Is being excited of heavily tweaked/autotuned vocals trendy nowadays?

For me, it's a stylistic choice that is overused. I don't mind it being used here and there, but not everywhere. I usually prefer raw vocals.

Give names of who you are referring to

if the melody and the song sounds good, I don't usually care

It doesn’t bother me too much if it’s done well. Like obsession and lotto.

Oh if we're talking about autotune this song has too much of it

Han is my bias and I like the song but I feel it would be better without it

The vocals could be autotune heavy in the whole album and i wouldn’t care as long as it fits the song. But if you try to sing a ballad with autotune, then i have a HUGE problem

I always prefer the ones that eat cds, the only recent song i enjoyed that had a lot of autotune was can't you see me by txt. It just fit the vibe of the song.

but on a side note why doesn't anyone talk about people who have like REALLY nice voices

like ailee, jamie, or akdong musician???

They're ok and Ailee is great but if you wanna talk about the best of the best, you wont find it in Kpop or American pop.

You'll find it right here

I dont even think kpop is that bad, you should hear music in the west, it's basically just robots sining/ rapping now

I actually am a HUGE fan of pure vocals (go listen to the group Voctave, you won't be sorry no matter which song you pick, I guarantee it. Seriously you'll be amazed.) But autotune can be a legit effect instead of a crutch. If you're doing a song with more electronics in it, autotune can make the vocals sound more natural to the environment.

So yes, some groups overuse it. Some don't need it, but use it anyway as an effect. And that's okay.

Actually, I'm gonna go ahead and insert a Voctave vid here, for the heck of it. (Wait for the soprano, you'll know what I mean.)

It depends how/how much the autotune is used.

Apparently.

idk. if the song sounds good i'll listen to it.
