JAY-Z RESPONDS TO T-PAIN’S DISS…

This is more like a brush off his shoulder than a response…

T-PAIN DISSES JAY-Z: “HE’S 59 YEARS OLD, HE DON’T HAVE THE RIGHT TO SAY DOA!”

T-PAIN DISSES JAY-Z: “HE’S 59 YEARS OLD, HE DON’T HAVE THE RIGHT TO SAY DOA!”

It was only a matter of time until T-Pain began to publicly display his saltiness to Jay-Z’s “DOA” sentiments. Teddy P was out performing at REHAB Labor Day Weekend ‘09 where he was caught on live on stage “F**k Jay-Z” & “Jay-Z sucks!” You can clearly hear him say “I think if anything is dead, it should be him.” He goes into a bit of song then continues the rant for a minute then back to his coonin’…WOW! Highly doubt Hov will waste his time on Teddy’s clown ass, he’s got bigger & greater things to worry about…Blueprint 3 drops today! Oh Yeah!

THINGS THEY SAY: JAMIE FOXX ON THE IMPORTANCE OF AUTO-TUNE

THINGS THEY SAY: JAMIE FOXX ON THE IMPORTANCE OF AUTO-TUNE

When it comes to Auto-Tune singer/actor Jamie Foxx has no complaints. His chart topping hit “Blame It” is heavily infused with the computer program as well as T-Pain’s voice. While other people knock Auto-Tune, Jamie reveals that he was actually advised to use the program on his album if he didn’t want it to flop and gives his take on why “Blame It” is such a hit. He says,

“My music guy said, ‘If you don’t do it, your R&B album will be in the grocery store in that little bin with the nail clippers and the flip-flops’.”

The reason Jamie thinks “Blame It” became so popular:

He adds,

It’s a combination of things. Where we are in music today with the Auto-Tune, I think we captured the Auto-Tune the best in a long while — since T-Pain. And then having T-Pain on the song. Then the song says something that people have said throughout the years, ‘Man, I think I had one too many’. And then Ron Howard being in the video made it a pop song. The next thing you know it caught fire.

T-Pain started this mess, but Lil’ Duval remixed it.

DID T-PAIN ETHER HIMSELF AT JAY-Z’S “D.O.A.” PERFORMANCE?!

DID T-PAIN ETHER HIMSELF AT JAY-Z’S “D.O.A.” PERFORMANCE?!

MC Hammer seems to think so…no matter what way you “twist it”.
Check out this exclusive interview with MC Hammer and AHH’s Chuck ‘Jigsaw’ Creekmur where he drops some gems about Jay-Z’s “Death Of Auto-Tune” joint. He claims Jay-Z’s “D.O.A.” is a real strategical chess move in the game of Hip Hop…

“He [Jay-Z] announced the “Death of Auto-Tune” two nights before the concert, where everybody was coming in town to their song with Auto-Tune on it….You getting ready to go on in front of 60k people to do your song and he [Jay-Z] already telling them ‘that song ain’t no more’. That’s a cold play. That’s playing hardball right there man!…It’s a brilliant strategy and I can’t knock his hustle.”

Press play again to get what he saying…and if you don’t get it then you stuck on stupid!

Something tells me T-Pain is probably kicking himself for joining Jay-Z on his “D.O.A.” set….major FAIL!
Props to Harry

In the words of Dave Chappelle as Rick James, “They should’ve never gave ya niccas money!”
