Blame It On The Autotune (Death of Autotune Remix)

(aka Death of Autotune 2: Robot's Revenge)

A remix of Jay-Z's new single "Death of Autotune" (hear the original here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cWAa8pDLBCI )

Now that Jay-Z has shaken up the hip-hop world with Death of Autotune, I started wondering: what will happen when the music industry programs its evil robots to fight back? This is my vision of that apocalyptic future.

NOTE: this video is by no means meant as an endorsement of autotune usage (or of Jamie Foxx's creepy borderline date rape lyrics).

Jay, you need to comment on that Jewish kids on Obama video.

[illdoc1]

ohh, thanks for reminding me of that..in case i don't have time to get to it, i'll just say for now that I basically agree with Ta-Nehisi Coates' take on it, on his blog (can't post url here cuz youtube is wack like that)

[D0NPIERRE]

how do you xtract just the vocals from any track?

[NiceRaps]

He didnt, theres an instrumental floating around.

[illdoc1]

no there was no instrumental around when I made this, I chopped it up myself using the last ten seconds of the original

[illdoc1]

there are programs that attempt to do that through phase reversal and such but they rarely if ever would come out this clean.. they were just nice enough to let the beat rock at the end, long enough to be pieced together

[Hotobu]

Who was it that said, "Any rapper that uses Auto-tune should pay royalties to T-Pain"? I swear I wanted to smack him with a Zapp & Roger record.

The only track in recent history that I can think of that made sense with Auto-Tune is Sensual Seduction by Snoop.

LOL!!! They plug needs to be unplugged, at least for a while!!!

[JEDI7ACEN]

LOL! There's more autotune in a regular song now than there is in "Transformers The Musical"

[FeedingAddiction]

@tearsofgore get a life...

[jojodancer007]

Don't forget Teddy Riley and Guy... Man , I feel like I just dropped my birth certificate! lol

[dropsthemajestic]

that was "Diddy's" Faggot @ZZ who said that! he paid Tpain in the studio like a dumb @ZZ

[nefets99]

but rap is gay either way faggot

[Neil2293]

the thing thats bad about auto tune is there are people that dont use it that sound better but there isnt enough room for them to get the respect they deserve because of teh popular people are hogging the lime light

[tearsofgore2]

" im Lil Wayne,

im so lame,

cause i use autotune,

just for the fame.

and i cant sing,

because i suk at rhyming,

and im insane,

like t-pain,

cause we doin it to rain money! "

these new rappers suk!

[UnusuallyLargeCrab]

I'm sick of hearing Autotune sounds. Clever remix though.
