Plies Addresses Alleged Beef W/ T-Pain, "I'mma Take The High Road Every Time"

Southern rap star Plies has spoken on his relationship with Grammy-winning singer T-Pain, who allegedly called the rapper "disrespectful."

In a radio interview on Tampa's "Orlando and the Freakshow," the Florida-bred rapper clarified his relationship with the singer and the "disrespectful" label he's received for not collaborating more with Pain.

"I think I'm probably the most respecful artists in the business and the game," Plies said. "It's been several dudes who have put me into their situation and I'mma take the high road every time because I understand how important this is...I have a bigger picture I'm trying to accumulate on a national level."

Despite promising to avoid any rap beefs for the time being, Plies did claim there could be a situation where he would address all confrontations.

"One day, if it's God's will, and I'm not hot anymore, I'mma address all of this," he said. "But while I'm luke warm right now, I ain't got time to deal with it."

While thanking Pain for helping him launch his career with the song "Shawty," Plies also pointed out the singer's ironic reception from hip-hop, most notably not appearing on a major hip-hop magazine.

"I tell people all the time, in his defense, that for a dude to be on 40 records, for a dude to be a monster at radio -- you never have seen Pain on the cover of a magazine," he added. "I feel it's because people don't respect what he's brought to this industry."

Wow... you must not know how hip hop goes... shit is like wwe what he saying is he don't need to attract any negative attention cause he is only lucky enough to go gold. And the day he doesn't go gold with an album he will start dissing people to regain a buzz. Which is what every rapper does. Nigga you must be crazy if you think every rapper that rap about the streets is still in them. Only dumb rappers (Gucci Mane) that's why he in jail now

I can't stand when people compare T-Pain to Roger Troutman. Let me explain this again for the one millionth time! Roger Troutman used a TALK BOX! T-Pain uses a VOCODER (Auto-Tunes)! I have a talk box and that shit takes years to learn how to use properly. Auto-Tunes on the other hand is the easiest shit ever, all you do is sing and it'll put you in tune automatically. So people with no skills can use Auto-Tunes.

What i mean by roger started it all, i meant he was one of the pioneers in the so called ''voice changing effect'', i never said he was the first artist to use autotunes since he did not, because cher had been using something similar to autotunes before t-pain.

you're right, i think Cher was the first person to make a HIT using autotune, and they only did that by accident, they said they were messing around and it sounded great..
