[ObamaRuinedUSA]

[selena3047]

[MrKazo9]

[SugarAddict24]

hahaha cuz i cant take his beautiful voice seriously with those lyrics

[ChaosKirbyoLight]

ya'll call that singing? Sure he can hold some notes (key word SOME) but that nigga couldn't sing his way out of a paper bag

[tidius5]

if this is called singing.. and hes famous.. then im def gonna be as bigg as michael jackson.. so everyone that has a mic can sing now? .. riiiiigh..

[Jarekx2007]

@tidius5 nobody is putting him in the category of michael crawford and lets face it thats not what he sells but i can 100% guarantee he has a 100x better voice than you and every single other auto-tune fake in the industry

[techdad25]

@MasterTrollG Exactly.

[theoneandonlyTHABIBI]

if you call that singing oke it's good but in my ears it's just a dog barking

[amermelons2]

the Buy you a Drink Intro starting at 4:30 was amazing.

I wish there was a studio version

[tinakhal]

@localphenomena - Well then, there can be some pretty deep puddles. Haha jk

[spdyeric]

@localphenomena most singers don't write their songs. blame song writers looking to earn a cheap buck

[lugia70]

@spdyeric ya but artist some cart write there own u cant say that

[TheSphereHunter]

Ok he can sing, but he still sucks balls in every other way. 

[4evadeuce]

ummm Its still autotuned.

[mrinyourservice]

auto tune destroyed music

30 years ago people with real voices used to sing

now almost everybody used auto tune and think they have a good voice.

thumbs up if u agree

[GuzzyFuzzy]

@mrinyourservice lol, u right but no one's agree xD

[iRepresentLondon]

@mrinyourservice yeah but, i like tpain, but i kynda agree wit you as well:/

[DirtyYogurt]

@mrinyourservice

stop listening to pop music, all of a sudden you'll find that "almost everybody" becomes "almost no one"

[georgyorgy2]

@mrinyourservice 30 years ago? Autotune wasn't widely used in pop music until recently.

[THEREALaahil]

@mrinyourservice 30 years ago auto tune was invented...

[hiago10001]

@mrinyourservice but T-pain have a BEAUTIFULL VOICE without autotune, and with autotune he is just...

the best of autotune

[erickrealz]

@mrinyourservice Not necessarily. It just depends if their voice compliments the auto-tune. T-Pain's voice most certainly suits being both auto-tuned and not.

[carbon5146]

haha he doesnt need auto tune

[ZanishDesigns]

still autotune but not that much..

[HateAndPenetrate]

@ZanishDesigns no there isn't any autotune he doesn't use it live, it's just the original song playing in the background

[vanessa131517]

@ZanishDesigns how could he be autotuned if its live? ,':|

[idntevenpic]

@vanessa131517 pretty easy actually the mike goes through the DJ's computer and he can do anything with the song he pleases

[MrBabygoofy]

wats that songs name?

[ssjeminem]

@MrBabygoofy good life



[Jirue7609]

Wow I actually looked this up for laughs. I really don't like the genre but I was just like "Lol I wonder how bad T Pain sounds without autotune." But he actually sounds good... Nice

Black Eyed Peas are basically the worst ever with autotune lol

[CAP084CDC]

Dang..I came here prepared to hate on T-Pain for not being able to sing without being saturated with autotune, but he's actually a decent singer.

[DyVrSitYProductions]

tpain is the only artist that i can stand using autotune. he should still record without autotune because he's actually really good without it.

[MrDamDam14]

The point is that autotune without a good voice and singing skills sounds horrible.

T-Pain is the best at autotune using, and thats cause his voice is awesome.

But he should make also some songs without autotune.

Anyway T-Pain rooocks ! :D

Thumbs up if you agree :)

[PHILLYPHAN423]

What's the last song?

[mymsong]

he can do it.. but lil wayne can't. t-pains a boss =/

[afifmazlan]

@mymsong

lil wayne's a rapper duumbass.

Of course he cant sing

[mymsong]

@afifmazlan lil wayne spits out shit. so shut the fuck up.

