You sound like you were born after 2010, lol. T-Pain is not a prolific rapper because he's not a rapper. He has sung live plenty of times and his real voice is better than 90% of the artist currently on Billboard now. His use of autotune was for the same reason as Cher, he just didn't take the credit for it as she did. The songs he's contributed to the genre of R&B were and still are hits.
