Day of 102 of the infamous College Search.
Happy Martyrs Day (Azerbaijan).

Today is also unrelated-to-college-blog-day. Read on.

It's official: Good music as we know it is hitting the fan.
Nowadays, you can honestly be tone-deaf, have no musical background and be an awful singer and still be a one-hit wonder.

*For example: It was cool when Cher used Auto Tune (he oft-judged process that allows singers to perform with perfect pitch despite not being able to sing) to perfect ad computerize her voice. And even when T-Pain only uses Auto Tune when he sings, we can more or less agree that it's his trademark. But what about those overuses? The abusers?

Today, we'll be covering some of the greatest, not-so-talented artists who are currently running the music industry into the ground:

FACT: I DID NOT WRITE THIS. okay, now that that's done...

But may I point out 3 artists in particular:

1. Lady Gaga. Awful.
2. Kesha (oh, sorry - KE$SHA.) The worst of all. For all of you who haven't heard Tik Tok, she deifinitely does use auto-tune AND brushes her teeth with a bottle of Jack Daniels.
3. Bon Iver. HOLD UP. He uses a a) a talk box, and b) when he does use auto-tune, he doesn't sound like a train wreck. He can sing without it just fine.
