With Lil Wayne releasing his autotune-heavy rock debut...eventually...there has been a lot of talk about how much it is probably going to suck - which, it probably will. When Kanye West released 808s & Heartbreak last year, the main thing that saved it was the fact that he knew he couldn't sing. He used his strength as a producer to turn the autotune from a would-be crutch into a musical instrument.
From what I've heard, no amount of autotune is going to save this album. Maybe it's because of poor implementation, or maybe it's the signature weeziness of his voice, but it just doesn't sound right when he does it and it's hit-or-miss at best.
With that being said, people are going to buy it anyway. Some people are going to like it, and I may download a few tracks myself. Hell, this guy could rap the phone book and people would buy it.
