Loving the album

A few songs that aren't my type, but very solid album

I did not expect this album to be good at all. It totally blew me away! I've listened to the entire album from beginning to end countless times already.

Wicked album. Only thing I can complain about is the use of auto-tune on a few songs. He has a really good strong voice, and should not need to mask it with it.

Getting back onto Straight No Chaser, will the album incorporate autotune?

I only use it maybe 30-40% of the time. Only when I think it adds value to the track and brings the emotion out. I want to give people value for their money but I’m not going to take it off just cause people feel it should be off, I’m using it as a tool to make things sound cool. If the song doesn’t need it, I wont use it. Like I said before, I think it adds a lot of emotion to the track, so the important thing is to avoid picturing why everyone is putting it on for the sake of it.
