Jay-Z is Auto-Tune Free

With the anticipated third part of the Blueprint trilogy close(r) to release, it's come to the fore that Jay-Z has insisted that none of its tracks use Auto-Tune. According to producer and Auto-Tune aficionado Kanye West, this is a deliberate statement against the device that has infiltrated Hip Hop and R&B to the point of exhaustion over the last few years. Even though it will be refreshing to not have an Auto-Tuned Hova spitting verses, it may not be enough to obliterate this scourge from music. Or does Jay-Z still have enough cache to single-handedly save us from its domination? [H/T: BPB]

hey, he got folks to 'change clothes' and stop wearing those ridiculously priced throwback jerseys, maybe there's hope for him banishing auto tune! lol..any effort is worth it at this point..

Maybe other artists will hop on the bandwagon and we can actually return to music as we once knew it.

Autotune should have died a hot fiery death a LONG time ago.
