Auto-tune is a often used studio technique that corrects someone's off-key singing. It "automatically tunes" it. It is used quite a bit in pop music to make people sound better than they really are.
Recently it has become a fad to purposely overuse Auto-Tune to give the singer this strange almost robotic voice. The singer T-Pain has based his career on the technique. He guests on many a top-40 rap or rn'b song. Kayne West recorded most of his last entire album using Auto-Tune. It is a fad that I hope is on the way out. So does Jay-Z!
