3 shootings, 1,974 blunts and countless ho's later, they decided on the following course of action:
The white kids have been stealing our culture so lets steal theirs back. That brings me to my subject of the day.
Auto-tune.
Ever since the 80's auto-tune and vocoders have been an important part of the "crackers" musical stylings. As of late the indie kids have made this a very important part of their scene. I'm not gonna lie I'm pretty guilty of being a sucker for it occasionally. But it's like once the rap world found out about this everybody's been using it. You would think that the Senate passed a law that 3/4ths of rap must contain auto-tune with the amount of it you hear. I'm sure by now everybody has heard Jamie Foxx's "Alcohol." After multiple times of hearing it I can't tell where Jamie's part ends and T-Pain comes in. However I'm going to give a pardon to T-Pain because his the moon-inites hang from his chain and he did "On A Boat", He gets some leeway. Jamie Foxx does not. Did you not see yourself in Ray? You can sing dude!!!! Do you not even know the purpose of auto-tune? It's in the fucking name. It automatically tunes. It's for those who cant sing aka why a lot of indie kids use it.Thats why you shouldn't be using auto-tune weezy. You're a rapper not a singer. All I know is I'm tired of flipping through radio stations and hearing robot after robot. Terminators should terminate not sing.
NO!

YES!

I bow to this. May I add that had I known in the late 80's when I was learnin' my pimp walk, and getting my education through various Matel toys...I would have capitalized on this. Had my little noodle been developed enough into the GENIUS that is "T-Pain" who has made his fortune from sounding like a Speak-n-Spell...I would have rained down on the rap industry in my osh kosh by gosh over-alls and would probably still be a force to be reckoned with. Alas, I was to busy learning that dogs say "woof" and cats say "meow"..and how to properly spell them. If only, if only.
your partner in crime,
