What do you all think about artists using auto-tune? I got annoyed with T-Pain using it on all his songs. Kanye West and Lil Wayne have perfected it though. I really like it when they use it. They have already proven themselves with their natural voices. Now they are twisting it up and making it sound real nice.

Check out Kanye and Young Jeezy's new song "I Put On": http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewProfile&friendID=297846700

Kanye does some nice stuff with his voice there. He also has a remix to Lollipop which sounds good using auto-tune.

All these rappers are homoing up. Damn it.

i don't like this hip hop kinda music that it sounds just bump bump bump, or even with no sense at all in the lyrics, like this song i heard the other day, it's called cranck that, and it's shit to hear, he repeats the same shit all over the song. i hate the actual "hip hop" or even the rap.
I like the most:
Gangstarr
Dj Premier (all songs he produces)
Jay-Z
Nas
Jedi Mind
DMX
in that order

MOTIVATION BEST SONG

[emogirl]

Don't consider rap to be music. More like reading. Full Abscense of vocal skills, disability to play instruments.

Though, there's a couple of exceptions.

[TheGodEmperor]

so basically you're saying that rap is ritualized talking  :bs:

I dont like rap, but I recognise that it's music

[emogirl]

It depends on what you consider music. For me, it is not. Most people who like rap say that they like lyrics the most, but they should be poets then, not "musicians".
