Has anyone ever blasphemously attempted to autotune ODB? I want to hear this travesty.

― Philip Nunez, Thursday, 4 December 2008 18:41 (seventeen years ago)

shit i feel like an idiot for feeling like an expert on this

im gonna have to go w/ 50

― jordan s (J0rdan S.), Thursday, 4 December 2008 18:41 (seventeen years ago)

kanye is pretty fuckin bad though

i kind of like how big burly dudes sound - or maybe raws, birdman and zoe just bring the lols

― jordan s (J0rdan S.), Thursday, 4 December 2008 18:42 (seventeen years ago)

Yeah as much as I'm tempted to vote for Wayne or Kanye based on the sheer amount and ubiquity of their AutoTune tracks, 50 probably sounds the worst. Either him or Lil Kim, but she sounds awful all the time now anyway.

re: the ODB idea - I know a producer who did a "Lookin' Boy" remix with all the original vox filtered through AutoTune and it sounded pretty crazy, so I guess it's easy to do that with pre-existing tracks as long as you have the a cappella.

― max (some dude), Thursday, 4 December 2008 18:45 (seventeen years ago)

Examples, please.

Diddy

― Yentl vs Predator (blueski), Thursday, 4 December 2008 18:48 (seventeen years ago)

I almost included Diddy cause I saw him say he was using it on his next album, but I didn't know if he used it on anything released already.

― max (some dude), Thursday, 4 December 2008 18:50 (seventeen years ago)

young buck was fucking weird

― jordan s (J0rdan S.), Thursday, 4 December 2008 18:52 (seventeen years ago)

Kid Rock.

Naw, Kanye sounds pretty cool. Especially when he growls real rough so the autotune sounds like it doesnt't know what the fuck to do.

― ianmaxwell, Thursday, 4 December 2008 23:25 (seventeen years ago)

That one track I heard w Fiddy doing it was hilarious "a-wo-wo-wo-wo-wo-wo"

― Ringtone Tycoon (The Reverend), Friday, 5 December 2008 02:25 (seventeen years ago)

yeah "Rider Pt. 2" is pretty entertaining in its awfulness

― Prom Dressantino (some dude), Friday, 5 December 2008 02:27 (seventeen years ago)

Where is BLIZZARD MAN???

― novaheat, Saturday, 6 December 2008 00:03 (seventeen years ago)

Is it uncool to call it a vocoder instead of "autotune"?

― billstevejim, Saturday, 6 December 2008 01:49 (seventeen years ago)

its inaccurate

― deej, Saturday, 6 December 2008 02:07 (seventeen years ago)

so now i must ask for the difference between the 2

one of kanye's worst outfits ever

― Funky House, M.D. (J0rdan S.), Tuesday, 3 March 2009 03:46 (sixteen years ago)

good article is what i meant ftr

― Funky House, M.D. (J0rdan S.), Tuesday, 3 March 2009 03:47 (sixteen years ago)

no it's way funnier to pretend you were half-heartedly defending Time Magazine, "c'mon guys it's not so bad, beats the shit out of Newsweek"

― The Sports Nut (some dude), Tuesday, 3 March 2009 03:48 (sixteen years ago)

Yeah, the article is good. I was just lolling at auto-tune becoming such a big thing that Time had to break it down to an extent.

― 51 things I hate about you (The Reverend), Tuesday, 3 March 2009 03:52 (sixteen years ago)

fwiw, I subscribe to and am pretty happy w/ Time.. not a hater

― 51 things I hate about you (The Reverend), Tuesday, 3 March 2009 03:53 (sixteen years ago)

you are on Time's side
