What's An Autotune?

So my new job is kinda a bummer...glad to be working, but some days are rough. One of the most annoying things is the omni-present radio noise; it had been years since I listened to rock radio so the first couple shifts were surprisingly good. After a couple weeks, however, I've started wearing earplugs so I don't have to listen to the same 8 songs all the time. Seriously.

During a particularly brutal shift last week, I was walking into a different area (sometimes people have different stations in different areas) when I thought I heard
some familiar sounding horns. My first thought was "what motherfuckers are sullying this classic?". I was a little annoyed. Then I got closer and heard

"Walk the fine, short line, and put the needle to the grind
Representin’ one kind, seeing eye for the blind
Witness what I carry on bears a further purpose
From how we do slam a few, then you want to purchase"

I lost my shit and went to tell everybody else, after the song of course, but not one glimmer of recognition. The rest of the shift I kept hoping for more jewels, but all I got was that BEP song that makes me want to kill myself.

I miss the nerds...
