Mark Zuckerberg And T-Pain's New Cover Of An Early 2000s Hip Hop Classic Is Certainly Something

It's a collab that no one saw coming and was not for everyone.

Rapper and record producer T-Pain, known for creatively enhancing music using Auto-Tune pitch correction, teamed up with Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg to release a cover of Lil Jon’s 2002 hip hop track "Get Low."

The Zuck credited his performance on the new track as Z-Pain.

So, what inspired him to embark on this randomly creative endeavor?

Well, it turns out there's nothing random about his obsession over the song "Get Low," as it had more of a romantic origin.

The 40-year-old Facebook co-founder explained in an Instagram post that it was the song he heard when he first met his wife, fellow Harvard student Priscilla Chan, at a frat party.

The couple revisits the song every year on their dating anniversary.

Zuckerberg decided to switch things up by putting his stamp on the song that has romantically bound them together since they started dating in 2003 when she was a freshman at Harvard.

He shared a carousel of photos featuring him with Chan, and several of him playing the acoustic guitar in the recording studio with T-Pain.

The caption read:

"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 @tpain on our own version of this lyrical masterpiece."

"Sound on for the track and also available on Spotify. Love you P"

Zuckerberg's "Get Low" has been slowed to an acoustic guitar rendition that features the original lyric, “ 'Til the sweat drop down my balls.”

Aww.

Some people were more discerning.

Well, you can't please everyone.

However, it was a success for his intended audience: his lovely wife.

Zuckerberg and Chan tied the knot on May 19, 2012.

They have three daughters together, Maxima Chan Zuckerberg, born on December 1, 2015; August, born in August 2017; and Aurelia, born March 24, 2023.

The billionaire is no stranger to grand gestures when it comes to professing his love to Chan.

Earlier this year, he commissioned a 7-foot-tall green statue of Chan draped in a silver cloak in an effort to bring back the "Roman tradition of making sculptures of your wife."

People magazine was so impressed that they declared Zuckerberg as “the ultimate wife guy!”

Chan shared a photo of her with her statue on her Instagram story with the caption, "You can’t miss me!"

Zuckerberg shared a clip of Chan listening to "Get Low" (Z-Pain's version) and her commenting, "It's so romantic."

Chan, a pediatrician and philanthropist, remarked, “21 years later, I can’t get quite as low, but it brings back a lot of fun memories.”

"I love you," replied Z-Pain.
