Rapper T-Pain (Faheem Rashad Najm) has had to publicly stop playing GTA Online RolePlay games due to his involvement in the development of GTA VI, the next and expected installment from Rockstar Games, scheduled for release in 2025 for PS5 and Xbox Series X|S. This has been recognized by the rapper himself in one of his streamings, where he admitted that his role-playing games in GTA Online have come to an end due to his professional relationship with the franchise, whose involvement has not been disclosed.

Goodbye GTA role-playing. Hello GTA VI

“I used to be on NoPixel, and then I started working on the fucking, on GTA 6, and they told me I couldn’t do RP any more because it kind of goes against,” the rapper admitted in reference to his role-playing streaming in GTA Online. “They had this whole speech, like, ‘What if somebody took your album and re-recorded it, and more people were listening to that?’ Then I’m like, OK, I kind of get that, but I was having a good time! All right, that’s fine,” the rapper explained about his dialogues with Rockstar Games on the matter.

Regardless, the rapper took Rockstar Games’ directives a little hard, though he admits that working on GTA VI was above all else: I start working on the game with them, and then they teamed up with the people that kind of like make the RP shit!,” referring to Rockstar Games’ purchase of the FiveM role-playing team in GTA V and RedM in Red Dead Redemption 2.

“And I’m like, wait a minute, what? What the fuck? Y’all told me I couldn’t do this shit, then y’all team up with the people that enable the RP? Anyways, whatever!,” concludes T-Pain, accepting the deal and turning his attention to his mysterious role in GTA VI. However, fans of the rapper and his streams claim that he has confirmed the return of RolePlay in GTA VI, which seems like the most normal thing in the world after such acquisitions by Rockstar Games.
