February 26, 2008 - 12:00am
By Maurice Chammah and Maggie Prendergast Maggie: This will be an unbiased review because both reporters had never heard of T-Pain. Therefore, we had no preconceived notions and can just judge his Cornell appearance.

Maurice: T-Pain was nominated for a Grammy in 2008 for “Best R&B Performance By A Duo Or Group” and indeed, he has built a reputation on being “that singing guy” next to Akon, Kanye West and Chris Brown, among others. At this show, sadly, he failed to convince anybody that he was marketable as a solo artist.

Maggie: The show opened not with DJ UNK (to many peoples’ surprise) but with True 2 Life. True 2 Life is a band composed of upbeat Cornell alumni. Their performance was nice because they talked us up about Cornell in Risley Hall.

Maurice: True 2 Life is exactly what old-school hip hop is all about. They had the stellar early ’90’s beats. They had songs about how great they are (“You think I’m hot now? You ain’t even seen me. Just wait ’til my face is poppin’ on TV”).

They sounded like a bunch of friends hanging out in bright, trendy clothing. They had break dancers. I couldn’t see their shoes but those were probably pretty snazzy too — let’s just say they were Adidas or Nikes (Reebok?). (more…)
