It has been passed through the industry more than Superhead in the last few months, and now after reviving it, T-Pain is finally going to make some money off of it. Apparently, Diddy, the self proclaimed "King Of The Remix", is going to have a complete Auto-Tune album, and will be paying T- Pain royalties off of it.
During an interview Diddy explained what exactly he was doing saying,“I gave T-Pain one point on my [upcoming] album for using the Auto-Tune.”
“Sign the papers,” Pain, who has been one of the most sought after collab artist in the game, said as he confirmed this deal. When asked, he seemed very excited about it, stating, “Diddy actually gave me royalties on this album just for using Auto-Tune. He signed the contract and everything. If I can do that with Diddy, somebody else better be signing something. It’s Diddy. He didn’t have to involve me at all. … I’m writing and producing on his album, and he gave me extra royalties on top of that for using something I just brought back.”
With this news it is obvious that the Auto-Tune craze in Hip Hop is far from over...

for fuck sakee, not that im a diddy fan anyway..jus want it to die down for atleast a year..
Even Though I'm Nowhere Near A Fan Of That Auto Tune .T-Pain Definaetly Comes Through Wit That Shyt When He Uses It So I Don't See Why Not He Shouldn't Get A Lil Light Shed On Wut His Trademark Is Even Though We All Know He Is Not Tha Originator Of It..It's Definately A Good Look On Puffs Part And Props To'em On Lettin Sumbody Else Eat...On Anotha Note This Nigga Puff Has Started Sum Shyt Cuz Now Things Might Change When It Comes To Tha Use Of That Sound..Scream At Me,1..
Diddy better give Shyne a million at least when he get out of jail.
this is great news! coz now puff using it aint noone ever gonna use it after that
I Used To Think He Was A Smart Business....How Wrong Was I
i might be the only one that thinks this but this makes no sense to me? it's not like t-pain invented that shit or anything? he doesn't have a copyright on the vocoder. i would get it if diddy like shouted him out, thanked him, or something like that because pain really did popularize him. but paying him for making something popular? you wouldn't expect people who screw their music to pay dj screw every time they do it. just doesn't make sense to me...
popularizing it* my bad
Well Itz Diddy.. If Ya Got Money.. Spend It.. & Thatz Wat He Doin.. Tha Game Iz Changin.. Niggaz Need 2 Stop Complainin & Jus Deal With It..
Jus Sayin..
LOL HE SAID IT BEEN PASSED AROUND MORE THAN SUPERHEAD HAHAHA
but damn, why diddy, and why pay tpain? he didnt create it nor did he copyright it so what the fuck is he paying tpain for?
i cant believe hes doing that...BIG probably turning in his grave (R.I.P.)
FUCK AUTO TUNE
you really like diddy??? Datz crazy
more of this autotone bullshit. that bullshit should be outlawed.
Fo-T Kalibur! lmao your SO right.
aww great...more AutoTune... dammit
Just great, more auto-tune bullshit coming right up. THIS is another reason why radio sucks ass now.
Well diddy sucks anyways, King of the remix my ass.
P.S: DA FAKEST, DEC 16 - DON'T BUY IT, DON'T DOWNLOAD IT!!!
That's some real shit on diddy's behalf chalie!!
Nooooooooo!!!!!!!!! Man I've read my past 5 comments and all of them have been critical. Make that 6.
Diddy why dont you pay Rakim or KRS for not dissin your non rappin ass on wax? You shouldve been deaded a long time ago.
Why don't u pay Roger Troutman(spelling)?
Fuck T-Pain and I'm boycotting all music with that auto-tune bullshit. Fuck Khaled, fuck wayne, fuck ace hood, fuck all the florida rappers except Trick and the strip club anthem pioneer Uncle Luke. Them niggas I just mentioned and the cats in their camp have single handily strangled the art out of hip-hop.
Pac and Big are lookin down like "these niggas is gettin money"???. Whole industry is fuk boyz, lame ass, never sold a candy bar, wanna be dope boyz.
