Sonu Nigam on Auto-Tune: Singer Admits Using It in Songs, Says It Should Not Replace Real Singers
Amidst the debate surrounding the use of Auto-Tune in the music industry, veteran singer Sonu Nigam has spoken out about actors who use Auto-Tune.
In the present era, singers apply the technology known as Auto-Tune, but there has been controversy on whether it is right or not. On the other hand, playback singer Sonu Nigam, in a recent discussion, clarified the need for Auto-Tune and also admitted that he uses Auto-Tune in his songs.
Sonu Nigam clarified in an interview that with advancement in technology, recording styles have also evolved. Therefore, he needs to use Auto-Tune in some of his songs as well. But he poked fun at the actors who apply Auto-Tune for making their songs.
In a conversation with Komal Nahta, the singer said, "The era of Auto-Tune has definitely brought about a lot of changes. People say a lot of bad things about it, but I say, 'Whatever happened, happened for the good.' Back in the day, you had to sing without Auto-Tune, and we're lucky we've practiced without it and don't need it anymore. But I would still say I use Auto-Tune in some of my songs."
