Mark Zuckerberg recently hit the studio to set the bar high for anniversary gifts.
In a post on Instagram on Wednesday, the 40-year-old Meta founder and CEO announced a surprise for his 39-year-old wife Priscilla Chan. The song “Get Low” by T-Pain was playing when Zuckerberg and Chan first met at a Harvard party, and Zuckerberg mentioned in the post that they listen to it every year on the anniversary of their relationship.
However, this year the musical soundtrack sounded a little different – Zuckerberg recorded his own version of “Get Low” and released it on Spotify, Tidal, Apple Music and Deezer too, as a gift to Chan.

Zuckerberg's auto-tuned voice features heavily on the 3-minute-28-minute acoustic track, which he recorded with T-Pain. T-Pain has about a 30-second presence, or verse, on the track; the rest is all Zuckerberg. The two collaborated under the mash-up name Z-Pain.
“This year I worked with @tpain on our version of this lyrical masterpiece,” Zuckerberg wrote in an Instagram post that showed him in the studio with T-Pain. “Sound on for the song and also available on Spotify. I love you P ❤️”
Zuckerberg common Chan's reaction to the gift on his Instagram story. She laughed when she heard the song and called it “so romantic”.
“21 years later, I can't be that low, but it brings back a lot of fun memories,” she said.

This isn't the first out-of-the-box gift Zuckerberg has given Chan. In August, he presented her with one turquoise statue at least 7 meters high yourself. The statue depicts Chan barefoot and in mid-stride, wrapped in a shiny silver robe.
“Bringing back the Roman tradition of making sculptures of your wife,” Zuckerberg has written in an Instagram post at the time.
Zuckerberg is the third richest person in the world at the time of writing, with a total net worth 205 billion dollars.
