The song dropped in 1985 ,not 1925

Computers existed way before the internet

Roger used a talk box. Teddy Riley used a vocoder. T pain and the rappers/singers today use auto tune. Not the same thing. Doesn’t sound the same either to those that have listened to the talk box and vocoder for decades. It’s like a difference in sp 1200 drums and MPC 3000 drums. Plus auto tune was around before t pain. It was a correction tool. The first mainstream song I heard overuse it was by Cher and I didn’t know what it was


I used a vocoder on the intro and outro of this song, most people thought it was just part of the best and that I wrote the hook to that melody, but I actually created a synth melody based on my hook.

Omg

The allied forces did use computers during ww2. They also had cell phones like we had in the late 80s early 90s

The early internet was used during the Vietnam war

Military technology is 20 to 50 yrs ahead of consumerism

Yea computers were around, but most people weren't really aware of their purpose outside of data.

The idea of socializing via a computer with another person was not common in the 80's and we can just admit that Zapp and Roger were ahead of their time instead of the coli always tryna act like they know some shyt :russ:

Ya momma and ya daddy did not go home and hit each other up on the computer after dancing to this at the club in '85.:laff:
