Konvict/Jive Records recording artist T-Pain, who is on top of the Billboard music and ringtone charts with his breakout smash single "Buy U A Drank (Shawty Snappin')," releases his sophomore album Epiphany today June 5th. "Buy U A Drank (Shawty Snappin')" recently beat out artists such as Maroon 5, Avril Lavigne, Timbaland, and Ne-Yo to the top of the Billboard Hot 100 chart as the #1 single in the country. One of music's rapidly rising and omnipresent stars, T-Pain's sophomore album Epiphany expresses his growth as an artist and the definition of the album title as a "sudden moment of insight or revelation" truly encapsulates his efforts on this release. On Epiphany, T-Pain takes over the reins as producer, writer and arranger and enlists artists such as Akon -- who discovered and signed him to his Konvict Muzic label, and Yung Joc to hone and master the unique sound that he introduced on his gold-selling debut album Rappa Ternt Sanga.Recently T-Pain has been crisscrossing the country producing and collaborating for a wide and varied list of mega-artists that include Usher, Britney Spears, R. Kelly, Chris Brown and Busta Rhymes. His follow-up single "Bartender" featuring Akon is rapidly moving up the charts and is following in the footsteps of his chart-topping first single "Buy U A Drank (Shawty Snappin)." Fans can catch T-Pain perform live on BET's 106 and Park on June 6th and on the Jimmy Kimmel show June 14th.- Download T-Pain's 'Epiphany' on iTunes
