Jay-Z – Death of Autotune ** UPDATED **

So last Friday, Jay-Z got hip-hop buzzing again with his new track DOA – Death of Autotune. Battle Jay was back and he gave this directly to the New York Hip-Hop radio versus the internet or other means. From a beat perspective, if this is what we can expect from Jay on The Blueprint 3 when it drops on Sept. 11, then he could have a classic just on the production alone. His lyrics aren’t as scathing as they were on Takeover or Superugly, but I guess dissing RnB robots is not as big of a threat as Nas – so why go to that level to talk about DJ Webstar and Ron Browz. Is Autotune dead after this, probabaly not completely. But, with Jay-z hip-hop cultural influence, it will be as cool to do autotune as wearing a throwback jersey is. In any case, I think this is a dope song and has me anticipating more leaks from BP3. Props to Snicka for the instrumental.
