T-Pain: "Open the pod bay doors, Vocoder"

October 1, 2008 5:17 p.m. by Matthew Richardson

Whoever knew that T-Pain had such a sense of humor about his crazy reliance on auto-tune? This clip from Funny or Die has T-Pain having some slightly Kubrickian problems with his vocoder. Maybe the funniest part of the clip is when T-Pain suggests that he's just going to sing the song without digital assistance. Lol T-Pain, lol.
