New Single bv Jay-Z “D.O.A” – Audio

Funkmaster Flex debuted this new Jay-Z song, “D.O.A” on the Hot 97 yesterday. Those of you haven’t heard it, you can listen to the track below. The letters stand for “Death of Auto-Tune” and it’s a song basically trashing all the new rappers who’ve decided to computerize their voice these days. The track is off of his upcoming album, “Blueprint 3”, which is supposed to be released on September 11 of this year.

I like the idea of the song, really. I’m getting so tired of hearing all this auto-tune that Lil Wayne, T-Pain and others have been producing. It’s enough now. But I’ve got to say that I’m not completely loving of how the song turned out. The singing part in the song is just so not great. If he had fixed that and made the beat a tiny bit stronger, I think the song would be perfect. I love the smack talk that goes on in this song, though. I’m glad he said something about this auto-tune crap. I loved how he said “You’re T-Paining too much”! Listen to it below!
