T-Pain has been extremely busy, especially since he discovered the other side of his Instagram DM’s. Not long after dropping new music with his friend Kehlani, the Nappy Boy founder is also getting into his acting bag for Lipton Ice Tea’s new series “Have Some Tea With Cousin T.”
On Wednesday (July 14), Lipton dropped the first episode of the new digital series starring Pain as “Cousin T.” Throughout the show, Cousin T pulls up and provides laughs for his family and shows off a slew of “personali-teas.”
The mini-series comes after the Tallahassee native issued a stern rant about how he feels about rising artists riding the waves of more prominent rappers.
“Stop doing that!” Pain screamed during his Instagram Live. “Do something else, you’re not original! Give me some original sh*t!” He continued, “Stop! Just f*cking do something else! God damn it! Do some different music! We have all the sh*t you’re doing. Lil Uzi Vert is already doing it. Lil Baby is already doing it. DaBaby is already doing it. It’s literally two n****s with Baby in their names that’s already doing all the music you want! Do something else!
And doing something else is what Cousin Tea is doing. T-Pain has always set himself apart by being different rather behind the mic or the camera
