Johannesburg - Musician JR is probably as well-known for his auto-tune as Cassper is known for his ponytail, but this week he lifted the lid on his musical skills and revealed what he sounds like without the machines.
Posting a video on Instagram, JR says fans often ask him what his voice sounds like without the auto-tune, before bursting out into a song.
Just to answer some of ya'll questions during my session, here is my voice with no autotune just some reverb ???? pic.twitter.com/Vx0iNceRU2
