Mary J Defends Auto-Tune: You Do What You Do, I Do What I Do

Could auto-tune be the cause of the clash between the King & Queen? Mary J Blige speaks out about Jay Z's 'Death of Autotune' .

MJB spoke to Angie Martinez on Hot 97 says and made it clear that 'The One' where Mary uses auto-tune, isn't indicative of the rest of her upcoming album.

"This whole album I've done is Mary," Blige said Thursday (June 11) as a guest on Angie Martinez's New York radio show.

Blige said "The One" introduces the world to "Crazy Mary." "It was for effect," she said of using Auto-Tune. "I wanted 'Crazy Mary' to get her shine on. She couldn't get her shine with my regular voice. I used the effect. I used it as a telephone effect or reverb."

Blige said she's indifferent to the whole Auto-Tune debate in the wake of Jay-Z's "D.O.A."

"I won't say that it bothers me, because people do what they have to do," she told Martinez. "I can't pass judgment. Everyone else does what they do, and everyone has their own opinion. To each his own. Do what you do, because I do what I do.

Blige also talked about the now-infamous Internet footage of her stepdaughter punching Charles Hamilton in the jaw. Briana Latrise, who is Hamilton's ex-girlfriend, punched him in the face during a rap battle when the MC got a little too disrespectful.

"I feel really bad," said Blige, who questioned why the incident was put on the Net. "It doesn't make me proud to see her doing things like that."

Jim Jones & DJ Webstar Responds To Jay Z's 'Death Of Autotune'

Jim Jones know he is wrong for setting that lil dude Webstar up. Jim might can hold his own when it comes to going back and forth with Hov. Mr. Chicken Noodle Soup aka Dancin' On Me aka DJ Webstar-PLEASSSEEEEE quit while your ahead.

While known for having past differences with Jay during his affiliation with Roc-A-Fella Records around 2003, Jones expressed his feelings towards the rapper's new song.

Via Jim Jones Twitter:

"Above all Summer Jam was dope," Jones wrote via Twitter unmodified. "And I got to see Jay-Z who refused to get out of his van when he saw my pretty face. We was mobbin', he's still a sucka...A old sucka. lol. We back and if he killed autotune then we must be Easter the resurrection. lol Shouts to Soulja Boy Tell Em, he ripped...I saw Jay-Z and Tata they didn't say nothin but sit they a** down when they saw the Spartan 300's lol...I'm glad to see I got everyone on Twitter's attention. I love Twitter, it's trouble maker, good morning everyone."

Addressing Jay a bit more directly, Webstar did not hold back his reactions towards the rap mogul's Blueprint 3 single.

Via DJ Webstar Twitter:

"Who heard old a** Jay-Z hating," he wrote via Twitter. "Bottom line is a 40 year-old can't relate to a 17 or 22 year-old so he could never end my career. @bowwow614 I know he's a legend bro, just like you a legend but I don't give a f*ck about that just 'cause you a legend don't mean you take out my family's mouth. At the end of the day he's a human just like me, he ate already enough for everybody, let the young n*gga's eat. I know y'all said he ain't say my name but who else could he be talking about besides me and [Ron] Browz? He shouted everybody else out that do it. And I only have two songs with autotune anyway but still right is right and wrong is wrong, legend or not!"

These lil young pups gonna learn to respect the king! It would be hilarious if Jay buy that lil prick's contract. Webstar better stay in his lane. Not to mention, Jay Z probably dont even known a DJ Webstar exist. All I got to say is Boyyyyy STOP!