T-Pain is the "WB" frog in person. Mother fuckin shuckin in jivin wit a top hat. Straight buffoonery.
Get ready in 5 years to be forced to likin techno cuz hip-hop won't be alive.
shuckin in jivin lol. it is pretty comical how hip hop is turning out, but since it has become such a commercial success and millions upon millions are being spread around the hip-hop industry, bufoonery is bound to happen. :(
props for the "Diddy why dont you pay Rakim or KRS for not dissin your non rappin ass on wax? You shouldve been deaded a long time ago", good ish
Yo Roger Troutman is dead (RIP) he cant pay him rolayties specifically. Besides I bet T-Pain is teaching Diddy specifically how to use Autotunes as well so thats why he is going to pay him that.
AS much as i dont like Khali he has been responsible for some of the biggest collabs this year and last year. And T-Pain is doing his thing. He has have 11 number 1 hits the only people to beat him were the beatles.
And their are plenty of new aritist comming out that are gonna keep hip hop alive. All the new cats on XXL. and Well known artist. Luda Jeezy T.I. Jay Nas Talib Common Drake Eminem etc. Shit Hip hop wont never die.
even if Diddy was a rapper what was he gonna rap about, atleast his being true to himself, he never lived that street life he came from a well educated family... what was he gonna rap about? Harvard? Oxford? Evolution? Big Bang? i mean c'mon, thats like saying diss Jay-Z for jumping with coldplay and limp bizkit and for beefing oasis... as far as im concerned if you dont like it, pay no attention to it, but other than that let people make money... that includes soulja boy
TPain sings, he dont rap and he's actually origional and brought something fresh to the game.
Not that no one has ever used auto tune, but when he came back out with it noone else was using the shit or had used it in a very long time. It was origional for him to bring it back at that point. and his shit is HOT!! Real talk, tpain be killin it you cant even hate. It aint his fault that other niggas hopped on it and started dick riding.
So fuck them other niggas who be jockin his style but props to tpain and others who come in doing them and other niggas take they shit and run it into the ground.
damn i didnt think marquis and myself would ever agree on anything, but cosign to everything he just said. lmfao @ the t-pain WB frog comment.
You crazy all that shit from Florida right now is hot. Put in some T-pain in your whip and chill on the highway. Plus you need a good sound system to even bump music like we do down south. That shit be bumping yo. You hating. How have they single handily kill the art of hip hop? Because their music isn't lyrical? Cuz its not from NY? Fuck you and your opinion bitch!
@Southeastcoast
(I'm addicted to my Blackberry!)
1st and foremost I'm from Baltimore and Richmond, Va. I have no loyalty to New York.
2nd you proved my point " Because their music isn't lyrical? "(hey you said it)
3rd your musical taste is a representation into why Florida public school education ranks in the bottom 20 out of 50 states year in and year out. In other words, your a fuckin space cadet.
Why don't you hit up Flo-Rida for some lip gloss and boots with the fur and fall in love with a stripper. Either you dance for beer money on the weekends or you sell oranges on the freeway. So before you come at me, you need to know me chump.
I fucks wit Trick, Uncle Luke, Pitbull. 1st time I heard Goodie Mob with Outkast on "Sky High", I shit my pants. Couldn't believe the creativity and I felt like the connected North and South with that one track. If you didn't get the South on that track, you never will. Crucial Conflict, Geto Boyz, Big Gip, Dungeon Family, Luda, T.I., Jeezy, Lil Wil, the list goes on. Thats who I ride with.
I don't fuck with correction officers, lip ring wearing cats, an over zealous arab who uses the N-word like its no tomorrow, a fat larva lookin guy, who is exiled from New York and a protein shake, lip gloss wearing, 35 year old singing about boots with the fur and apple bottom jeans.
Like I said you must dance on the weekends, to enjoy this type of music. It's the only way.
