Frylock Sings Autotune, Shawty!

You can thank this man for the robot melodies you will hear on your next Aqua Teen tweeking adventure.

Aqua Teen Hunger Force on Adult Swim is a niche show for a segmented niche audience, meaning not everyone will get what's happening and it caters to a small amount of people. In fact, if you're not a habitual acid-laced, purple-leaf chronic smoker, then this show will not make sense to you. Try watching the show clear-eyed and sober. The best you'll do as far as understanding this show is failed impressions of Meatwad and Carl the neighbor.

With that said, Tallahassee Pain, a.k.a. T-Pain, will appear as Frylock in a live-action episode of the show. Hm. It's somewhat fitting, though, because the guy who voices Frylock is black and they got the closest person is black and could look like a french fry box given the right clothes. Pain is virtually a robot singer with his crazy autotune, which essentially turns the worst of singers into opera versions of the Lost in Space robot. And if his robotic vocals aren't enough, he looks like the ringmaster of a circus for poor, disadvantaged, inner-city youths. He also, apparently, is a fan of the fast food mystery solvers. (They haven't solved a mystery in five seasons.)

Entertainment Weekly "exclusively" posted news of the Aqua Teen ep, which includes a stranger looking Master Shake, a close to perfect replica of Carl the neighbor, and Meatwad as a big red rubber exercise ball. (WTF?)

I thought this was stange news considering T-Pain makes Lil' Jon look like he's on Ritalin. Anyways, here's an added bonus. T-Pain and Justin Timberlake, who is not in the live action Aqua Teen, at least to my knowledge, together in a hot song:


Here's an added, added bonus. An introduction to Aqua Teen in the worst possible way, and that is "Hand Banana Rape":
