Auto tune ads



Wow. I thought Jay Z announced the death of autotune, but it's alive.

There's even a facebook app that allows you to sing your status updates via autotune.

This is cool advertising imho.

Death Of Autotune


We're all waiting for Jay-Z's upcoming Blueprint 3 -release. The album was initially said to feature a lot of songs that utilized the voice-altering technology, Jay recently removed all Auto-Tune from BP3, recording 'D.O.A.' instead. Apparently, he's sick of the trend. Well, autotune can be annoying but what's the stuff about dissing tight jeans?

"you boys jeans too tight, you colors too bright, your voice too light. I might wear black for a year straight, I might bring back Versace shades. this ain’t for z100, Ye told me to kill y’all to keep it 1 hundred, this is for hot 97, for Khalid we the best’n, yeah this is just violent, death of autotune, moment of silence."

I have seen the future of rock & rap: Lil Wayne


I must admit I hated when Weezy picked up the guitar last year I saw him playing live. I mean he was on a cocaine-filled Prince-wannabe trip and really tried to play that twanger and he sucked at it.

But his mission to make rock music continues... The song "Prom queen" is pretty amazing: weird drum sounds, a wack guitar lick and too much autotune and Lil Wayne's weird mixture of singing and talking (or rapping?). But it has a killer chorus that makes me wanna listen to this over and over again. Especially those neat pop-influenced vocal harmonies in the end. I guess this is what happens when a rapper starts doing rock. Well, it's a lot better than what happens when a rocker starts to rap.
