Hip-Hop
Lil Wayne’s “Lollipop” (2008), featuring Static Major, is a sultry, Auto-Tune-soaked hip-hop track that became his first No. 1 on the Hot 100. With a slinking electronic beat and flirtatious lyrics loaded with double entendres, the song was an instant club favorite. “Lollipop” not only dominated airwaves and earned a Grammy, but it also marked a turning point in mainstream rap’s embrace of Auto-Tune and electronic production, solidifying Wayne’s status as a pop culture fixture.
