    Great reaction guys! Roger was the undisputed king of the voicebox. Please check out his other hits with Zapp. Computer Love, Doo Wah Ditty, and many others.

      @Raheem McKenzie Yes sir, it was actually a vocoder. They used many terms for it. But talkbox and voicebox were used as well. Yes sir, You're 💯 correct, Roger was an innovator and legend.

      @@robertislas8444 I thought the vocoder came out in the 90s. Am I wrong? Most of his hits were early 80s….like early early 80s. Nonetheless, his production and engineering was top notch for being done on reels. I’m still in awe of his clarity.

    I was at a friend's house drinking and when I was 10 bottles in we decided to turn the stereo right up and vibe to this song on repeat. I tell yah, being drunk off your face and having this song on repeat at full volume is on another level. I hope to sing it to my girlfriend someday. Love zapp and roger! Much love from Aotearoa New Zealand guys 🇳🇿❤

    A lot of people don’t understand that Zapp and Roger was one of the pinnacles of gangster music in Cali in the 90’s. From young to old and From the Cholos to Bloods and Crips to the Polynesians and to the northern Mexicans we all listened to them in our cars and BBQs.

    This was a new one for me, it is really beautiful. The only song that I was familiar with from Roger and Zapp was "More Bounce to the Ounce". I remember that being a fun dance song in the day. I am not a super big fan of the voice box but when you put it in context it was new and different at the time they were doing using it. I do love their funky sound. I really enjoyed the guitar riffs in funk music, they are amazing.

  • @octoberguy
    @octoberguy 2 ปีที่แล้ว +7

    Another great song in this style/era is "Love You Down" by Ready for the World. A smokin slow jam. Or "Oh Shelia" by the same group... sexy and funky. ... 80s baby!

  • @renehicks3942
    @renehicks3942 ปีที่แล้ว

    Hi. New to the Channel. The VoxBox, Voice Box or Talk box is not a computer at all. Roger used a custom-made talkbox-the Electro Harmonix "Golden Throat"-through a Moog Minimoog and later in his career a Yamaha DX100 FM synthesizer. This is the predecessor of Auto-tune. You are watching the video he made after creating the actual song. If you can find any video of Roger or the group Zapp, you will see Roger playing a keyboard that is connected to the voicebox. A clear tube from the Vox box goes in your mouth. roughly about 6 inches. You play the notes as you sing and it gives you an electronic sound. Roger was in so much demand and the family was doing so much with real estate in Ohio that Roger left Zapp. Are you familiar with California Love? Dr. Dre' and Tupac featuring Roger. Give it a listen. The first person that I remember using the Vox Box was Peter Frampton. He used it with his guitar so it sounded like the guitar was talking. Stevie Wonder experimented with it. He introduced it to Roger Troutman. Snoop went old school and used it for the song Sensual Seduction. The Vox Box evolved into the vocorder which evolved into Auto-Tune. Auto-tune was supposed to correct a bad spot in the recording but T Pain used it during a whole song and developed a sound. T Pain can actually sing. He doesn't need it. Auto Tune is a computer generated program. i haven't used my Vox box in about 25 years. Guess I'll dust it off tomorrow. @shawnandmel, keep doing what you're doing. This 60 year old man enjoys your discoveries into my past.

    I love ya'll reactions. Roger was the originator of singing with that computer like voice BEFORE Computers were used in the studio [1987]. So, this means you guys have to do "Computer Love" came out around 1986.

    The world lost a great one when Roger Troutman left it! He was tragically murdered in front of his recording studio by his bandmate & brother Larry Troutman. Larry then drove to the family home but never exited his vehicle and committed suicide in front of the house. Very tragic story. But Roger & Zapp left behind a ton of hit records & the remaining members of the family kept Zapp going & still tour to this day.

I love your Song Choices and You Both Are Awesome! I subscribed!! The first video I watched was Kid Rock Born Free. That song reminds me of my Brother in law That passed away 2 years ago. Sending love and positivity From Buffalo New York. 😊💙💫✌

    If you can find it, watch the Unsung episode Zapp and Roger. It was so sad. I had no idea of the murder until I saw that episode. It was a murder suicide. Roger was going solo from the group Zapp and his brother didn’t like it so the brother killed him and then himself. Each of them had about 10 kids.

    Shawn’s reaction by rubbing his chest when Roger sung the first verse has be cracking up laughing. I’m 53, so u came up in this music. Just think of the school dances and you dance with your crush on this song. Straight vibes. Please do a reaction to him with his group Zapp to these songs: More Bounce to the Ounce, So Ruff So Tuff, I Heard It Through The Grapevine, Doo Wa Ditty, I can Make You Dance, Do It Roger, Heartbreaker, and Computer Love. I’m telling, you won’t be disappointed. Thank you both for going back in time❤️❤️❤️❤️

    A very talented singer and multi-instrumentalist who left us way too soon. Had the pleasure of seeing him in concert years and years ago. He commanded the same and put on a great show, while playing pretty much every instrument that was on stage. I've never seen anything like it before live.
