For a while we thought there was a chance that T-Pain might just throw his top hat in the ring to become a college president, but now it looks like he’s ternt his attention to … animated musicals? Of course. Tallahassee’s favorite rapper is producing and taking a role in Freaknik:The Musical, a one-hour special that will air on The Cartoon Network’s Adult Swim block in March. T-Pain will play “a party ghost” in the show, which also includes the voice talents of Lil Wayne, Kelis, Lil Jon, Big Boi, Snoop Dogg, Pain’s boating buddy Andy Samberg and more. (Sadly, once again, Kanye wasn’t invited to the party.) Colorful/seizure-inducing trailer below.
Freaknik: The Musical
So what exactly is a “freaknik” anyway? Let Professor T-Pain explain it to you. He said in a recent statement:
“Back in the ’90s, Freaknik was Atlanta’s version of the ultimate block party,” T-Pain said in a statement. “It was Mardi Gras meets spring break at your crazy cousin’s bachelor party and anything could happen. A decade later, I’m bringing it back for people like me, who didn’t get to experience it the first time around. We’ve recreated Freaknik’s vibe and energy with amazing animation, new music and an all-star cast of characters.”
Can’t wait. We’re just surprised Jay-Z isn’t headlining this musical bonanza, too.
Freaknik:The Musical airs March 7 on Adult Swim.
Between me and my husband we’ve owned more MP3 players over the years than I can count, including Sansas, iRivers, iPods (classic & touch), the Ibiza Rhapsody, etc. But, the last few years I’ve settled down to one line of players. Why? Because I was happy to discover how well-designed and fun to use the underappreciated (and widely mocked) Zunes are.
