Watch: T-Pain Performs '5 O'Clock' on 'Jay Leno', Tinie Tempah Rocks 'X Factor USA'
T-Pain's latest single, the Lily Allen-sampled '5 O'Clock' keeps gaining radio spins, and increasing its digital sales in the US which is translating in a non-stop rise on the Billboard Hot 100 over the past few weeks - The first single from T-Pain's forthcoming album "rEVOLVEr" (Dec. 6th) currently sits at #11 on the US Singles chart, and no one doubts its entry on the competitive Top 10 is about to happen. T-Pain's last successful single was the Lil' Wayne-assisted "Can't Believe It" which peaked at #7 in the US back in 2008! I'm happy for T-Pain, this '5 O'Clock' song is just pure brilliance despite all the auto-tune. So kudos to him! The American star finally performed the single for the first time on TV last night on 'The Tonight Show with Jay Leno'. New mom Lily Allen of course did not attend the performance, but T-Pain and the female replacement did a good job anyways. How EPIC would it be though to see Lily Allen performing '5 O'Clock' with T-Pain one day? Me wants to see thaaaaaaaaat!
After the disappointment his last single "Till I'm Gone" was, British rapper Tinie Tempah cuts to the chase and is unleashing all the power of his debut single "Pass Out" in America. The 23-year-old MC kicked off the promotion on last night's results show of 'The X Factor USA'. Tinie smashed it!! Are you Americans ready to "Pass Out"!? This song deserves big success there! It's crazy hot!
What do YOU think of these performances?
