One third of all songs on the radio currently involve T-Pain in some way either as a producer, rapper, or featured artist. (Probably not in that order.) However, the bulk of T-Pain's income comes from not from his singles but his ringtones, a market essentially invented from the sweet strains of his vocoded voice. This "All Things Considered" clip (!) discusses why T-Pain's voice sounds particularly good through a cell phone's tiny speaker. No mention of how he managed the impossible: To make "bitch" a three- syllable word. Even at the top of his game, Snoop could only pull off two and a half.
