T-Pain’s new music video for his single ‘5 O’Clock’, a single which features Wiz Khalifa, is online now for fans to watch – you can check it embedded below.
The new single is a re-working of Lily Allen’s track ‘Who’d Have Known’, and features on T-Pain’s new album ‘Revolver’, which is set to hit shelves on December 6th, two days after ‘5 O’Clock’ gets its release. Ironically, Allen’s ‘Who’d Have Known’ was a rework of Take That’s ‘Shine’, meaning T-Pain’s version is the third of the original song.
Though Lily Allen is a pop princess, she has admitted she is very much a fan of T-Pain’s and Wiz Khalifa’s new re-working of the tune.
“When I first heard the T-Pain track ‘5 o’clock In The Morning’, I was really impressed by how well he interpreted my song ‘Who’d Have Known’,” Allen said. “The ironic thing about this was that I had re-worked Take That’s ‘Shine’ by writing a brand new lyric to their song – which became ‘Who’d Have Known’. So Take That’s original song continues to have legs by being re-written, twice over.
“I heard a story that T-Pain first heard my song when he was stuck on hold, when ringing up an Apple store, and that he had no idea who I was or who was singing the song, but after he hung up he went on a mission to find out who recorded the song. I love '5 O'clock In The Morning'! It’s absolutely brilliant, and I’m really flattered by what he did to my original track!”
