Jay-Z’s “Death of Auto-Tune” Music Video!

The music video for Jay-Z’s single, “D.O.A (Death of Auto-Tune)” premiered right after the 2009 BET Awards on Sunday. Hova plays  the cool Hip Hop boss in the video who runs everything. Suits him well, I think! It’s a rather simple music video, but likeable. Making cameo appearances in the video are actor Harvey Keitel and NBA star player, LeBron James. This song is off of Jay’s album, “The Blueprint 3” which has an aimed release date for September 11th. The controversial lyrics in the song have gotten a lot of rappers talking.

DJ Khaled had this to say, “It’s an amazing record. Jay-Z is one of the best in the game. Shout to Jay-Z for shouting me out [on the record]. I salute that, you feel me? I mean, music is music, you know what I’m saying? He ain’t dissing nobody, he’s just saying it’s overdone. He shouted brothers like T-Pain that’s supposed to do it.”

While Soulja Boy said,That’s a crazy track. I know it’s gon’ stir up a lot of controversy, but Jay-Z is one of the best so a lot of people gon be tuned into it, man. I don’t know what to say about that one. If people [will] stop using it, I don’t know, man? T-Pain, his whole thing is Auto-Tune, so you asking you think it’ll end T-Pain’s career?”
