With their two most recent collaborations gaining airplay and chart
positions, T-Pain and Lil Wayne’s proposed collaborative effort also
continues to build momentum.

The T-Wayne project has even gained the support and involvement of
several high profile producers, T-Pain told us during a recent
interview promoting his third studio album, Thr33 Rings.

“That’s going down. Heavily,” T-Pain told us promising that this
project won’t go the way of other rumored superstar collaborations.

“We’ve already got like 25 songs,” T-Pain revealed. “It’s going down
after my album drops. Could be the beginning of next year, like
January/February.”

Now, with Timbaland and Pharrell Williams having voiced an interest in
joining the project, T-Pain says he hopes to bring in superstar
rapper/producer Kanye West.

T-Pain and West’s last major collaboration, “Good Life,” won a Grammy Award in 2008 for Best Rap Song.

Throughout the summer, both T-Pain and Lil Wayne have confirmed their
desire to create a joint project, capitalizing on the success they’ve
had with hit singles like DJ Khaled’s “I’m So Hood” and more recently
“Got Money” and “Can’t Believe It,” from Tha Carter III and Thr33 Ringz
respectively.

However, T-Pain says the project may be delayed by label red tape,
especially if all three multi-platinum producers get involved.

But ultimately, T-Pain says he is determined to deliver the project to the fans.

“If anything, we ain’t making no goals [for the date],” T-Pain told us.
“If we really gotta do it as an album and all those labels gotta work
together, it’ll come out like, two years from now. [So] if it just
falls into a bunch of leaks or if it falls into a mixtape, [that’s
fine]. We might just take the songs we’ve got [and say]: ‘Here you go
world. T-Wayne project. Right up. For free.”
