Isn't this photo great? And perfect segue I thunkest...
So after arriving home from seeing Up! (truly amazing, totally back it go see...in 3D!), I was bombarded by an incessant chirp/beep/alert/dangerwillrobinsondanger! upon replug-in re:"JAY-Z : THE DEATH OF AUTO TUNE..DOA".....
:: rolls head back, cracks neck and prepares to state obvious ::
Auto-tune been dead ninjas! It was never brought back to life NOR resuscitated you were simply bamboozled :: sigh :: swallow the pride pill its ok. While it was ok to enjoy a few select diddy's (yeaah you took that took that) to parlay in the club or get ready to, if you actually drank the koolaid and called it talent and/or musicianship...you are like Kramer's career, gone.
Every generation needs their "Candy" and "Computer Love", but much like with instant gratification, we OD'd. Now is time to head into Betty Ford lil sinners and let some folks that have been preparing and training take the wheel instead of letting T-Pain auto-pilot.
But apparently "Jay you gon kill a lot of folks careers!"....to this "Jay" simply chuckles and says, "no it's just time to move forward..." And it is. Music like life has shifts (just like the one I'm really waiting to move on right now cuz errybody and they mama (litterally) is feeling it). This one lasted more than it's welcome mat but had many hometown glories. Music, as of late. has turned to knocking and I don't mean in that good ol 808 way. People want to spend time making songs about how bad music is instead of MAKINGBETTERMUSIC. And those "careers" Funk Flex spoke of can do that as well so Jay didn't "kill" anything.
So as with everyday, SEEK BETTER, DEMAND IT...in everything....ESPECIALLY the soundtrack of your life. Look how powerful it is...I wonder exactly how many people are listening/talking/texting/reading/just heard about the song right now? Music is universal when language isn't in a world that is starving....dying....beating to talk to eachother.
So with that, for those that missed it, Jay-Z-DOA [fyi-it's not the final version..there will be one in July with Drake and ps, sorry it's the raid rip but uh it dropped like 2 hrs ago gimme a break..]
