Mental health is no joke. People tearing people down just to make themselves better is sick.

[hitindahead]

T-Pain always seemed like a genuine dude. Can’t help but like him.

Usher: You fucked up music for real singers

Usher than goes on to record “OMG” which heavily uses auto tune.

[Finerwoman]

Usher was hatin’ 🤣…T-pain fans knew he could sing without auto-tune! Appreciate his creativity!

[desinotsoanonymous]

It’s crazy because t-pain can really sing without auto tune and he seems like a good man

[AMATEURDECORATINGLIKEAPRO]

His heart is so genuine. Autotune was his niche and that's all. He is truly comfortable in his skin. I love that he is transparent which means he is winning. 💙

So ironic to hear that a man that has brought so much joy to millions with his talent, has battled depression. We love t-pain!!

[jeanetteoliver]

It doesn't matter what anyone says..T- Pain can sing. Love him ❤

[NappaDaGOAT]

T-pain didn’t mess up music, he revolutionized it.

This goes to show just how powerful words can be. We need to think carefully before we speak.

Wow shows he's the bigger man and he even said no disrespect to usher. Their hate is anger of his success. T-Pain AND Usher were on my playlist back then; we all knew it was just his style, the auto tune didn't sound like crap because it's backed up by that great singing. Do your thang T-Pain.

[bxverax]

We all know that he used auto-tune but it didn’t matter all of his songs were 🔥

When someone you love and trust tells you that you aren't good enough. It hits you hard no matter how strong you are. Just like your parents telling you that you are a loser.

[Cosmo]

Imagine bitching at someone for something and giving them depression, then turning around and doing the very thing you scolded someone else for. Hypocrisy in some people knows no bounds

[DetectivesDaughter]

Usher and Jay Z are just pissed because they didn’t think to use autotune first.

[largemouthbassman]

Auto—tune didn’t stop Usher, it was usher that stopped himself.

[ashleighcannady]

His voice is absolutely incredible and so is his spirit! Im so glad he had the chance to showcase his real voice!

[livlt]

Poor guy. I don't know much about this fella but he seems like a lovely genuine soul.

[irenelorenzo]

He had the guy woken up from sleep, only to tell him that he f*cked up music. SMH. What the hell is wrong with Usher?

[zyne]

He was never your friend! The fact that your “friend” woke you up so that you can go to him because *he* wants to talk to you, please!!! He never loved you. What makes him so important!
