Mark Zuckerberg Branches Into Music With New T-Pain Collab

Z-Pain, as Zuckerberg and T-Pain have affectionately named themselves, have released their first single.

Watch your back Musk - Facebook mastermind Mark Zuckerberg may have dropped the hardest - and most unexpected - banger of 2024, pairing up with T-Pain to remake the Lil Jon hit song Get Low.

While we’ve seen large gestures from tech billionaires fairly often recently, Zuck reveals that this seemingly random collaboration was meticulously planned as a romantic gift for his wife, Priscilla Chan. The couple are currently celebrating their 20th anniversary, with Zuckerberg sharing a heartfelt post to Meta-owned app Instagram:

Get Low was playing when I first met Priscilla at a college party, so every year we listen to it on our dating anniversary. This year I worked with T Pain on our own version of this lyrical masterpiece. Sound on for the track and also available on Spotify. Love you P.”

“Can’t get quite as low anymore but more in love and grateful for that love than ever. Love you MZ,” Zuckerberg’s wife commented under the post.

This isn’t the first time that the tech entrepreneur has approached a grand gesture for his wife, having spent over $50 million to create a life-like statue of his wife for their garden. “Bringing back the Roman tradition of making sculptures of your wife,” he said of the occasion.
