T-Pain Honored by Hometown of Tallahassee with Official Street Designation, Key to the City & Sold-Out Bicentennial Celebration

Over the weekend, GRAMMY® Award-winning artist, producer, songwriter, entrepreneur and global cultural icon T-Pain was celebrated in his hometown of Tallahassee with a street dedication ceremony, a key to the city and a long-awaited, sold-out concert for thousands of fans at Cascades Park.

Sunday served as a celebration and a walk down memory lane for T-Pain (whose T stands for Tallahassee) as he returned home to the city that raised him, surrounded by friends and family. The day kicked off with a portion of Pasco Street designated“T-Pain Lane,” and the ceremony concluded with Mayor John Dailey presenting T-Pain with a golden key to the city.

“He has had a tremendous impact on Tallahassee,” Dailey said. “He’s had a tremendous impact on the kids of Tallahassee, and he’s a great role model and a great example. I’m just proud to celebrate with him today.”

The day’s festivities concluded with a bicentennial concert at The Adderley Amphitheater at Cascades Park that sold out in one week and was hosted by Visit Tallahassee, the tourism arm of Leon County Government. “Everything that went on today was just a dream come true,” said T-Pain from the stage. 

To close out the year, T-Pain will headline the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade and iHeartRadio Jingle Balls in Los Angeles, Miami and Atlanta.
