T-Pain Forced To Stop Mississippi Valley Fair Concert Due To Rowdy Crowd Throwing Objects Onstage: 'I'm Not A Clown'
It appears rapper T-Pain had to abruptly stop his Mississippi Valley Stream show due to a rowdy crowd who couldn't appreciate 'The Good Life.'
Thursday night in Davenport didn't go as planned for the decorated musician, as reports say concert-goers were extremely unruly throwing bottles and other objects onto the stage. It was about mid-way through his performance when the Tallahassee rapper stopped the show, saying he was no "clown," per 'WQAD.'
"I'm trying my best to ignore the s**t, I'm trying my best to just let it go. But it just — Y'know. After a while it's like... I wanna keep having fun, I f**k with most of yall. It's only a few pieces of s**t out there! We're all having f*****g fun," the artist began.
"I'm not saying that I want to leave. I'm not saying that. I'm not pissed or anything but it's only so much s**t I'm gonna [take] — I'm not a clown. I'm not gonna sit up here and get pies thrown in my face," the musician continued, adding how he didn't want to "be disrespected."
Fans can be heard in the audience screaming in agreement and chanting his name, "T-Pain, T-Pain, T-Pain!"

"Who tf throws stuff at TPain?? He's a national treasure we riding at dawn," a supportive fan responded in the comments on Instagram. "See this was a mature response because im throwing [things] back and now we are playing dodgeball," a second jokingly penned.
T-Pain, real name Faheem Rashad Najm, rose to fame over two decades ago with his first blockbuster hit "I'm Sprung" (2005). The popular musician revealed that his moniker T-Pain represents Tallahassee Pain — referring to his roots and struggles.
The artist is currently touring across country and has 31 upcoming concerts.
His next stop is at Jiffy Lube Live in Bristow, Virginia, on August 21.
