in hip hop as of now, yes. but with the explosion of auto-tune, and the general acceptance the public has shown to it, producers will get better to it. for a long time now, people have been using pitch correction in other genres, but now its advancing to a point where we don't even need good source material.

I don't think it'll become that widely accepted. Rock bands using autotune? It just doesn't sounds like it's gonna happen to me. It may be accepted in Hip Hop, but I think it's just a fad. Even Kanye's about to let it go, and him and Lil Wayne are the main ones I can think of that use it.

I can't really get into his music, but then again I'm not really a big rap fan in general.

auto-tune has been used in music for years before T-Pain got a hold of it. They used it with a lot more "class" if that's the word for it. It wasn't plastered across the entire song to where it sounds like a six-year old boy on crack, but it was still there. But it was still there to get a voice up a little to really hit that note home, or to make that note hold longer.

Yeah yeah, Graduation sucks, 808's & Heartbreak sucks MAJORLY, but how can a hip hop fan hate that? Colorful productions, and just... Fun, charismatic rapping that you want to cheer for.

I don't believe My Face Can't Be Felt had any autotune, and that's the last one I remember him putting out. But coolzville. When did you start staying on top of Lil Wayne's output anyway?

Oh yeah, T Pain! How'd i forget that guy.???

Annnyway. Yeah, I understand that they used it before, but for (somewhat) more legitimate reasons. I take from it that you think autotune will become a prevalent force in music; I doubt people would really like hearing nasty autotune voice coming out on every song. Good singing voices are still appreciated, ya dig?

I understand the point your making and good singing voices will be appreciated. While the talent will still be out there, eventually auto-tune and audio-manipulation software like it will become advanced to the point where we can "create" a good singing voice out nothing, or out of a random voice that says some lyrics. I think music will follow a path much like we see with photo-enhancement software creating unrealistic standards for magazine ads out of good looking but average women. While "auto-tune" as it exists now will likely burn out and die(According to Jay-Z) I think that programs like it will continue to be a force in music. And yes, for the most part before the current outbreak of auto-tune and vocoder, it was used much more modestly to tweak the pitch slightly to make it sound more appealing.
