T-Pain Boycotts Fans? Vows Not To Release New Album Until Fans Start Buying Music

Posted by Juan

Music artist going on strike against fans for not buying their garbage?


@nbtpain
So get this T-Pain is jealous of Miley Cyrus and “Britain’s Got Talent” sensation, Susan Boyle (had no idea who she was, had to look her up) and their ability to still move platinum levels of units in a declining music industry.  Apparently miffed by declining sales trends industry wide, Mr. AutoTune himself has threatened to boycott the fans and not release his new album until sales pick back up.  He recently discussed the harebrained scheme with MTV’s 1515

“I got the mastered version of my album in my car right now. But I’m not bringing my album out until these artists start selling records again, ’cause ain’t nobody selling records unless you Susan Boyle,” T-Pain told MTV News. Even though his website is promoting his forthcoming effort RevolveR, the collabo king insisted he’s going to fall back until album sales pick up. “I’m not doing nothing. I’m not bringing out no album, not dropping no more new singles until people start selling records again, and that’s the approach I think everybody should take unless you Susan Boyle or Miley Cyrus.”

Ooookay.  So let me get this straight.  Your plan is go on strike against the fans and demand they buy music and until they do you’re not giving them any to buy?  Apparently T-Pain dropped out of economics and missed the whole thing about Supply and Demand.  Its ok though.  If it gets really bad he could probably sell his “Big Ass Chain” and Vocoder on eBay or Craigslist.

    This dude is a nigger. And I don’t mean that as a term of endearment.

    And who exactly is anxiously awaiting a new T-Pain ablum. If this dude never came out on anything he will not be missed…. Trust.

    I strongly recommend __SeekingUniform.com__ to you where I just found my air force boyfriend! You know it is a great place to meet military men and beautiful women. What’s kind of relationship do you want?

  9. Left-eye says:

    It’s like a hunger strike!

    YES! please starve out these bum ass musical fassies! I’m hoping many others follow in his footsteps. Like Weezy…and 95% of the southern rappers. Hmmm…we can throw in 75% of the east coast rappers too.

    Praise White Jesus! No more T-Pain.

    Please don’t buy albums. He will fade out faster than his father Teddy Riley
