When T-Pain’s “Buy U a Drank” was released in 2007, it quickly dominated Billboard’s Hot 100 chart in the U.S., effectively making him a household name. Today, he is revisiting the single that made him a star from inside a Wendy’s.

Remixing “Buy U a Drank” to “Buy U a Frosty,” T-Pain (or Fros-T-Pain) is teaming up with Wendy’s to celebrate the return of the Strawberry Frosty. As part of the promotion, fans will be invited to enjoy a free small Frosty with any purchase.
