Mark Zuckerberg just released an acoustic version of 'Get Low' with T-Pain
Do you love your wife? Have you commissioned a statue of her? Have you recorded an acoustic version of the breakthrough crunk song playing on your first date? Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg has.
"'Get Low' was playing when I first met Priscilla at a college party, so every year we listen to it on our dating anniversary. This year I worked with @tpain on our own version of this lyrical masterpiece. Sound on for the track and also available on Spotify. Love you P ❤️" Zuckerberg wrote on Instagram along with a carousel of photos of him and his wife, Priscilla, and pictures of him and T-Pain in the studio, presumably working on the track.
He posted a few videos of her reacting to the acoustic song on his Instagram story, in which she mostly just laughs. In a video Priscilla posted on her Instagram Story, Mark asks, "Is that the most romantic thing I've done or what?"

"It's so romantic," she says. "Twenty-one years later I can't get quite as low, but it brings back a lot of fun memories."
You can even listen to the song on Spotify. (It's listed under Zuck and T-Pain's duo moniker, Z-Pain.)
Zuckerberg has many flaws but his public admiration of his wife is not one of them. It feels so nice to see a tech giant like their partner that it almost doesn't matter if it's a PR strategy or not.
Does he love his wife so loudly because he loves his wife or because it makes him look good to the public? We will probably never really know. The man is worth $200 billion. If he wanted to, he could have forced a reunion of Lil Jon & the East Side Boyz to preform a private rendition of the song. But he chose to make this single public.
