I enjoyed absolutely none of the Graduation singles (maybe Champion's alright?) and I can only give a B+ to Love Lockdown, so I'm happy to take Buy You A Drank over Kanye. Flashing Lights is the laziest house record I've ever heard and his raps on that are worse than the dude's on La Bouche's "Be My Lover." Seriously.

Paper Planes is "pop." That's good. Everything Kanye does is pop, that's good. Who can even define what pop is and isn’t anymore?

Paper Planes is “pop.” That’s good. Everything Kanye does is pop, that’s good.

There haven't been a ton of good ones. I mean, what pop singles have you liked the past two years? There haven’t been a ton of good ones.

Re: 2$ Mics. Yeah when it works its gold but I still remember the horrors of the rap-rock era and those kids ruined that shit for me. Now that I think about it, one guy who ALWAYS has dope vocals is Black Thought on Roots records. 75 Bars this year had the perfect grimy tone. Lil Danzig: good looks on the talk-box clarification.

Then again, I compared Madlib to Miles Davis today so who am I to talk? At least you realize T-Pain sucks now. That is a lot far.

I would go so far as to say it's the best pop single of the past two years. Nothing this year has really compared. Least of all T-Pain's own crappy shit. “Since when is “Buy You A Drank” good?”

The vocoder 'sound' is like the chorus of "Planet Rock", it actually replaces elements of the vocal sound with synthesized tones. The Zapp talk-box sound is literally just a tube that re-amplifies sound through the musician's mouth. Sorry to get all nerdy on ya, I just see this misconception over and over and the whole talk-box/vocoder/auto-tune thing has become a serious pet peeve over the last couple of months.

Enter 36 Chambers is kinda like that... maybe $5... but out of all these that is the coolest for sure. the biggest problem with autotune is that it makes you sound like cher. i dont know why any rapper would want that. as someone said already; more Whatcha Want-esque tunes = good news to me.
