Please Stop With the Auto Artist
January 12, 2009 by admin
Ok lets be real how much more of this crutch will the hip-hop industry really use. For instance Carrie Underwood is a multiplatinum selling artist and she doesn’t have Auto-Tunes pushing her record sales, plus she sounds awesome live. That’s what makes a real artist, having no gimmicks or crutches. When Aretha Franklin sang she did it with a mic and some great vocals. If you say you’re a genius and you use all kind of gadgets to make your record, then you’re the total opposite when you’re performing at a venue that doesn’t have Auto-Tunes or Melodyne to aid your act. Look if you’re not a singer and I mean a real singer please hang up the gloves and stick to rapping, don’t get hurt that only singers can turn rappers.
Auto-Tunes is great for the Deacon at the church who can’t sing and you have to cover your ears when he’s giving his solo song testimony. If you can’t perform live or make a record without crutches then get out of the business before you’re the next parody on SNL or the biggest YouTube video hit.
