Mark Zuckerberg is potentially making music with T-Pain.
The Facebook founder posted a photo of the two in the studio on his Instagram Story with the caption, “It's happening guys.” T-Pain then reposted the same photo with “It is time…” and referred to the Meta boss as “Z”.
The two have forged an unlikely relationship over the years with the Florida singer gifting Zuckerberg a Nappy Boy Meta chain earlier this year in July. Zac posted a video of himself wearing the chain, calling it 'a vibe' and captioned it, saying: 'Thank you @tpain for the epic new chain. Perfect opportunity to show how the new Segment Anything AI research model we're releasing today can track different objects in the same video. Lots of fun video effects will be possible with it.”
T-Pain jumped into the comments to congratulate his new friend, saying, “Looking cool dude. Thanks for being a great friend,” with Mark replying, “It's a great chain! We look forward to more adventures ahead.”
No word yet on what will come of this studio session, but judging by the above video of Zuck using Segment Anything AI to play with his new chain, AI is likely at the heart of things. Now, are we just going to get a single or a whole album from these two? Can T-Pain usher in a new wave of artificial intelligence in music like he did with Auto-Tune? We will have to wait and see.
The two became fast friends the CEO of Meta appeared on one of T-Pain's live streams in 2021, where the singer asked Zuckerberg to add features to Instagram DMs. If you recall, T-Pain once revealed that he was unaware of the social media platform's request folder and downloaded a list of A-listers who have tried to contact him over the years.
