Is this Auto-Tuned slow jam trolling or just terrible?

You decide.

YouTube has become a launching pad for the musical stars of tomorrow, allowing them to broadcast their talents and video production skills to a global audience.

It has also become a platform for truly awful musicians who should be banned from even singing in the shower. “IceJJFish” falls into this camp.

IceJJFish’s video for “On the Floor” makes Rebecca Black sound like pop diva. It’s horribly Auto-Tuned R&B that would bring any action during a slow jam to a screeching halt.

This has to be trolling. It’s too good of a parody of urban R&B radio for it not to be. And if that’s the case, play on, playa.
