EVERYTHING SOUNDS BETTER IN AUTO-TUNE

ASHLEY DAY
A&E EDITOR

Auto-Tune is everywhere nowadays. Britney Spears uses it, T-Pain uses it, Ke$ha definitely uses it and now you may use auto-tune to sound like any of the aforementioned artists.

“I Am T-Pain” is an app available through the iTunes app store and costs $2.99. The app includes nine free hit songs, and users can save money by singing along to songs from their iTunes library. Additional songs such as The Lonely Island’s “On A Boat” and T-Pain’s “Buy U A Drank” cost 99 cents through the app.

The app also includes a free style mode, where star singers and novices alike can rap or sing without any background music.

Segments on shows such as “The Ellen Show,” “Jimmy Kimmel: Live” and “Late Night with Jimmy Fallon” featured the app, and even The New York Times highlighted this app in its newspaper. It is also in the top 60 of the iTunes app store.

Users can also create auto-tuned videos, if their phones contain an iOS 4.0.

Overall, this app is a funny way to change your voice and spend time making your auto-tuned singing dreams come to life.
