There’s nothing better than a Frosty from Wendy’s — except maybe a free Frosty from Wendy’s. That’s why the beloved chain wants to “buy” you a (free) Frosty to celebrate the start of summer, and the company has tapped rapper T-Pain to make it happen.

Starting June 5, fans can score a free small Frosty with any purchase made in the app or via the Wendy’s website. The offer is valid through June 21 (aka the first day of summer), which means you can kick off the season a little early.

The classic Chocolate and seasonal Strawberry Frosties will be up for grabs, so make sure to choose your flavor wisely. BTW, the offer is only valid at participating locations, and account registration is required to snag the goodie.

So where exactly does T-Pain fit into all of this? Well, to celebrate the promo, Wendy’s teamed up with the rapper to remix his 2007 hit “Buy U A Drank” into the sweetest song of the summer, called “Buy U A Frosty.

In the remixed version, the artist calls himself “Fros-T-Pain,” because duh, and drops bars like “Yes, I’ll take two Frosties, let’s enjoy, you and me.”

In true T-Pain fashion, the producer even transforms a Wendy’s into a club, prompting an employee to remind him, “This is a Wendy’s.”

Though T-Pain won’t actually be buying you a Frosty, scoring the snack for free through the app isn’t too bad, either. But don’t wait too long to snag yours, because the promo is only valid for a limited time.
