I didn't. I want to now though. Gonna look it up.
EDIT: Holy shit, I though he was using voice modulation on the album, there was just a vocal effect. That's just him legit singing! That's insane!

Yeah, the outfit choice (or lack thereof) was an odd one.

He was channeling his inner D'Angelo. I think the live version tops the studio version for me.

Yeah man, super impressed with that performance.
I really thought he was using autotune/modulation, so that came as an impressive surprise.

I think there was slight pitch shifting on the studio version, but nothing significant. He clearly can hit those notes nicely.

Didn't he say somewhere that there was next to no voice modulation on the album?

i wanted to like this but i'm struggling to find the soul in it. feels like the depth of it stops at the pageantry, like if he were to make a black metal album, he would go out and buy the corpse paint and leather pants before ever writing a song

"so he's doing this, because this is what's cool now."
funk in 2016 wasn't cool at all until this album came out. he made it cool

Well, to an extent, a lot of these sounds are cool now, some of the soul, RnB, and funk can be found in big albums like TPaB, Malibu, etc., which are still big in 2016, just not in as pure a form and direction as Gambino takes it. But to argue that this direction's considered "cooler" right now than what he was doing on Because the Internet is, from what I've experienced, quite wrong. Besides, I've a feeling he'd been planning something like this for quite some time now; Me and Your Mama was written quite a while ago. If anything, Gambino changed things up like this simply for the sake of fuelling people's perceptions of him as being hard to box in, which on one hand bothers me a little, but on the other isn't inaccurate by any means considering this album and Atlanta. To an extent, the album for sure is a pastiche, but at the same time, nothing feels disingenuous about it for me, I think Glover's just playing a character. One which seems to - as with BTI - explore themes and ideas quite personal to him, but still a character. It's nothing new for him.
