🔊 What T-Pain learned after avoiding time with his own family pursuing the ambition to be #1.

Bring up the prevalence of auto-tune pitch correction in modern music at a party with your friends and arguments are bound to break out. Some will decry its inescapable prominence and lament it as a way for talentless hacks to dominate the airwaves. Others will unapologetically declare their allegiance to this relatively recent addition to the melodic lexicon. And while he didn’t invent the effect, rapper and singer T-Pain is credited (or blamed, depending on your perspective) for popularizing its hold on today’s musical landscape.

In this episode, we talk to T-Pain about success, creativity, making a ton of money (and then losing it all), and almost losing his life as a result before emerging from the other side. Even if you think auto-tune ruined music, this is one you’re going to want to hear. Listen, learn, and enjoy!
