Facebook's Mark Zuckerberg just dropped a song with T-Pain

Sorry to say we're not joking.

Mark Zuckerberg has collaborated with US music star T-Pain on a cover of Get Low by rap group Lil Jon and the East Side Boyz.

The Facebook founder said he recorded the track, credited with the band name Z-Pain, as a tribute to his wife, Priscilla Chan, on their dating anniversary.

"Get Low was playing when I first met Priscilla at a college party, so every year we listen to it on our dating anniversary," the entrepreneur wrote on Instagram.

"This year I worked with T-Pain on our own version of this lyrical masterpiece."

Zuckerberg told followers the track was available on Spotify, signing off the post with "Love you P", referencing his wife.

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

The entrepreneur shared Chan's reaction to the song on his Instagram story, in which she laughed and described it as "so romantic".

"Twenty-one years later, I can't get quite as low, but it brings back a lot of fun memories," she said.

Meanwhile, singer-songwriter and music producer T-Pain, real name Faheem Najm, wrote on Instagram: "Z-Pain has arrived ... Get Low by Zuck and me out now."

Get Low was originally released in 2002 by Lil Jon and The East Side Boyz.
