T-Pain has been teasing his forthcoming album Stoicville: Rise Of The Phoenix for a while, but it’s still a ways off.
To hold fans over, he’s just released a free Gangsta Grillz mixtape called The Iron Way, hosted by DJ Drama and DJ Trendsetter Sense.
The Iron Way features a wide array of celebrity guests, an indicator of just how long T-Pain’s been in the game and how many friends he’s made.

The star-studded mixtape includes appearances from Lil Wayne , The-Dream , Bun B , OG Maco , Big K.R.I.T ., Migos , Audio Push and more, with production from DJ Montay, The-Dream and T-Pain himself.
The-Dream appears on mixtape highlight “Let Ya Hair Down,†a mid-’00s style slow jam. T-Pain goes full Auto-Tune, demonstrating his mastery over the style he first popularized.
The track isn’t all love songs, though. T-Pain demonstrates his range on cuts like “Let Me Through,†a hard-edged collaboration with Lil Wayne that features more rapping than singing.
