It’s almost here, Stags. 13 (spooky), Fairfield is hosting the annual Red Sea Madness, and this year will feature rapper T-Pain. Check out these fun facts about this fall’s performer: 1. His real name is Faheem Rashad Najm. His stage name, T-Pain, is actually short for “Tallahassee Pain”, a nod to his hometown. Auto-Tune is a must have for me when recording myself or working with other artists. I love how simple, versatile, and powerful Auto-Tune is. I use Auto-Tune Pro to pitch correct vocals and instruments in vivid detail, to get that perfect take, but I also use it to experiment creatively to get a cool sound or new ideas.

Sep 11, 2018 In the liner notes for his new album Love, Loss, and Auto-Tune, 76-year-old Virginia soul eccentric Swamp Dogg described the shock of listening to rap radio on a long drive with producer Larry “MoogStar” Clemon, former keyboard player in vocoder enthusiast Roger Troutman’s Zapp: “After a couple hours, I said, ‘Moogie, did this artist. Dec 21, 2015 While auto-tune isn't the worst thing to happen to music, I can't really think of that many good songs that use it as auto-tune has just became a joke over the years. Even when artists like Kanye West tried using it as an experiment it just didn't work for me and there's even a song in an Alice Cooper that uses auto-tune.