Look i don't giva fuck where you from. You must don't get out much or hit the clubs or something. Or you driving in some cheap car without a good sound system. Either way, any person can tell you that that Florida movement in this day in time is the shit. And i don't get how my musical taste affects the Education there?? I think your the one who is uneducated, last i checked y'all school systems aren't looking so good either...
If you don't like the artist and their appearances(homo) then just hate them. Don't hate the whole movement and the music. BIETCH!!!!
@Southeastcoast
lol yeh man education has to do with a lot of it. Death comes in threes, dumb-ass niggas comes in hundreds of thousands.
You sound real simple. So causse I have taste, I must ride in a cheap car with no sound system? Lol you the type of nigga that drools at the sight of a yo-yo, ol easily entertained ass.
If you don't musical taste across every genre, affects your quality of living, I'd be happy to give you articles supporting so. Like I said, you are a space cadet. Now go put on put your helmet and play adult soft-ball.
Are you serious? Im a space cadet? yea ok. For your information i listen and enjoy music of all genre's. I respect hip hop from the late 70's till now. I know who paved the way and who started the trends. The Florida movement right now is Hot point blank period. Thats whats bumping in the clubs thats what people are bumping in their cars. Not saying "Thats all people bump right now in hip hop". Just saying you cant hate on many and then like some. Or hate on one person and dislike the whole music as a whole. ....ok....im done explaining to your dumb ass you can go back to watching Lost in Space.
Sidenote: How does music affects and change your living? I listen across the board. Music might motivate a crime or something but actually changing your living as a whole naww... You can only imitate so far, and you think every single person on earth imitates? your dead wrong you feeble minded imbecile.
"How does music affects and change your living? I listen across the board. Music might motivate a crime or something but actually changing your living as a whole naww... "
-----------------------------------------------------------
Lol read what you just wrote..ACTUALLY EVERYONE READ WHAT HE JUST WROTE. Man don't ever get arrested. You might agree and disagree all in one sentence. lol Either way your credibility would be shot in court.
And I love how you take my precious props away as you rant along. I only give them and if someone disagrees with me I won't trash him. That's for our peers to decide. Lol my personal belief is you might beat "Plies the Goat" in -props, but his is intentional. You really have no excuse.
Actually I explained clearly what music can do. Finish reading if you can. That might be difficult for you I see. I never agreed and disagreed my point was straight out. SMH.@this retarded neophyte.
Your a pain in the ass who just trys and to keep up a conversation. So any reply comment of yours from now on is excluding the original topic and how i had to explain that your opinion didn't mean shit. If we had a poll up saying who won this "Debate" of yours then all percentages would go in my favor.
Good day mate!
look man i respect your opinion and your taste in music i mean your right 90% of mainstream shit is garbage...but at the same time your taste in music doesnt make it the correct chioce ppl listen to what they like and what they can relate to. so maybe you can relate to new york state of mind or just plain like it but the next person may not... just the way it is.
now personally (and i know ima get shit for this) i bump weezy... not C3 cause that was a ploy to get mainstream white kids to listen to his shit and sell more records... look at the carter 2 and besides the fact that he had no right to claim best rapper alive it was hot and who bumped it? every nigga in my hood and im from houston. now why didnt that album sell? cause mainly only real rap fans listend to it and not white kids...
but dj khaled yes he's trash, florida trash, but im jus sayin weezy wasn't always the way he is now but you gotta adapt to make paper ya digg.
