let it go, big man, let it go.
You’ve got a big ass chain & enough money to last for a while. Redirect your creativity towards continuing to make rollerskating rink hits fam. Jay wants to call your style D.O.A.? Make another smash to prove him wrong.

I’m sorry, but this video is pointless.
I’ll give kudos the guy for speaking his heart, sounds like he was having an Epiphany.
Hopefully, not the type of Epiphany that Mickey Rourke discovered in Angel Heart.
However, is this some sort of emotional lament, where instead of answering Jay Z straight up, he is basically making a statement that, look man, this is what I do, to feed my family, I’m just a dude in my room making music, can’t you just accept that, and can’t we just get along?
I miss the days when musicians had the brass balls to brawl on the mic, instead of making videos like these or ones where you face is covered in band aids and you pretend that you crying so that you can ‘prove to the world’ that you can act.
I got no money, no honey and drive a cheap car, but I just wanna pee, I really wanna pee, in your cuppa tea, because I’m really really vexessful.

Who wrote a song about my life?
Real talk – Im going to go left field on this and say – I FUCKS WITH THIS
T-Pain comes OUT of his lane to apologize and rap for 5 minutes and its honestly better than 99% of the shit yall ride for..
I cosign this even though i wouldnt bump it more than twice.
That is all
The honesty is good. great actually.
the delivery and…maybe the sentiment or the cause for it, not good.
Don’t apologize for making subpar music that sells well and feeds your family. Either stop making it or cash the checks & shut the fuck up. I understand, I ain’t mad @ you and sometimes I even jam to those tracks. It’s not that serious to where you drop a song AND a video lol.
For some reason I wanted to listen to M.O.P.’s “Instigator” after listening to this.
I’ll cosign TRA
I am going start by saying I agree that it took a big man to do what he did and apologize and the song came out ok, but he is in danger right now of loosing it all cause the take your shirt off song is ok and this is good with the auto tune but lyrics of it make him average.
Im shocked alittle cause on the timberlake remix of his last hit he said stop signing those contracts people cause auto tunes on the way out and right before that him and jay did the song history so He knew auto tune was on the way out but now it looks like his ego was bruised and hes not being very thoughtful in his actions.
I mean when Jay Z says to Lil Mama what you T Paining me now when she interupted his MTV show it shows theres a real disconnect for T Pain. I also remember before Drake came wasnt’ T pain and Lil Wayne going hard together even discussed an album did D.O.A. kill that also or did Drake coming change that only time will tell. I hope he figures it out so he continues to be successful and making hits!
This is soo wack!!!!!!!!!! I mean c’mon. The man Jay came out and said on numerous occasions “Kanye and Lil Wayne and T Pain use A.T. and make beautiful melodies but the thousand other people that do it just to sneak in the game need to cut it out b/c it stagnates the art” And T Pain was well aware of that notion before he dissed him. And after he dissed him, Jay didnt even care, he was like “ok, let’s move on”. Well Hov, we can’t, cause T Pain wanted to stop and get all emotional about it. So now what?
This was nice.
But it makes me realize… the Internet has Hip-Hop fucked up in a way that only a nerd can explain… i.e.
Ya’ll take this Youtube ish TOO SERIOUS!
It’s a song… on youtube (not really in this case) big whoop.
Remember when Soulja Boy and Bow Wow Beefed Through YouTube?
That’s okay… I don’t either.
It’s like… T-Pain goes out on stage and says something about Jay-Z for NO APPARENT REASON!
Now he makes this vid.
It’s not really this serious.
He said a statement via vid and niggas get butthurt.
… anyways…
Ya’ll gotta stop taking anything via Internet serious. It’s not even real until it hits the streets. (Shoutouts to E-Beef)
-Teezy
I like how he dissed J yet again and apologized in the same song… LOL! Classic!
