T-Pain Announces ‘The TP20 Tour’ With a Show at Radio City: A Celebration of 20 Years in the Game

Hip-hop and R&B fans, brace yourselves—T-Pain is hitting the road! The Grammy-winning icon has officially announced his “TP20 Tour,” a nationwide celebration marking 20 years of musical dominance, innovation, and unforgettable hits. Among the major stops? A marquee performance at Radio City Music Hall in New York City, set to be one of the tour’s biggest highlights.

Since storming the scene in 2005 with his debut Rappa Ternt Sanga, T-Pain has transformed from a regional Florida artist into a global innovator. Tracks like “Buy U a Drank,” “I’m Sprung,” “Bartender,” and “Can’t Believe It” helped popularize the Auto-Tune sound and defined a generation of hip-hop/R&B crossovers. With two Grammy Awards and countless features across genres—from Kanye West to Lil Wayne—T-Pain’s influence stretches far and wide. The TP20 Tour is his way of giving fans a retrospective experience, with a curated setlist spanning his full catalog.

According to early press releases, the tour will be “a sonic time machine,” revisiting major eras of T-Pain’s music career with live vocals, fresh arrangements, and some surprise guests. Fans can expect classics like “Buy U a Drank,” “I’m N Luv (Wit a Stripper),” and “Up Down,” alongside underrated gems from albums like Three Ringz and Epiphany. The tour will also feature behind-the-scenes storytelling, cinematic visuals, and interactive moments with the crowd. T-Pain even hinted at tributes to artists he’s collaborated with over the years. His upcoming Radio City Music Hall performance is already generating major buzz. The venue, known for its historic architecture and world-class acoustics, will be the perfect backdrop for what T-Pain promises will be a “night of nostalgia, love, and pure energy.”

The TP20 Tour will run from July through October 2025, with stops in major cities including Los Angeles, Atlanta, Houston, Miami, Chicago, Philadelphia, and, of course, New York City on September 14 at Radio City Music Hall. Tickets are available now via T-Pain’s official website and major ticketing platforms. VIP upgrades and limited-edition tour merch are also on sale for fans who want to relive the T-Pain era in full.

In a post to his 6.3 million Instagram followers, T-Pain shared his excitement, writing, “20 YEARS. Wow. I’m beyond grateful for everyone who’s rocked with me through it all. This tour is for Y’ALL. Let’s celebrate life, love, the glow-up, and good music. See you soon ❤️🎤 #TP20”

Whether you're a die-hard fan or just want to relive the golden age of Auto-Tune hits, the TP20 Tour promises to be one of 2025’s most exciting musical events. Don’t miss the chance to celebrate two decades of hits, history, and hard-earned legacy with one of the most influential artists of our time.