FUCK T-PAIN, he didnt invent autotune....faggot
but he sure knows how to make hits and kill with it
So is he gonna pay jayz money for royalties to rap since he's considered the best at it to media? Tha whole autotune shet is retarted then tpain gets madd when niggas usin it nigga its tha entertainment industry that's like the first nigga rappin then other niggas start rappin and he gets madd cuz everyone wasn't rappin til he started or tha first nigga to play bball then he gets mad cuz otha niggas playin ball, this shet is like payin a nigga to be on his block diddy on some gay shet ucant pay respect to a nigga for somethin he aint FUCKIN create. Ithought tha fad is dying out but these niggas are actually trynna keep it alive instead of creating new, ihated this shet when it tpain first came out and people looked at me like iwas crazy then ijuss accepted now im not even toleratin
Fads im waitin to die
_akon almost at an en
-tpain die
-lil wayne seems like it is and ican go bak to listenin to him witout niggas caring and gettin an attitude like bitches
-tha rock & roll shet
-hater concept
-generally tha niggas in tha south who can't rap but ihave to keep hearing because some otha nigga in tha south wit a name is on their track
EAST SIDE WEST SIDE ONE OF UNIGGAS TAKE OVA PLEASE IDONT KNO ANYMORE DAMN
great another motherfucker using the auto tune
Damn man, if diddy has money hanging out the anus, why don't he donate that royalties to a charity or something, T-Pain might have brought that back, but doesn't mean he owns it. Diddy is a dumb fuck!
Why don't he donate that money to all the artists whose career's he ruined.
T-Pain ain't invent da auto-tune but he sure as hell took dat shit and ran wit it. He need 2 tell all dem otha catz dat wanna use it "FUCK U, PAY ME!!!!"
Diddy can do this, but he can't pay the artists he's fucked over?
Los for example
@iseelamepeople
Fuk that my nigga. I don't care if T-pain sells 10 million in a week, that nigga can kick rocks and give me hip-hop back. Rakim sold nothin in comparison to lil wayne and he bodies that nigga all day, in his sleep. See that's that herd mentality.
If Miley Cyrus outsold Aretha Franklin is she better? Oh but she on tv everyday so she must be doin sumthin right. Fuk her.
Man if we going to preserve this art-form we must, I repeat, we must challenge artists to not make or support bullshit and must challenge the listeners who are allowing this to happen. Next time you pull up next to a dude and he bumpin some bullshit, tell that nigga turn it off. Take your shit out your deck, throw it at him and tell him to study and I'm being serious.
Fuk khaled. Big collabo's my ass. "What it do" was hott cuz it was new. After that it has put me to sleep and he lost all credibility with that embarrassment to people in poverty "I'm so hood", which the hook itself is utterly ridiculous and all them niggas is the least hood.
Me and my boy was in our local bar and they happened to play something hott! It was "New York State of Mind" and of course we was rappin every word, grabbin our balls actin like some clowns, but when do you ever hear somethin like that in a bar/club? All the other kids black,white and spanish were scratchin their heads like "what's this"? "Is t-pain, lil-wayne or akon in it"?? Just thinkin about that shit makes me wanna shed a tear. They ruinin our culture man.
Lollipop comes on and the crowd goes wild. Next time imma get on of my little homies who don't give a fuk to start jackin niggas for the sake of hip-hop. lol its killin me.
I see where you comming from. You make alot of good points.
Im so hood was an embarrsement. But what about "go hard" or "We taking over" or "S on my chest" or "Bitch im from Dade County" or "Out here Grinding" or "Brown paper Bag" You mean to tell me you want bumping none of those?
But there are enough artist out that hip hop aint going no where. The radio may not play the music we wanna hear but it will if we support the artist we like. If anybody is killing hiphop its the fans. Niggas on hear be like i love lupe or common or so and so is underated. that nigga is so nice. GO buy an album!!!lol. Shit artist that dont sell wont come back to the rap industry its a known fact.
The only reason we hear who we hear on the radiio is because their the top sellers. Albums that flop dont get radio play.
LMAO at the tape deck shit.
MArquis...damn you're really saving me alotta typing over here!
I've been saying that same thing for a while now. Especially when Lil wayne went plati in a week. Grrrr I was so frustrated because now people like him a lot of others. Think that just becauseu sell some records... U instantly have the right to consider yourself "The Greatest".
