Yes, he uses the vocoder. Obviously he's trying to be the next Coldplay instead of the next Jay-Z, and yeah it's going to work for him- but is it wrong if we kind of like this for what it is? It's not like he was going to keep rapping about being a college dropout forever (thank god)!

Check out 'Heartless' here ...they're nuking the links fast so get it while it's hot!
