    T-Pain is a minstrel. That chain should simply say “Big ASS Fool.” Money’s not that good that he has to waste it on something so senseless. He’s an idiot!

    Lol That was really cute. CMT knows how to bring in ratings, unlike MTV & BET, both award shows have been lackluster for the past few years

    I wish black floks (some of us) would just stop puttin all this money into jewels specially men with those ghetto azz chains; I dont care if its hop hop or not, OMG I just hate it! Invest the money or somethin’! But big azz ‘diamond’ chains? Like Soulja or T-pain, it’s lame to me! Even though youre a big fan or big chains there are some actually good lookin and less ghetto SMH

    Damn shame some people are that fortunate to spend money on big ass chains and children are starving all over the world. Also does he know we are in a RECESSION? How about giving back? Well I guess it’s his money he can do what he wants with it but he looks like a damn fool if ya ask me.

    @ #13- That’s what I’m saying. It’s sad but true that SOME of our black men don’t use their mind and ivest. WTF a chain gon’ do? That’s why people always end up bankrupt in 10-20 years after without a penny to their name, SMDH. Hey I’m not saying don’t enjoy your cash but do something worthwhile with that money, invest in the NBA (Jay), set up a school (Oprah), set up a charity fund (Ludacris) etc. There’s so many other paths he could go down and get even more money, that will set him and his family up for life. Damn shame.

    Some black people need to come harder.

    LMAO!!! That was funny! Taylor is so cute (and talentd too)! And #29 stop hating on T.Pain! It’s his goddamn money! He can do whatever he wants with it! He announced on twitter that he put $4 mill in each of his two kids bank accounts before he bought that! (I’m sure he knew people were gonna bitch) And I’m sure he has millions more in his own account! Just cause we see him with that “Big Ass Chain” lol, doesn’t mean that he doesn’t give back to his community! How do we know that he hasn’t given money to charities! And do you honestly think celebs like Oprah, Luda, & Jay (you know he has) haven’t spent money on frivilous shit as well! Maybe not chains, but other non important things! When you are making YOUR OWN money, you have the privlege of spending it however you want! So what if its a recession? Obviously celebs don’t suffer as much as the regular folk! He works hard for it, he earned every dime of it, and he can spend it however he wants! GET OFF HIS DICK! DAMN!!!!

    P.S. For someone with a name like “Fallbackhaters” you sure sound like one!

    I totally agree with #41. I heard that also, and I think he did it for all 3 of his kids. I think alot of celebrities donate money to charities (just not published, especially by the mainstream media that just like putting out the negative) & celebrities also splurge. Hey it’s their money.

    @ #41- LOL. Darling, I see it’s evident you didn’t take the proper time out and read my comment properly. I DIDN’T say he hasn’t given to charity, what I did say was instead of him buying that stupid ass chain he use the money to better use and invest it in something proper. WTF the chain gon’ do for him? By all means (like I previously said), he can use his money on whatever and treat himself but forreal what was the point of the chain? To show he got paper? Yeah we know. To show he’s got the biggest chain? To show off? A ghetto ass mess that’s what he is. And if me stating my opinion on this dumbness means I’m ‘hating’ then so be it.

    ok for those of ya’ll that are ashamed, be ashamed that Taylor Swift did a better job “rapping” than a majority of the so-called rappers. that’s what you should be ashamed about. (weak rappers especially). and she did it all without even cursing. LOL
    calm down, take a pill. it was all in fun.
