T-Pain is eyeing a Sept. 30 release for his third album, "Thr33 Ringz", which will be released by Konvict Muzik/Zomba. The first single, "Snap You Fingers" featuring Lil' Wayne, is expected to hit radio next month.
According to a Zomba spokesperson, a video for "Snap Yo Fingers" is in the works and T-Pain is currently hard at work producing the new album with Akon.
This week's Hot 100 chart boasts three songs featuring T-Pain, including Flo Rida's breakout single "Low," which sits at No. 16 after 27 weeks.
The R&B singer garnered five BET Awards nominations last week, including nods for best collaboration for his work with Chris Brown ("Kiss Kiss"), Kanye West ("Good Life") and Flo Rida ("Low").
"Epiphany," T-Pain's 2007 album, has sold 819,000 copies in the United States, according to Nielsen SoundScan.

KARDI SETS THE RECORD STRAIGHT
Following reports of Akon's past, SOHH caught up with new Konvict Music signee, Kardinal Offishall, to set the record straight on the allegations and to shed light onto the Canadian MC's upcoming release.
According to Kardinal, the reason Akon's criminal record doesn't reflect the troubled past the singer has depicted on wax may be because the R&B star has spent a lot of money to have his record cleared.
"When I first met Kon, I didn't know he wasn't allowed into Canada because of the criminal record that he had," Kardinal admitted. "Now he's able to travel to Canada, Australia, to all types of different places, because he spends a lot of money to have his record expunged."
"What that means is that there's no way Akon could travel unless he was able to deal with his record and get a lot of that removed," he continued, "he wouldn't be able to be such a big international artist if he didn't get it removed."
At that same time Kardinal thinks the media spends too much time dwelling on the negative.
"It doesn't matter who you are, whether you're a rapper, singer or actress it really seems that everything is just designed to try and pull people down," Kardinal explained. "The thing that I like about Akon is that it seems as if he's bulletproof because no matter what is thrown at him, he's able to deal with it."
Kardinal has a message to the media when dealing with such issues.
"Instead of worrying about how real his criminal past has been, they should report on the stuff that he's done now, providing aid to Senegal or working with Wyclef to aid folks in Haiti," he added. "They don't report on that sh*t. They just worry about how real he's keeping it and how many years he did in jail."
Kardinal will release his fourth studio album Not 4 Sale this July.

RAY L NEWS
Akon protégé and Geffen R&B rising star Ray Lavender´s hot new single Stay, written by R&B star Tank was the #1 most added at Urban radio last week. The lead single to Lavender's self-titled debut album, Stay, is an ode to women where Ray speaks on dedication in relationships despite the daily challenges. This is Ray's anthem of unconditional love. Ray Lavender, the album is due for release summer 2008.
The singer recently shot the video for the Stay, which was directed by Eric White who directed videos for Chris Brown, Ruben Studdard, and Bobby Valentino.
Stay follows a wild performance on Showtime at the Apollo where Ray Lavender was literally pulled from the stage after a sexy performance of his street single and underground hit, Donkey Kong.
Ray Lavender is currently doing spot dates across the country promoting his debut album.
