Kanye West gives up hip-hop

Multi-platinum selling rapper and producer Kanye West will sing on his new album. Entitled '808's and Heartbreak', it features the artist singing with the help of the 'Autotune' software, which adjusts his voice to the correct pitch. The self-proclaimed 'Voice of a Generation', West has nothing but praise for Autotune. After '808's and Heartbreak' sold a million copies in one day, in the US, Autotune has now declared, 'I will go down in history as the Generation of a Voice'.
