Thankfully for him, T-Pain was not only willing to help but was an enthusiastic collaborator throughout the whole process. It all began when Gabriel Silvan, a high school student, reached out to the rapper via Twitter to help him with his senior quote. T-Pain gamely replied with a quote that embodied much of [his style as a musical artist](http://time.com/4120176/t-pain-autotune-npr/). > [](https://twitter.com/TPAIN/status/809630132671512576) Silvan used the quote and once the yearbook was handed out, he sent T-Pain the completed result. > [](https://twitter.com/GxbrielSilvxn/status/871881439947522048) T-Pain, for his part, was beyond pleased that his quote was used for the student’s yearbook. > [](https://twitter.com/TPAIN/status/871882120347758592) Silvan, however, might have been the most excited about the entire experience. > [](https://twitter.com/DRYRAlN/status/871911101968953344) > [](https://twitter.com/DRYRAlN/status/871886621175455744) It looks like the old adage is true: ask and you shall receive. ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/4813066/t-pain-senior-yearbook-quote/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/4813066/t-pain-senior-yearbook-quote/"},"headline":"Rapper T-Pain Gave This Student His Yearbook Quote So Now He's Set for Life","datePublished":"2017-06-09T20:51:12.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:44:22.443Z","description":"\"People don't think it be like it be, but it do\"","url":"https://time.com/4813066/t-pain-senior-yearbook-quote/","keywords":["Newsfeed","celebrities","viral","twitter"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt4a3462f3b8811a4e/6988d114fb4eac3e3489261d/t-pain-senior-quote.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Cady Lang","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/cady-lang/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt4a3462f3b8811a4e/6988d114fb4eac3e3489261d/t-pain-senior-quote.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"Spotify/ All Def Digital Traffic Jams Premiere Party","caption":"Spotify/ All Def Digital Traffic Jams Premiere Party","creditText":"Andrew Toth—Getty Images for Spotify","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/time-section-newsfeed/","name":"Newsfeed"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/4813066/t-pain-senior-yearbook-quote/","name":"Rapper T-Pain Gave This Student His Yearbook Quote So Now He's Set for Life"}}]}] ```
