I don’t have a problem with the concept, but the execution. They forced the samples into their own music, rather than really listening to the music inherent in King’s delivery and developing that.

How dare you disrespect a man like Dr. King? Dr. Kings words didn’t need this shitty auto-tuning to deliver a message. That is the problem with kids today, you think class is not cool. In a world where Justin Bieber can get more hits than someone as legendary and impactful as Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. bothers me. All I can do is teach my son who Dr. King was and what he stood for and why we honor him on this day.

It doesn’t matter about all that bullshit. younger Americans who wouldn’t care about this might get a real message from it. the more people who hear MLK’s words the better! Auto-tuned or not lol.

The only thing that would make this even better is if the video ended with the autotuners dragged out into the street and beaten to a bloody death by historians.

This is one of those things that seems like a good idea when you think about it but once you finished it you should have realized that it didn’t work out.

Weak track.

I get the same creepy feeling from this that I got when they resurrected Fred Astaire to dance in that vacuum cleaner commercial.

This could have been a LOT better than it is. It’s hard to tell what he’s saying, and the loud clicking in the background is, well, loud. Come on, polish it up a bit and give the man some respect for his hard work.

The video I posted was posted to youtube this morning. This video is the old one.  Check yo’ facts.

It is a sad irony of history that MLK and auto-tune were not contemporaries.
