Lyfe Jennings - Brand New ft. Lil' Wayne
Artist: Lyfe Jennings
Featuring: Lil Wayne
Producer:
Album: Change
Label: Mass Appeal Entertainment
The first musical-usage of a vocoder (vocal synthesizer) was by electronic music pioneers Wendy Carlos and Robery Moog in 1970. Since then, the vocoder has morphed into a ‘voice box’ and of late has taken over the industry. Re-popularized by T-Pain last year, artists such as Chris Brown and Snoop Dogg have jumped on board the box in favor of their true studio vocals. Clearly succumbing to industry peer pressure, Lyfe Jennings has followed the leader and used the revolutionary device on the new cut, Brand New. Interestingly enough, as popular as voice box-usage has been, Lil’ Wayne’s presence on a feature verse has been just as fashionable. Which will fade faster? The voice box or Weezy? We’ll see if both are still popular when Lyfe’s new album, Change, drops in February.

The production is tight...Lyfe Jennings is smoother than usual on this track...and Lil Wayne actually dulled down his voice and style a bit to match the energy of the track. Well done track right here! Wayne Rips it as usual. This is a hit!

well this does NOT sound like appologize, even the tempo is different, i just can't compare the two. I like this song but when Lyfe started singing at the start i thought his voice sounded reaall strange, but i got used it. Its the first song i've listened to by him.

Lyfe is taking OVA this thugish R&B iiish! ... Can't tell him NUTTIN'!!!! ... Jaheim, Iz U Sayin' SUMTHIN'??? Sorry, Jah used to be the man but I was kind of disappointed with his latest album. He hasn't grown at all. Same lyrics, different music.. "On the block, whips, laying cats down..." oh boy.

Wooooow wonderful!! BTW I agree with Fredrico, that annoying voicebox ruins the whole song which has a beautiful music + beat...can't stand voicebox and I wish everyone could sing with a REAL voice!

Some of you lames acting like he just came out, of course he can't sing he can SANG! This is his first experiment with the voicebox not his trademark get it the hell right! He mixes his real voice with the voicebox so shut the @*#$! up and vibe this song is the shit and he didn't win the appollo for those many nights for nothing because when he first came out they booed; get it right!