[afifmazlan]

@mymsong

lil wayne doesnt make his own music smartass

[mymsong]

@afifmazlan justine biever looks down on lil wayne you piece of shit

[LScenez]

He's not actually singing... he just says "hey! hey! hey!"

[ThatNerdfighter]

everything sounds better without auto tune if u ask me, if theyre so dependent on auto tune, they don't deserve to be famous

[Shaneshinste11]

No hes like drake thier voice sounds fake but we they pefrom it sounds real

[donsocool]

T-Pain is honestly the autotune king..

[Barrelingmonkies]

t-pain needs to do a legit old school rnb cd. i'd buy it

[DanielMusicLife]

autotune sounds amazing thats why people use it.. anybody can take singing lessons.. with all their money. they use autotune because it's amazing and sounds really good.

[dabears5468]

Pain can rap sing produce anything his lyrics are awesome he can do it all really underrated he doesn't get respected as much as he should

[tmanuel44]

@dabears5468 People are so quick to judge. He makes lots of songs using autotune, and it makes sense since he innovated it really, and people give him shit because of it. Those are the same people who don't take the time to listen to his rap songs or the songs he does without autotune or his lyrics in general. They just hate on him because he uses autotune. Nothing but haters who judge before they take the time to actually see what a artist has to offer.

[CrisisCoreGenisis52]

lol he sounds the same with and without

[ryankhan11]

@CrisisCoreGenisis52 r u deaf?

[BlueEonApocalypse]

Well shit he actually can sing. I'm kinda glad he uses it because he wants to.

[aaliyah9991]

He can sing!

[livreparacompor]

T-Pain is a auto tune king! people talk shit about it, but he can use this effect better than everybody

[Optgemakske]

Pain in the ass, thanks for fucking up the music industry gaylords and their mainstream midgeons

[RivenChronic]

lol. he still sounds terribad

[SummerTheFuzzy]

he can make autotune sound better than 99% other people out there

[MiissDee27]

IN YOUR FAAAAACE HATERS.

[kathyaa1231]

He deffinitley doesn't need autotune!!

[BrownFlip7852]

who are those fuckheads with face paint on

[nkjn794]

he not bad!

[giannaluva65]

This is what you consider SINGING?!

lame

[noergaar]

@giannaluva65 Dude just shut up and go hear Justin Bieber..

[giannaluva65]

@noergaar i hate him too

seems to me noen of you know what real talent is...

[dquintanilla10]

@giannaluva65 neon? I see a lack of talent in you HA

[TysonaG]

Whether T-pain has a great voice is irrelevant because in the entertainment industry it's all about how everything comes together (swagger, personality, creativity, etc) besides his voice should be considered within the category of Rock singers - - within this category, you don't need to have a sweet and soft vocal sound . . . example: You can really hear T-pain's true vocal sound in the video clip @ 4:26 . . . that's what I mean.

[TheIpodmaster97]

I'm not exactly a professional singer, I do shows around the mid west for money, and I'm actually good but I learned how to sing from listing to people like T-Pain when he uses auto-tune to force myself to hit the right pitch and even tho I'm good I prefer to use auto-tune to sound different than everybody else that's at the talent shows I do

[xPOLACOx]

T-PAIN SOUNDS WAY BETTER WITHOUT THAT STUPID ROBOTIC VOICE,

[trex7891011]

yea hees good whats the first song there singing

[DJKJSeph]

It's official he can't sing without autotunes

[csusm577]

why does he have insane clown posse look alikes on stage with him?

[1trueNRG]

@csusm577 thr33 ringz... aka a circus... aka HE NEEDS CLOWNS

[VideoLogDotCom]

i didn't knew he had talent he sings so bad in his other songs!!

[NYLI24]

glad to know he can actually sing n he only uses auto-tune because he WANTS to. cant be said for a lot of these pop singers who only sound good in the studio though

[AznBust3r]

T-Pain needs to make a song with Drake

[1trueNRG]

@AznBust3r There is one... but someone else is in it... I don't remember really

[videofreakmanic123]

umm...t pain...just go back to your autotune. right now. 

