"5 O'Clock"
Song

"5 O'Clock" is a song by American R&B artist T-Pain, which serves as the second official single from his fourth studio album, RevolveЯ. Featured on the song as guest vocalists are rapper Wiz Khalifa and the British pop singer Lily Allen.

Background

The song features a sample from Allen's 2009 single "Who'd Have Known", from her album It's Not Me, It's You. "5 O'clock" was released on iTunes on September 27, 2011, and has been released on U.S. Mainstream radio since October 18. The song was the last release by T-Pain under the now-defunct label Jive Records.[1][2] The single was released in Allen's native United Kingdom on 4 December 2011.[3] The official remix to the song features Lily Allen and Puerto Rican duo Wisin & Yandel. The remix was released on iTunes on November 18, 2011.

Music video

Most of the music video was shot in De Wallen, Amsterdam's well-known Red-light district. The video starts with T-Pain waking up at 4:59 due to a noise from his clear smart-phone. He wakes up in a club, to a text from his love interest, played by the voice of Lily Allen. Allen is portrayed (visually) in the video by someone else, due to the fact that she was unable to participate in shooting due to pregnancy and was taking a hiatus from her music career. As T-Pain is seen walking home, he runs into Wiz Khalifa, literally, and drops his phone, but he picks it up and continues to walk away. Wiz then raps his verse, and at the end of the video, T-Pain ends up back at his place at 5:01 to greet his girlfriend. The UK version of the video, unlike the one released in the US, uses the shorter radio edit of the song, which cuts T-Pain's second verse.
