T-Pain's hometown of Tallahassee honored the Grammy-winning artist with several recognitions, including renaming a portion of Pasco Street to 'T-Pain Lane.' The renamed street holds special significance as it was part of his daily route from Nims Middle School to Walker Ford Community Center during his childhood.
