Lead producer Kanye West recently spoke about the album to MTV.com, saying it will be an autotune-free zone. “We actually removed all the songs with Auto-Tune off of his album, to make the point that this is an anti-Auto-Tune album, even though I released an album that has all Auto-Tune,” he said. ”It doesn’t matter to me.”
