Rap-Up.com || New Music: Jay-Z

Jay-Z finally gives us what we’ve been waiting for: the street single from his eleventh studio album The Blueprint 3, due Sept. 11 on Warner Music Group.

“D.O.A. (Death of Auto-Tune)” was produced by No I.D. and Kanye West. This is only a teaser. A radio single called “Off That” featuring Drake will drop in July.

Hov officially killed Auto-Tune. Our respects to T-Pain.

Updated with CD quality

It ain’t trash but it ain’t as hot as everyone’s claiming either. We’ll see if everyone’s as stoked about this track a month from now or if it’s gonna be the next “Blue Magic” or “Jockin’ Jay-Z.” Good lookin’ to Rap-Up on the CDQ though!

Auto-tune officially killed by Jay-Z? yeah right and the Wii will never make any money. The only thing you can say officially about Auto-Tune is that it hasn’t been anything less than annoying since the Zapp and Roger.

Kanye has NOTHING to do with the production of this song. It’s No I.D. alone and he sampled a yugoslaw/french dude from the 70′s. Won’t reveal the sample tho. Will be out there anyway on the sample forums in couple days I guess, I can’t be the only one to know it…

I like this song.

I will say I still like hearing auto-tune on SOME songs though. It just depends on what you do with it. Artist shouldn’t depend on it or use it just because they heard somebody else do it.

And I think Kanye should still use it

Its jus happens to be the thing to do in some circles to hate on auto tunes..Auto tune is in now and the bottom line is the general public still accepts it. So as long as their is a demand, it aint goin nowhere. Dont believe it, go check the sound scan, LOL!..Come on, on some songs, the shit is hot, Jay cant front on that I bet you’ll catch him boppin his head to the shit. This song is luke warm, but his flow is tight as always. Im a biiiig Jay Z fan too, but Im expectin more out of him.

The song isn’t bad. The lyrics are impressive but besides that, the song isn’t anything special.

When you work with vocalist, you have to almost always use auto tune. Your favorite singers use the shit, its just that rappers turn the effect all the way up. So technically, it will never go anywhere. Studio albums wouldnt be studio albums without autotune.
