Because his voice is average at best and he wouldn't be talked about if he didn't put that crap over his voice? Of course, everyone else' voice is average nowadays too, so, yeah, why not just sing?
The only person who I've ever heard use this who I thought sounded good doing it was Cher and that's because Cher has a good voice and used in to a minimul extent.
now..see..Cher is the only one i didn't like with the autotune, wbss21.
for the one who said they didn't mean to sound arrogant..the reality is simple..
people have a different ear for different things.
i like how tpain sounds with the device...it made him stand out.
again...the timeless saying goes...one man's treasure is another man's trash. i guess that's the answer for you, dangerous 88
several of you on this thread, are now saying that tpain can sing. there are still people out there who think he cannot sing.
so..it's not about arrogance...it's just about people hear different things personally. tpapin is making a lot of money with autotune..so..a lot of people like him with it...lol.
i like how Justin sounds with it. and RKelly too.
it's just another evolution in music..the autotune. to me, it's a cool thing. it adds to r and b
it can change a pop song into an r and b song.
all fans are equal..no fan is better than the other because of what they like or don't like, again, in answer to your question about arrogance..dangerous 88
i mean, i've heard that people booed Prince when he first started, and booed George Benson, for singing along with his guitar, when he first started it.
