by

T-Pain has announced that a sequel to his On Top of the Covers album is on the way. He confirmed the project while performing at the Stagecoach Festival as a surprise guest during Jelly Roll‘s set on Friday. On stage, he performed “All I Do Is Win” and “Buy U A Drank,” as well as a cover of “Should’ve Been a Cowboy” by the late Toby Keith.

After Jelly Roll praised the original album and revealed it’s what inspired him to invite T-Pain on stage, the rapper revealed that part 2 would be coming “real soon” and advised fans to “get ready for that.” He dropped the first album back in March of last year. It featured covers of Black Sabbath, Journey, Sam Cooke, and more.

He previously revealed that he began working on the covers album years beforehand after winning The Masked Singer in 2019. “This covers album has been years in the making. I started recording this right after I won The Masked Singer,” he told Rolling Stone in 2023. “It got put on hold for a bit but now that I’m independent, I’m able to do whatever I want to do through Nappy Boy Entertainment and this is something I’ve felt strongly about for a long time. These songs are not what you’d expect when you hear that T-Pain is doing a covers album and that is what I think is cool about it.”

Grammy Award-winning, multi-faceted artist and entrepreneur T-Pain has released his highly anticipated, long-awaited covers album On Top Of The Covers, out now via Nappy Boy Entertainment. PRESS HERE to listen. 

The album features an eclectic and unexpected mix of reimagined hits that all mean something special to T-Pain, done in his own style and showcasing his stunningly soulful and smooth natural, non-AutoTuned voice which shocked audiences when T-Pain won the first season of FOX’s The Masked Singer after previously delivering what was then the most-watched NPR Tiny Desk session of all time.

On Top Of The Covers features creative covers of Sam Cooke’s “A Change Is Gonna Come,” Journey’s “Don’t Stop Believin’,” Dr. Hook’s “Sharing The Night Together,” Sam Smith’s “Stay With Me,” Chris Stapleton’s “Tennessee Whiskey,” Frank Sinatra’s “That’s Life” ft. NandoSTL (a Nappy Boy Entertainment artist), and Black Sabbath’s “War Pigs,” plus an interlude “Skrangs” (in K Major Sus). 

“Each one of these songs means something to me and helped me fall in love with music at different points in my life. I’m releasing this covers album from the view of what I hear when I listen to each song. I can’t wait to share with the world what I’ve been working on the past several years,” says T-Pain.
