We couldn’t very well expect the disciples of Autotune to remain silent in the face of a direct challenge. Even though Jay-Z granted a presidential pardon to T-Pain, Kanye West and Lil Wayne on the usage of Autotune, that left quite a few artists feeling like they’d been thrown under the bus.

The first artist to say anything in public is DJ Webstar of “Chicken Noodle Soup” and “Dancing On Me” fame (which is heavy on the Autotune usage). Here is a selection of things he’s posted on Twitter about the alleged “Death Of Autotune.

Meanwhile, Radio Host Missinfo caught up with Ron Browz backstage at Summer Jam and asked him how he felt about the song:
“If the streets love these autotune records you can’t stop that…” -Ron Browz

    bulls**t aint about nothing. jigga sets standards. he let the auto tune thing ride out its wave but you got wayyyy too many dick riding biters in the game now. so its time to kill off the monster. t pain even bit it with his own twist. teddy riley brought it to hip hop in the 90′s. roger troutman brought it to music in the 80′s…… now in 09, jigga killed it. even r kelly used that s**t a few times- its a digital instrument used to manipulate sound….NOT A F**KIN SWAGG! anybody who NEEDS auto tune to be hot, is not hot. point blank and period. Pain doesnt NEED it, he uses it, Kanye has only used it since he started f**kin wit tpain and wayne…..but webstar and ron browz use the s**t on EVERY track. without it they are nobody’s…. do the math.
    D O A!

    They said I was designed to violently to attain full acknowledgement, but don’t be fooled. They can’t change my will. But they can change ‘them’ who are willing.

    Can’t control anything greater or more than.

    Ok….I’m a Texan, and admittedly, I listen a lot of Southern hip-hop….this Autotune bulls**t’s been grating on my nerves for a minute….but I was fine w/ T-Pain using it to get make a lane for himself. The fact that EVERYONE uses that s**t now, it’s overkill, it’s garbage through & through, and I’m glad someone with some status finally deaded the whole issue…not joined in on it to stay relevant. Ron Browz has a point….he’s making records that kids love & s**t…but Webstar (WTF???) is basically saying there’d be no hot s**t for the radio without this Autotune foolishness. I disagree….I fully believe that hip-hop/rap would go back to being about lyrics & beats…go figure.

    I agree T-Pain is da ONLY person dat uses the autotune and make it sound good, Kanye can at times and wayne should leave it alone but ron browz n da otha nigga need 2 find da own music swag

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/Mcbounds_GQ/ Mcbounds_GQ

    In all honesty autotune is a way to cover up the fact that you cant emcee there’s no way around that, half of the people that use it are talentless its boring, enough is enough lets get back to making good music, you can make fun music/club bangers without autotone, everyone keeps saying fun music this fun music that, what about substance, substance is not boring or depressing it great music that requires skill and thinking

    autotunes only sounds good with singers,not rappers who can’t sing.if yo ass can’t sing ,what’s tha point of using it?i would give like t-pain a pass on it ,but tha rest of them ,hell naw!stick to what you know,ya dig.

    maybe the reason why jay-z made DOA is because yall chicken noodle soup cats are throwin darts at him puttin a fake beyonce in the video dancin with jim jones doin the single ladies dance. as far as ron browz hes tryin to piggy back what he produced 8 years ago the most all-time diss record was directed towards jay-z. besides, dj webstar and ron browz music are wack as hell