[RedxLilxSleepy]

@videofreakmanic123 what are u talking about hes 100x better then lil wayne with out auto tune and 1000x better with auto tune just sayin

[videofreakmanic123]

@RedxLilxSleepy not..........really....

[videofreakmanic123]

wow...is that possible? it has to be a fraud! ITS A MYTH ! GOVERNMENT CONSPIRICY

[sparkANDshimmer]

wowww - HE HAS TALENT!!

[kratosmurphy]

People are fucking idiots. He sounds good and can rap well without auto tune. He doesnt need it at all, he used it extensively to try to sound different then every other rapper but they all started using that shit...

[AuTToTune]

1st of all it shouldnt matter if he can sang he aint a singer! long as it soun gud jus listen 2 it!! damn

[kewlchic214]

he sound dha same!.

[cruenikkisixx]

i think he sounds pretty cool

without auto tunee

[cubanito411]

woooow lip singing!!!!!!!!!!!

[Mircurial]

i love how half these retards dont even know the purpose of auto-tune. auto-tune was originally created to assist the vocalists if they just were consistently hitting the note like 10 cents flat or sharp. if you have the "correction speed" knob on slow-medium it sounds natural. t-pain uses it not to correct his pitch, but to add a different effect to his voice. he does this with the knob turned to fast. whats wrong is singers who dont even try to sing properly but use it for the easy way out.

[MasakoXer]

@Mircurial

no dude. Before auto tune was even invented, there was talent. People practiced their asses off to make them sound good. They didn't need a fucking MACHINE to get their pitch up to what they wanted, they practiced. If you can sing that good without the dumbass autotune, then you got some talent on you.

About T-pain, he can't sing for shit, you might as well just have a robot doing his "singing" instead of a person. It's not talent, it's making the machine look good, instead of you.

[cafcjames]

T-Pain is no worse than most other artists and what is worse, an artists who uses auto-tune to make it sound like their own voice, even tho they cant sing or t-pain who uses vocal effects on auto-tune? At least he's not a pretender.

[rockmuscfan]

now lets go listen to some music.

[CrarrotFace]

No he cant.. LOL

[tinsunga]

who caresss .. I LOVE IT :)

[gorilamagro]

given the rotten piece of shit that is his music, I'd say his hability to sing is irrelevant

[bandages13]

don't think of auto tune as fake, think of it as an extension of your voice, stop hatin t pain cause he's a pretty cool dude once ya get to know him

[rabitshadow]

stop fucking defending him, all recording artists use auto tune, but this guy takes it wayy to far.

If this video was better quality youd see a shitload of miming, also his lyrics are shit

[pmxperience]

All professional recording artists use some sort of auto-tune. They may not use it to the same extent as t-pain, but they all use it. Take it from a recording engineer, it is impossible not to use it in today's pop sounding culture.

[jackassasos]

Thanks N4nav ur totally right !

[YehLikeThat]

he cant sing for shit thats why he uses autotune..or shuld i call it niggertune cuz only black people use it cause they are talentless.

[N4Nav]

@YehLikeThat is kesha a nigger? are rascall flatts niggers? is miley cyrus a nigger? are fall out boys niggers? what about lady gaga?

[YehLikeThat]

@N4Nav they niggers to

[N4Nav]

@YehLikeThat that can't be, my friend...because you either black or not....miley cyrus is about as white as a white country girl and...oh my god...i can't believe i have to explain this to another human being...this is pointless...

[guyofred]

@YehLikeThat racist bastard, Kesha uses a whole shitload of auto-tune and she's white and ya, u just suck dick

[YehLikeThat]

@guyofred lol callign some1 a name doesnt mean im racist, if i say i hate niggers that makes me racist.

[BlinkFlyswatter182]

It's never okay to use autotune, it's fake.

[ReALiTeeChEkk]

If u people call that singing good then u dont have a clue what good singing is. We're not talking bout a guy at the local bar doing kareoke. If so, i would say he's ok. But 4 a guy who's famous as a singer he is terrible.

