I was looking at one of these auto- tune rappers & they labeled him a singer. I don't consider that shyt singing. What the Coli think? Do you consider these dudes singers?

Is playing an electric guitar guitar playing ? :jbhmm:
By that logic using any type of vocal effect isn’t singing. :jbhmm:

Yes. People who sing with autotune are singers.
I just mean these dudes with no actual voice & can't hit a note. They get on auto-tune to hide the fact that they can't sing shyt.

Alicia Keys, Usher, T Pain can sing without it, etc. I don't consider you a "singer" if you can't hold a note. Anybody can add effects.

@ABC123 If you can play it cool. If you collecting samples & can't actually play it, different. These dudes use effects cause they can't sing.

I been in a studio with the software they use. what it does isn’t on some super robotic change your voice 100% although you can do that (Cher)
What it does is corrects your pitch when your voice is SLIGHTY off key, you can’t just sing any kind of way and slap auto tune on it and boom now you sounding like a trained singer.

Also pretty much everybody is using auto tune, just not on that heavy T-pain wave

I've been in the studio with the software too & you can definitely slap auto tune on your shyt & pretend you can sing. I sang bass, I've seen these off key ass dudes do it. I agree with @PowerFist & @fckyoupayme .

One of my sons can't sing at all & is stepping up his auto tune to ride the wave. I love him but his ass can't sing.

@Jesse B. Semple That's why I asked. Saw a dude that can't play a single instrument or sing. They labeled him a "artist" & "singer" when he's just another auto tune rapper.
