“Tallahassee Pain,” better known as T-Pain, received the Key to the City on Sunday morning at the Walker Ford Community Center on Tallahassee’s Southside.<\/p>\n

The six-time Grammy award-winning artist returned to his hometown to celebrate the city’s bicentennial celebration.<\/p>\n

Tallahassee Mayor John Dailey and other city leaders, recognized T-Pain for his contributions to music and his commitment to the community.<\/p>\n

“Let’s welcome our native son home,” said Commissioner Dianne Williams-Cox. “We are so proud of you. I am pleased to be apart of making this happen. It was truly a team effort.”<\/p>\n

In addition to receiving the key to the city, the City of Tallahassee honored the Leon County native on Sunday morning with the renaming of Pasco Street (between Tucker Street and Orange Avenue) to “T-Pain Lane.”<\/p>\n

The new street signs officially went up last Friday.<\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n<\/p>\n

“This is an honor,” T-Pain said onstage. “I represent my city everywhere I go. I want people to know that you can make it from anywhere.”<\/p>\n

The hip-hop producer and song-writer will be performing later today at the Tallahassee Bicentennial Festival.<\/p>\n

The event will be located at the Adderley Amphitheater at Cascades Park. The festival includes the unveiling at 4 p.m. of a special state historical marker commemorating Tallahassee’s 200th anniversary. <\/p>\n
