MUSIC – Get Lowreleased in 2003, is a major title of the American hip-hop. The song by the group Lil Jon & the East Side Boyz, which ranked at the top of several charts around the world at the time, is known for having revolutionized the crunk genre.
It is also the title that was played in the university evening during which Mark Zuckerberg met Priscilla Chan, the one who would later become his wife, as he recounts in a post published on his Instagram account on Wednesday November 13.
The opportunity for the boss of Meta (Facebook, Instagram) to announce the publication of its own version “of this lyrical masterpiece”in collaboration with rapper T-Pain. “The title is available on Spotify”adds Mark Zuckerberg, for this first improbable breakthrough in the world of music with this duo called Z-Pain.
Autotune
In the track to listen to belowwhose autotune melody is much more suave and less “dirty rap” – this style chaining together sexual allusions – that the original, Mark Zuckerberg is behind the majority of the vocals. T-Pain’s vocals land on backing vocals and a verse. Finally, this acoustic version differs completely from the original.
When it was released more than twenty years ago, Get Low had seen some of its versions censored as the lyrics were full of vulgarities, reminds BFMTV.
Mark Zuckerberg then published in his story the reaction of his wife who listened to the song for the first time. “It’s so romantic.”she laughed.
This year, the boss of Meta seems to have made a change in the way he appears publicly. The proof is with its different look and in particular a less austere haircut, a beard and a tanned complexion which caused a lot of talk on social networks. This summer, he also made another declaration of love to his wife by having them installed in their garden a statue of her represented as the goddess Nikerepresented in the Victory of Samothrace at the Louvre Museum in Paris.
