T-Pain Tops BET Award Nominees

Tossing his vocoder-laced voice on top of almost every hit in 2007 has earned T-Pain five BET Award nominations. The singer grabbed nods in the best collaboration category with Chris Brown ("Kiss Kiss"), Kanye West ("Good Life") and Flo Rida ("Low"). He was also recognized in the Video of the Year category.

Usher, Lil Wayne, Mary J. Blige and Nelly, who are all set to hit the stage at the star-studded award show, helped announce the nominations on the network's video countdown show '106 & Park.'

West and Keyshia Cole snagged three nods each, while Flo Rida, Alicia Keys and Blige earned two nominations.

BET is also set to honor legendary soul singer Al Green with a lifetime achievement award. Quincy Jones will be recognized for his humanitarian work. The BET Awards will air June 24 in Los Angeles.