If u sell a million records the first week. It's NOT because THAT cd was hott! It's because u somehow managed to generate an interest, or get some sort of publicity whether it was for doing something good like helping an old lady cross the street, charity work etc etc...or something nasty like being caught kissin' another man infront of a group of other men and photagraphers!!
THE GAME IS F-CKED UP NOW! (working on my cursing lol).
~Be Eazy!
"goin platinum, got nothin to do with luck, it just means a million people are stupid as fuck" - immortal technique
glad to see there's still people who know what hip hop really is
i couldn't say if the game was fucked up....cuz as much bullshit as it is nowadays its damn near equal to tha good music being put out. And can understand why they only play "lollipop" and shit like dat in tha club..(females)....n most girls listen to shit like dat...Rap used to be a more male dominated audience, but now just as many females like rap, so its gotten alot softer than it used to be...oh and diddy makin a WHOLE autotune album???? wat one person will buy dat?? seriously...
""Is t-pain, lil-wayne or akon in it"?? Just thinkin about that shit makes me wanna shed a tear. They ruinin our culture man."
Couldn't have said it better myself. somebody please tell me SINCE WHEN is it cool to BITE other people's style. wtf is wrong with Diddy your DIDDY!!!!! That dude really must be getting old because He has to look at other people to see what's "hot" now. even if it's straight garbage.
This shit really pisses me off the culture is dying hip hop is dying and I don't give a fuck if Jeezy's no lyrics-havin gooberhead lookin ass gets offended or not.
I'm not even mad at T-pain cuz he was the only one doing the shit it was his style then these non-singing rappers gonna jack it and DESTROY his little pop/hip hop shit. I really hate conformity I really do.
This must be how the heavy metal fans from back n the day felt when they saw their music pimped out, changed, and ran through.
Sidenote: I wish we could boycott BET. I mean really 106 n park is straight ass and you all know the deal will never be tha basement.
ppl should pay him for it. they should also pay someone to get rid of it.
the auto tune is whats making money in music nxt 50 will use it lol
50 has already used it in rider pt 2
Well i don't hate auto-tune, i kinda like it, but come on, its over used, only guy he can get away with using it are t-pain, and maybe kanye, but even thats a stretch
"With this news it is obvious that the Auto-Tune craze in Hip Hop is far from over..."
... why, its just diddy. No disrespect to diddy as a business man but if it was jay or nas doing this then i might agree with that statement.
@iseelamepeople
I feel u but we need that radio play. And dj's need to stop sukin dick.straight up. I remember a news castor rippin up the script on national tv becuz the whole report was on britney spears and whether she wore underwear or not. Who gives a fuck, right? So she did something that took courage. She refused to fuel the fire of bullshit. Dj's need to do the same.
As for Dj khaled's hits. Lmao never has that nigga been in rotation in my whip and I had to think about how "bitch I'm from dade county" went. That's the point! He makes forgettable tracks. Same with t-pain and everyone I mentioned above, but "new york state of mind" "coming of age", "how's it goin down","crumblin erb"... All still ride. Timeless my dude.
I double dog dare anybody to put on "out here grinding" or "bitch I'm from dade county" and listen the whole way through lol. You won't be able to do it and its only been a couple of months. Cuz them tracks weren't hot.
TRUTH @ not being able to play them songs in their entirity. Shit I can't play any of Khaled's "mega songs" all the way through.. How does Khaled even get his annoying ass on any of the songs.. i mean the dude doesn't even produce most of his tracks. Thats another thing tho.
SMH @ Dj Khaled. Fuck outta here I don't care if it sells

We taking over wansnt hot? I mean im not sayen its a classic. It doesnt compare to any of those classic tracks you named but c'mon. U cant tell me you didnt like we taken over.....
