After hearing several songs on hip-hop/pop radio that use that horrible device that scrambles voices and makes everybody sound like a robot, I wondered two things: what is that device called and why do people use it? When I read several reviews of the new Kanye West album, I discovered that it is called the auto-tune. I still can't figure out the other question though.
Kanye, who after three records was on his way to being a hip-hop legend, decided to base AN ENTIRE ALBUM around this damn thing. Steal a trend and overexpose it under your album is generic and bland - good call! What was he thinking?
That's all I'm going to say about this unlistenable album, which competes with My Morning Jacket and Lucinda Williams for the year's biggest disappointment.
Anyway, have a great Thanksgiving.
