8 Uses Of Auto-Tune That Are Actually OK

There's a reason Chance the Rapper is more likely to just call himself "Chance" these days: he spends almost as much time singing as he does rapping. Whether it's covering the Arthur theme tune or sing-rapping on "Sunday Candy", he makes good use of his distinct thin voice.

But on Chance's ebullient 2016 track "No Problem", he used a thick, in-your-face dose of auto-tune as a loving homage to the vocal traits of Atlanta's rap scene. The song itself blends gospel positivity with hip-hop aggro. The result is something quite special, and the autotune gives his reedy voice a drunken, slurred edge. Even Lil Wayne's druggy contribution is swept up in the jovial atmosphere of camaraderie.