Dese niggaz make it seem lyke Pain brought autotune 2 da game, if Diddy wanna break bread lyke dat he should hit Troutman off wit sumthin, I aint gon front tho, Pain did turn it in2 an epidemic...... & I hate him 4 dat LOL
the auto tune is not that damn hot,i actually think its wack as hell,when will these so called rappers stop using it. It's cool for t-pain cuz thats his shit
auto-tune is just an effect..thats it...wether you like it or not its not that big of a deal..auto tune existed way before t-pain so he shouldnt get royalties for it because he didnt fuckin invent it....digg me?...if thats the case a certain percentage of those royalties should go to daft punk..there are plenty of others who used the auto-tune effect in the past...if t-pain invented it..then diff story...but he didnt...
why is diddy paying him for that shit? t-pain didnt INVENT that shit.. wtf like chris steez said its just an effect, an effect that was used BEFORE t-pain.. but i mean.. if diddy really feels he needs to pay him for it then fuck it.. but i didnt know u were suppose to get paid for starting a trend.. im not hating on t-pain but wtf seriously.. royalties? from auto tune??? hahahahahahahhahaha
Damn, ya'll are some haters. Diddy don't have to pay him royalties but he knows T-Pain is the reason people are eatin off of the auto tune. Hate if you want but Roger Troutman didn't make the auto-tune popular. He did some great songs with it but people didn't jump all over it like they did when T-Pain did it. And have ya'll ever listened to a T-Pain c.d.? Dude is creative as fuck. Ya'll are hatin on him just cause people copied him? That's some flaw shit... Hate the people that copy him, not him.
T-pain shouldve been collecting money from all the fagget ass rappers who took something good that t-pain brought back like wayne n kanye. everyone understands that he didnt invent it but when you talk about auto-tune/vocoder w/e it is you aont thinkin bout fucking roger troutman songs you thinkin of t-pain his shit was aight when he was buyin drinks nah mean.
Fuck T-pain!!! Roger Troutman is more gangster with the auto-tune more than t-pain.. Im from Dade county is a hot track, son( i hate Dj khaled). If you not from miami you wouldn't understand cuz growing in Miami is different from Orlando homie and i use to stay in orlando for a few years... I agree with you though
That could be one of the worst selling albums of all time...I never really listened to Diddy anyway and the fact that he is coming out with an auto album....damnnnnnnnnnnnn wackkkkkkkkkkkk hah
This will be a worse album than it will probaly already be with or w/o the auto tone and to top it all of u add Diddy it makes it even wroser he can't sing or rap for shit.I remember is download his last album and only kept "last night" after listening 2 the whole album.
also co-sign and +rep -=>Ph3NoM<=- for a good comment hip hop changes and this is change it is going into now so i suggest instead of complaining.You get some of your favorite rap music and jerk and cry 2 it and remember the good old days or look up some new artist on your computer or mp3/ipod that they suggest other and new artist that are similar 2 the artist you listen 2.
Also their are right times to use it and not to and I know tht I will probaly complain in the future about it but for now I don't care except for when its someone who can't sing for shit(diddy)
@Marquis Sade
I argee about all the stuff u said about messing up hip hop culture because its true that auto-tune shit is messing up hip hop as for diddy u paying t-pain for some stupid auto-tune it don't sound right but sometimes its alright to use it but not all the damn time
diddy needs every autotune he can get his music is wackkk and he better be payin off shyne wen he gets out wit sum of that album sale haha diddy is wack
Oh my mutha fuckin' G ,a whole auto tune album from Diddy ain't he like 40 who wants to hear that bullshit?
Diddy is such an ass. Just had to say that.
diddy auto-tune' s killing real hip-hop! stop doing that shit and just go back to dope biggie style
diddy is part of da bitchassness rappers... da fuxx u wanna water down hip hop for a fuxxin fake sound dats not even hearin da artist original voice. who ever listens to t pain or any artist with that vo coder shit is lame just as then. talking bout hip hop is alive bitch da shit soundin like techno. u u homo as rappers with da tight jeanz n kissin niggaz n otha ppl thats down with that. ya need to jump off da face of tha earth. honestly i dont even know why u ppl even buy they cds when u can download em off www.torrentportal.com or any
