Mark Zuckerberg releases debut single cover of Lil Jon's 'Get Low' and you have to hear it
Words we never thought we'd hear coming out of his mouth
Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg has released his debut single.
There are some things you likely thought you'd never see, and chances are, Mark Zuckerberg doing a rap was probably one of them. Known as that guy who co-founded Facebook and was played by Jesse Eisenberg in 2010's The Social Network, Zuckerberg is currently the fourth richest man in the world.
While his worth of $196.3 billion trails quite some way behind Elon Musk as the world's richest, Zuck isn't exactly without a dollar or two. For one of the richest men in the world, deciding what to get your significant other for their birthday or your anniversary can't be difficult, I mean, you could literally buy anything. Thankfully, he's come up with a once-in-a-lifetime present for his wife Priscilla Chan.
On November 11, Zuckerberg posted a story on Instagram, posing in a recording studio with none other than T-Pain. Captioning the post with, "It's happening guys," followers were wondering what on Earth the billionaire social media mogul could be doing with the "Can't Believe It" artist.

T-Pain shared his own post saying, "It is time," before we got the big reveal of a rapping Mark Zuckerberg on November 13.
To celebrate his 'dating anniversary' with Chan, Zuckerberg covered Lil Jon's "Get Low", which was apparently playing in the background when the pair met at a Harvard party when they were freshers. Zuckerberg explained the pair listen to it every anniversary, but keen to up the ante in 2024 and prove he's 'down' with the kids, the Meta overlord decided to cover "Get Low".
The heavily auto-tuned version has Zuckerberg spouting the following NSFW lyrics: "From the windows to the walls, till sweat drops down my balls, till all these b*tches crawl,' and 'can I play with your panty line, club owner said I need to calm down, security guard is sweating me now, I got drunk and a motherf**ker threatened me now."
We never thought we'd hear those words come out of his mouth, and to be honest, we probably could've lived the rest of our lives without hearing them.
The comments were soon flooded with responses that ranged between calling it a romantic gesture and cringe.
The official Spotify account sucked up by writing, "Best anniversary gift ever 👏," while T-Pain said, "Happy anniversary! Thanks for letting me be a part of this 🔥"
Not everyone was a fan, as one skeptic said: "Mark Zuckerberg has recorded his own fully explicit version of 'Get Low.' Worst cringe of the year award."
Someone else added: "I thought I've seen it all, until I found out T-Pain and Mark Zuckerberg did an acoustic version of Get Low. Never thought I'd hear Auto-Tune Zuck singing motherf**ker and pantyline, but here we are."
Another wrote: "'Mark Zuckerberg is here writing cringe songs and you can’t even get a text back."
At least Chan was a fan, thanking her husband and concluding: "Can’t get quite as low anymore but more in love and grateful for that love than ever. Love you MZ."
What's next, are we going to hear Musk launch a diss track on Jeff Bezos to Eminem's "Lose Yourself"? Now that, we'd like to listen to!
