T-Pain | The Comeback | From Depression To Twitch Exposing Industry

Before They Were Famous - A podcast by Michael McCrudden

Way back when in 1991, LL Cool J opened his hit-single “Mama Said Knock You Out”, with the now-infamous line: “Don’t call it a comeback/I been here for years” – and in our newest video series, we’re going to take that sentiment to a whole new level as we study the rise, fall, and rise again of some of today’s most resilient celebrities in a series we call – what else -- The Comeback! Whether it’s scandal, burn-out, or simply fading away into irrelevancy, the celebrity lifestyle is about as cyclical as they come – what goes up, must inevitably come back down, only to – occasionally -- rise up once again. For our inaugural episode, we’re shining the spotlight on one of the early 21st century's biggest hip-hop stars, T-Pain.
