If you cherish the original, high-energy version of Lil Jon’s “Get Low,” you might want to steer clear of this unexpected cover by T-Pain and Mark Zuckerberg, aka Z-Pain. Their rendition transforms the iconic party anthem into a slow, acoustic ballad, complete with Zuckerberg’s auto-tuned vocals.
The duo’s take on the song, which includes a cameo from T-Pain himself, is a surprising departure from the original’s upbeat tempo and catchy lyrics. Zuckerberg shared the song on Instagram, explaining that it was a special gift for his wife, Priscilla: “‘Get Low’ was playing when I first met Priscilla at a college party, so every year we listen to it on our dating anniversary. This year I worked with @tpain on our own version of this lyrical masterpiece.”
While the sentiment behind the cover is sweet, the execution might leave some listeners scratching their heads. The song’s unconventional arrangement and Zuckerberg’s vocal performance have certainly sparked conversation online, with many expressing surprise and amusement.
