Suggest everyone should give this song a listen, Foxglove by @haarmband https://t.co/XojLcpb0Vi

The use of Auto-Tune is heavily prevalent in the song as West is singing throughout a majority of the song rather than rapping. #808s

[Sean Poueymirou @Sean_P514]

@jaimalhotra95 You've been quoted in my #Storify story "808s & Heartbreak: Kanye West's Most Influential Album " http://t.co/exlDf9fNaX

[Sean Poueymirou @Sean_P514]

Once Kayne resumes singing, he does so without any Auto-Tune, completely removing his filter and letting his emotion be heard. #808s

[Sean Poueymirou @Sean_P514]

We also hear a greater emphasis on the strings and less on electronic beats. At the 2:50 mark the electronic beats drop off completely #808s

[Sean Poueymirou @Sean_P514]

At the halfway point when he says “So I could never be your robot,” the Auto-Tune is dialed back, lowering his protective layer, #808s

[Sean Poueymirou @Sean_P514]

For the first half of the song Kanye utilizes Auto-Tune on his vocals, adding a buffer to his voice, removing himself from his emotion #808s

[Sean Poueymirou @Sean_P514]

During the chorus, after each line that ends with the word “Robocop” we hear an electronic sound resembling that of a robot. #808s

[Sean Poueymirou @Sean_P514]

After an intro of electronic drums and tones, music from an orchestra of stringed instruments starts playing. #808s

[Sean Poueymirou @Sean_P514]

“RoboCop,” the seventh song on the album, diverges even farther from traditional rap styles. #808s

[Sean Poueymirou @Sean_P514]

In the music video, West pays tribute to Ralph Bakshi's 1981 film American Pop by featuring the use of rotoscoped animation #808s

[Sean Poueymirou @Sean_P514]

These technologies add to the message and emotion of the song by once again emphasizing the cold, numbing sadness. #808s

[Sean Poueymirou @Sean_P514]

There is also use of a heavy, electronic distortion used on his voice for one line, “And we just gon' be enemies.” #808s

[Sean Poueymirou @Sean_P514]

In the lyrics of the song, West refers to his ex-fiancée as “heartless” and her treatment of him as “The coldest story ever told.” #808s
