      He's an absolute legend but let me make the distinction that Future & T Pain don't use Talkboxes, it's Autotune made famous by Cher of all people haha. Computer Love is my all time fave, man I wish I could have seen Roger play live.
      Side note, I bought a talkbox a few months ago and honestly it's the hardest thing to make sound good in terms of hearing the words and not just the tones. Roger is truly the master.

    Roger was very impactful with this style and went on to do the hook for California Love with Dr. Dre & 2Pac and did other features as well. He was killed by his brother Larry who was also a member of the group, Zapp and then committed suicide after murdering him. Always love Zapp & Roger music.

    Took a picture with him and my best friend after his concert in San Diego in 1986. He was a cool cat, loved his music, and he was incredibly down to Earth. Came out after the concert to stand, talk, sign autographs and take pictures. I paid $20 bucks for that pic with him, which was quite a lot of money in 1986. His songs were everywhere. Tupac used him on an album. Computer Love was his greatest hit, or I Heard it Through the Grapevine. I was in shock when I heard when and how he was murdered. Very untimely death. By 1995 he was considered an Ol' G. LOL That voice box had him sick a lot from bronchitis types of diseases. Not a lot of people used that machine.

    This song had every girl at the school dance wanting somebody to ask them to dance. No auto tune back then. This is one of the greatest bands during this era. Brings back sooo many great memories. #CLASSIC

    Computer Love by Zapp/Roger. The voice box hooked to a keyboard is how they create the sound. You sing by playing the notes and kind of going through the motion of singing but not really making any noise (the keyboard supplies that). You have to use a little bit on consonants. Peter Frampton used a voice box and guitar, most notably on his song "Do You Feel Like We Do" if you want to check out a rocker doing it, slightly before Zapp and Roger.

    "Slow and Easy", an underrated song by the group featuring Shirley Murdock. Definitely "baby making music" ! 😉

    Roger and his brothers were so talented. They built homes too. The Troutman's. Roger = GOAT! Zapp is still performing.

    Ayo AYo this one's a classic yo that romantic vibe. I was born in 1990 and growing up listening to all the classics so it's always nostalgic hearing a song you haven't heard in a long time

    Finally! Yes!! I asked for this a while back! "Computer Love" and "More Bounce to the Ounce" are also classics! I was born in early 80's and I still love them! The older people would play this and I fell in love with their sound! I have their CD! He used a talk box and it's like this tube thing you stick in your mouth!

    This was sort of a voice effects device that Roger Troutman used quite a bit with his vocals. It basically turned his voice into an instrument. If you watch performances Roger had a tube running into the corner of his mouth for these types of vocals. This was probably one of 4 of Zapp's/Roger's best hits. Check out "Computer Love", "Doo Wah Ditty", "More Bounce to the Ounce" or "I Can Make You Dance".

    He was performing at the front row in Cleveland. This was a concert Hall that was in a round space. The stage was round and rotated. When he got to this song he told everybody to come to the stage. It was so many people that the stage stopped...lol