[strawberryfetish]

Hey he can sing... good for him I seriously doubted him.

[MariiiClaare]

Hes good !

[Ronlg1]

I can say that he can hold a tune and that on certain parts he actually showed a little range, but i can't really say that he can 'sang'. Not Luther Vandross, Fred Hammonds, Bilal 'sang' (and yes I named three different styles and genres on purpose)..But he can do what he does..It's like the great debate of "real hip hop" versus rap..a lot of people can hold a tune..Cassie can hold a tune...Keshia Cole can hold a tune..Aritha Franklin can 'sang'..Jill Scott can 'sang'..no hate though

[penicillinTablet]

Embrace The Differences.. Divide & Conquer!

Why don't ya'll learn sum'n??

[RonnieAGonzalez]

t-pain should just record without autotune 100% and lay the haters to waste

[SHIBBYiPANDA]

@RonnieAGonzalez I think he lays waste to the haters by continuing to use auto-tune :)

[Rachou509]

@RonnieAGonzalez he did severals songs whitout autotune in his albums. really good songs but haters are too lazy to listen...

real fans know the true ;)

[BloodyPolarBear]

@RonnieAGonzalez he has, but his most notibles songs are auto tuned and all of those haters out there are top 40 only listeners

[MrJHMik]

@RonnieAGonzalez that what makes him so special?!?!

[littleStellax]

@RonnieAGonzalez nooo noo noo T Pain hasn't haters.I'm sureee :D He is amazing how can you hate him?? ;o xd

[ScorpioKidd69]

#pauz have yhu heard his New Song Drowning Again?...its live on Cee Lo's show and he didnt use auto tune...sooo as far as him not being able to sing?...yhu must be deaf dumb :p

[dabears5468]

@ScorpioKidd69 yeh they will feel silly after hearing that. hes kills it.

[ScorpioKidd69]

@dabears5468 i kno right..

[R7shandil]

whats that intro song?

[StephonST]

@R7shandil Good Life - Kanye West ft. T-Pain

[DJKJSeph]

To your question the answer is NO

[SEXYQUPID]

LOOK @ T-PAIN SAID YALL GOT HIM FUCKED UP AHAHA

[CreativeEntertaiment]

Just let the haters tease him, hate because jealous and jealous because haters can't even be better than him. Even if this video shows many videos about how good T-Pain's voice without autotune, the haters will always hate him. I'm just upset why if T-Pain uses Autotune for most of his song, many haters tease him. But if another singer uses Autotune, so few haters tease him/her. Please watch this video once again and listen to his voices..thanks

[NovaTycho]

killin it 1:05....1:50....and at the end

[ONENataliaONLY]

He can sing.

People, other artist use auto-tune also (it is pitch correcting technique). Most artist in the industry do. But, when T-pain uses it he auto-tunes the original material multiple times, which gives it the obvious robot -sounding effect. He wants it that way, it's his unique style as annoying as it can be. Read up on what happens in a recording studio before you call him talentless.

[NovaTycho]

@ONENataliaONLY agreed my friend. Being a drummer singer rapper originator DJ music producer pianist and now actor! phew someone tell him to slow down lol

[dabears5468]

fuck the haters. he can sing fine. and he really started autotune to sound different back when he was new in 05 but everybody hopped on it and now its used all over.

[xCh34pShOtx]

Kinda funny how he whores auto tune so much that you can actually see his voice flying from high note to all of a sudden low ahahah fuckin faggot famous for nothing

[casanova4898]

his voice sounds like shit

[yodaddyxx]

autotune makes anyone's shitty singing sound good

[sassynsensible]

he cann sing without using auto tune, every artist has a unique way of singing just like keisha cole yelling and screaming in all her songs lol, so this is t pains way

[Sollembum78x]

Listen to Keep Going song and say he can't sing haters!

[DJKJSeph]

he can't sing without digital help. FAKE!

[redgirltp]

T-Pain uses auto tune because he likes it. Not to cover up his voice. He actually has a very beautiful voice. I have songs on my blog that prove it. Youtube won't let me type the URL, though.

