T-Pain comes to Movida Dubai

Movida Dubai is bringing T-Pain to the club on Saturday. The club has recently opened its doors to a fourth night and the singer/songwriter/rapper/producer T-Pain is the first performing artiste to take on the stage this Saturday.

Born Faheem Najm in Tallahassee, Florida, T-Pain turned his bedroom into a mini sonic sanctuary with a keyboard, beat machine and four-track recorder at age 10. That same day he made a beat, rapped over it and hasn’t looked back since. He stepped into the music industry with the rap outfit Nappy Headz who enjoyed moderate success in the early 2000’s with regional anthems Robbery and F.L.A. He started recording his own brand, called Hard & B, for his own listening pleasure. He continued recording as well as directing and editing the video for a street record, a timely reworked version of Akon’s prison life ode Locked Up.

The song grew so popular that some thought it was actually Akon who was borrowing from the dreadlocked songster.

There are no entry charges and the club will be open from 11pm with DJ Mitchell, followed by T-Pain. For VIP and table reservations write to bookings@movida-dubai.com
