Inspiring artists can submit their music at http://www.ourstage.com/go/tpain for a chance to record a single with T-Pain that will be distributed through his online label, Nappy Boy Digital.

“Thanks to the Internet, this is a new day and age for artists hoping to be heard,” says T-Pain. “That’s what inspired me to form Nappy Boy Digital. This is a label designed to break down barriers and introduce new voices to the masses. I’m looking forward to working with OurStage to find an exciting new artist and take him or her to the next level.”

“We are thrilled to work with an accomplished artist like T-Pain. It continues to be our priority to work with top-notch artists and production companies who graciously offer insight and professional opportunities to OurStage artists,” said Ben Campbell, CEO, OurStage. “We strive to further enhance the value of OurStage through key partnerships that are mutually beneficial to both our artists and industry professionals.”
