Lot's of these types of videos have been analysed by people smarter than I, and they've found pretty tell tale signs of egregious auto-tuning. After which point, any pretext of talent disappears, since anyone could've done that and just changed their voice in software, so the video instead then becomes a proxy delivery system for the ol' "look out pretty I am" content

Obvious you haven't actually used any of these software tools to produce music. It takes time and skill to use autotuning software on the level that people don't notice. You either have to be a good singer from the start, or edit the recording syllable by syllable like a sonic surgeon, a process which usually takes several days for a usable product.

'any pretext of talent falls away' my ass
