In an interview, T-Pain mentioned his impact on music when he was asked about his perspectives use of Auto-Tune.
T-Pain also confrimed how his music style has developed recently “I went off for a little while trying to reinvent myself and try[ing] to do different music and stuff,” Pain said. “Everybody was saying that you need to switch it up…That was the [2011] Revolver album, and it didn’t do as good as I wanted it to. People like familiarity. People like to know what is happening. It was only right that I go back to what made me the T-Pain I am today.” When asked about his new release he said “This is really going to be what’s on my mind and what’s me,” he says. “I’m doing this album like [how] Quentin Tarantino makes movies. Everybody always asks Quentin Tarantino, ‘Who you make movies for?’ He don’t make movies for anybody.” In 2011, Pain mentioned the problems he encountered during a craft Revolver. “I actually did have some difficulty with it, but you know, it was more of me wanting to get out what I wanted to get out [and] make the songs how I wanted them to sound, how I heard them in my head,” Pain said. “Because every other time I did it on any other album, it was like, ‘Ah, well this sounds close enough. So let’s put it out…’ Then boom, every time I heard it, it bothered me, so this time I actually sat down and got it out the way I heard it in my head.”
