Cher has done a lot of things. She scored her first Hot 100 chart-topper in 1965 and her last in 1999. (At 52, Cher was the oldest woman to land a #1 hit until last week, when Brenda Lee broke the record.) Cher sang backup on “Christmas (Baby, Please Come Home)” and “You’ve Lost That Lovin’ Feeling.” She helped modernize the variety show in the ’70s and defied expectations in the ’80s. She won an Oscar for Best Actress. The ubiquitous robotic Auto-Tune effect? Cher did that first. But Cher is not in the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame, and she thinks that’s some bullshit.
Also it’s hilarious that other motherfuckers think that auto tune effect was supposed to hide imperfections in her singing and not be a blatant and intentional vocal effect.
Motherfuckers never heard of a vocoder before.

“Believe” is a cheesy ass tune, tho
It wasn’t a vocoder in Believe but they did lie and say it was initially to keep it a trade secret.
