Nelly Furtado says her daughter saved her upcoming album with some blunt advice … calling her out for thinking auto-tune sounds cool.
The singer-songwriter spoke with NME all about her upcoming album “7” … and, she admits she got a little crazy when it came to auto-tune before her daughter shut her down.
Furtado says her Nevis, 20, told her auto-tune’s not cool, full stop … so, it shouldn’t come anywhere near her new record.
On top of that … NF says Nevis reminded her people love her music because it has so many dimensions to it — so she knew she had to dig deeper instead of relying on tech to get the job done
It’s a bit shocking Nelly considered using auto-tune at all … ’cause she was not a fan of the tech earlier in her career. She gave an interview back in 2004 where she said she never uses the tech. Check out the clip too — she seems pretty uncertain why anyone would.
BTW … Nevis is also in the music industry and she helped her mom on the album — so her advice was coming from both a daughter and a colleague.
Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.
As for the album itself — her first since her 2017 record “The Ride” — Nelly says she hadn’t stepped foot in a recording studio in three years … but, she felt it was time to create again.
The album’s out September 20 … no auto-tune included!
