Yes, T-Pain! Watch his flawless covers of 'Crazy,' Sam Cooke
So, we all knew T-Pain could really, really sing.
His famous NPR Tiny Desk Concert taught us that much:
And on Thursday evening, to celebrate the 10th anniversary of his debut album Rappa Ternt Sanga, the King of Autotune-turned-R&B crooner returned to NPR for an acoustic concert, reprising last year's unplugged performance with a set of new covers and old favorites.
He kicked off the night with a smoldering cover of Gnarls Barkley's Crazy.
Cee-Lo who?
Fittingly, he treated the crowd to slow-and-smooth takes on hits like Tipsy and Bartender, before dedicating an emotional version of Sam Cooke's A Change Is Gonna Come to his dad.
While rocking his glittery Hex tie and trademark glasses, naturally:
Anyone else still think this voice needs Autotune?
Not us:
After last night, we're gonna need a T-Pain covers album of all our favorite Motown classics, stat.
Watch some fan-shot footage of A Change Is Gonna Come below, and try not to get emotional:
