LUNCHBOX: 2008's Pop Star of the Year!
By Jim Shearer on 12/23/2008
Filed under: VIDEO BLOG Yeah that's right, I pulled some strings and managed to book the biggest star of popular music in 2008 for this episode of Lunchbox. Think of it as an early Christmas gift:The flash 8 plugin was not detected.
CORRECTION: Shortly after taping this piece I realized that I have been mispronouncing the word "vocoder" for years (pronouncing it with an "r," vocorder). I quickly contacted the vocoder's agent to reschedule the interview, but apparently he was already in the studio working on his next hit track.
So to all the technology and vocoder purists out there, I sincerely apologize. Tags: 808s and Heartbreak, Believe, Cher, Kanye West, Lil' Wayne, T-Pain, Vocoder, Vocorder
