Facebook and Meta founder Mark Zuckerberg has made the unusual move from tech entrepreneur to musical artist, thanks to an unusual collaboration with singer T-Pain.

The 40-year-old, who has recently been praised by Donald Trump for “staying out of the election” and saw his plans for a nuclear-powered AI centre scuppered by bees, is now trying his hand at singing .

He and T-Pain have released a cover of the 2002 hip-hop classic “Get Low” by rap group Lil Jon and the East Side Boyz, under the name of Z-Pain, all in tribute to Zuckerberg’s wife, Priscilla Chan.

On Instagram, Zuckerberg wrote: “‘Get Low’ was playing when I first met Priscilla at a college party, so every year we listen to it on our dating anniversary.

He adds: “This year I worked with @tpain on our own version of this lyrical masterpiece. Sound on for the track and also available on Spotify.”

The post included a photo of lyrics, an album cover in which T-Pain and Zuckerberg are both holding up acoustic guitars, and several photographs of the pair in a recording studio.

The US entrepreneur shared his wife’s reaction to the song on his Instagram story, which saw her laughing and describing it as “so romantic”.

Responding in the comments, Chan herself wrote: “Can’t get quite as low anymore but more in love and grateful for that love than ever. Love you MZ.”
