Who's The Auto-Tune King?

Auto Tune was officially brought up through Teddy Riley from Blackstreet. Ah man you kids are to young to even know who that was but anyways who is today's king of Auto-Tune. Is it T-Pain? Lil Wayne? Kanye West? or Snoop Dogg? It's maybe hard for two I understand. This question tweaked my mind and had me thinking for days about who should actually deserves to win the Auto-Tune King.

Anyways let's speak about these artist and what has Auto-Tune has done for them individually
T-Pain:

Every song T-Pain has ever been in since his 1st song he has had an Auto-Tune effect in his voice. Since "I'm Sprung" that song was his TV debut he's been using Auto-Tune. So he officially let everyone know that this was his official swag. He let everyone know that he also couldn't sing. This voice effect has brought him alot of fame through his summer cipher song "Buy You A Drank" . This song was every where and T-Pain's voice was significant with this beat. It was at proms, block parties, and the best, house parties. After this song and further Pain was on every single track. It was always ______ ft. T-Pain in every song. Like it was insane. He was literally in almost every song.

But the Auto-Tune is beginning to die out for Pain because his latest album "Thr33 Ringz" was absolutely crap. I mean downright do-do!!!!! There was like a couple of ok songs. For example "Cant Believe It" , "Karaoke" , and "Chopped N' Skrewed". This was the worst year for Pain lyrically. Lil Wayne:

Weezy just somehow jumped on the bandwagon. But who cares? Anyways his Auto-Tune debut was with Static Major(the rapper). In the song that most people still can't figure out if he's speaking English or not. Which is obviously "Lolli-Pop". This was Weezy's auto-tune debut. But I didn't even know that he was using the effect because I just thought that it was just his regular voice. After this song he used Auto-Tune in a number of songs in the future. But he didn't O.D like T-Pain. He also used on one his best songs "Prom Queen". Weezy did OK with the Auto-Tune.Snoop Dogg:


Snoop Dogg is so Gangsta this guy can do whatever he wants and can never be criticized for it because he's gangsta. He only used the Auto-Tune for one of his songs which was mad hot "Sensual Seduction". This song is so Snoop and hot. This song fits his character.


Kanye West:

The guy who would win the "Most Questionable Attire Of The Year" award only if they had one. This guy Kanye is famous and has the ability to just create his own swag and every one will follow him. It' guaranteed. However, Kanye has also found the Auto-Tune amusing to him. If you ask me it is just going to be a phase. OK. Look at it like this. His mom died and he broke up with his girl so 808's and Heartbreak was like an album tribute towards his ex girl and his mom. So he maybe wanted to do something sophisticated and caring by singing and maybe said .... I can't sing....But theirs the auto tune I could use..... So he maybe just used the auto tune for his album. Cut Kanye some slack people he's a phenommenal artist. Anyways his Auto-Tune debut was "Love Lockdown" a song about his ex girl. He also used it in "Put On Remix" , "Welcome To HeartBreak" I'm not so sure about "Paranoid" , "Robo-Cop" , once again I'm not sure about "Street Lights". But I doubt it. There's more too. Which you can look up on your own time.

Kanye Is The Auto Tune King!!!!
