Is Ne-Yo Talking About T-Pain?

Singer/songwriter Ne-Yo set the record straight in an interview with Amaru Don TV about vocalists using the auto-tunes effect.

Ne-Yo explains that auto-tunes was originally meant to assist singers during studio sessions that may miss notes due to overexertion or fatigue while recording.

“Auto-tune was meant to be a safety net,” he states. “It was not meant to be wings, you were not supposed to strap it on your back and jump off the building.”

Ne-Yo is referring to the artists that have taken the vocal effect and made it their signature sound as opposed to genuine singers that use it to catch notes that fall out of place.

He compares them to robots, calls the technique wack and claims that it takes the character out of the artists’ voices making them unrecognizable.

“You hear it on the radio and you go, ‘who is that?’…because everybody sounds the same.”

Neyo didn't call any 1 singer out in the interview, but when you think of auto-tune who is the first person you think about? Don't worry I'll wait