[kidcrazy30]

all the people who are telling us to stop hating and he can sing plz.shut the fuck up even t pain kno his self cant sing, why the fuck do you think he uses autotune, and dont say cus he does it for effects he knos he hates hearing his voice sound like shit so he put autotune dumasses

[BoyzLightenKingz]

Autotune or not, he can fucking sing better than all you haters out there. So stfu while your hiding behind the internet while hes making some fucking money.

[TheRedMontana1]

did some of yall creat an acount just to hate on random youtube vidoes? t-pain can sing without auto tune, even if he couldnt, he'd still be pullin more girlz den you, so chillout with the bullshit and get a fuckin life if you got time for this ........

[daniel2639]

The music industry is garbage now. Nobody has any raw talent. As redgirltp said a few pages back " you have to somewhat know how to sing to use autotune" You should have to be able to sing to be in the industry. And for all these people calling other people "haters" get the fuck over yourselves.  The rap industry used to be good at one point in time, maybe 15 years ago, but it is garbage now. If you consider this music, you have no idea what music is.

[TheTheBestOfRap]

1:33 he cant sing he sounds horrible without auto tune for realls

[T100killer]

he can't sing... american idol have better singer and they don't even make it its just his lyrics get people and of course he's black so of course he'll survive in the hip hop industry

[silentgr0und]

ay 2gritty ... wanna speak in english? ebonics doesnt come across as comprehendable

[2gritty]

yall wast sayin nun when he came out now everybody got a problem wit auto tune get f'n real he used it so what man he can sing so jump off a cliff and land on jagged roccs. real ish

[TheWestCoastKilla]

He stopped singin with auto tune cause Jay-Z Roasted his ass on DOA DUH no one uses it anymore

[dabears5468]

@TheWestCoastKilla nah he uses just as much as he did. and jayz did roast him. the song doesnt even affect him

[parkinlotpro]

hes great ! NAPPY BOYYY !!!

[hmawardi]

whats the song at 1:50 ?

[adrainhayden]

Wow I had no idea he could really sing

[ashonpar3]

This should shut the New York haters up

[KaozMaddox]

OMG!

You are sooooo wrong!

T-PAIN CAN SING!

He has a song, sings it without autotune.

Search it up... it's call "Keep Going"

after you listen it you'll want to get your tongue inside you azz

[TheMeatloaflover]

honestly, autotune is ruining the industry...

[kiyaquriaee]

@TheMeatloaflover naw the swagger jackers who started abUSEing auto tune are ruining the industry. that was Tpains edge and everybody else stole it.

[izyourrefrigrunning]

DU T-Pain dosent use auto tune all the time + auto tune can be used live its crazy but you need to be abile to sing to use auto tine right

[anthill21]

@Tyago242 He Cant NOT Use It Now. Its Part Of His Character Now!

[lucyfosterbrown]

Woow he is a go0d singer!!,,Big up Teddy!!

[ScorpioKidd69]

he said he was gonna released a no auto tune album...but i guess change of plans huh??...man that album wud have shut everybody who say he cant sing up....

[ucandoitnicky]

@ScorpioKidd69 he cant sing

[ScorpioKidd69]

@ucandoitnicky ok? yea he can, but if you think he cant oh well thats you,

[Dabrenn13]

@Tyago242 he likes the sound effect of it

[dabears5468]

everybody whos saying he can sing why does he still use autotune. its because its something new. well it was new. he was trying to be different nd stuff

[redgirltp]

And on another note, T-Pain said he NEVER used auto tune live. He also said you have to somewhat know how to sing in order to use auto tune in order for it to even sound right and I believe him. Listen to Lil Wayne and Kanye use it. They sound TERRIBLE! But people continue to bash T-Pain for using it. Another "haters" situation. They know T-Pain sounds the BEST with auto tune and know that no one else would be using it if he never brought it back.

[ScorpioKidd69]

@redgirltp agreed, i been thinkin the same thing, but you cant tell "the haters" nothing these days
