Music Class: T-Pain Performs Without Auto-Tune

Umma be real with y'all... I may never take Epiphany out my rotation. It's a feel good album. :mike:
 
Without auto tune you can now really hear what he is saying, and one thing I never realized is that sure sure sings about alcohol a lot, doesn't he... Almost makes him seem like he has a problem.:lol:
 
no one ever believed me, i been tellin folks dude can actually sing.

heard him onstage a long time ago. he wasn't doing all that auto tune in the nappy headz days

he sings without it on his albums but somehow it's largely gone unnoticed
 
I've always heard that you had to have some kind of talent to pull off using vocal processors/vocoders/talk boxes i.e Roger Troutman. Dope drop.

Ironic since he comes from a Muslim background!

T-Pain has always had genuine talent, though. If you notice, his auto-tuned songs, like R. Kelly's, were better than other people using it because they actually know how to write and arrange songs. But he was suspect for a while after this performance:

That nigga can't pull it off...:lol: Him and Future are examples of using it wrong.
actually, future is way better than this nigga, although that's not saying much. but future is a helluva writer too.

yeah man pain's arrangements have always been ill. and you can tell when he did some shit top to bottom because it comes out the same in his instrumentation and in his vocal arrangements. very lush and even complex at times.

even at his level of success, i feel that he's real underrated.
 
man I had NO CLUE that dude has that kind of talent..... wow

I’m just out here working hard every single day, just trying to be the best poster I can be....
 
I dig his music for some get dumb have fun shit. He is talented with or without the auto tune, and I appreciate that he seems to actually enjoy his music. the lyrics are so ridiculous though, smoothed out alcoholic crunk music vs motown or 70's funk damn music has regressed. this can't even hold up to jodeci
