  • Martin Luther King, Jr’s “I’ve Been to the Mountaintop” Speech Gets “AutoTuned”… [VIDEO]

    VIDEO: Martin Luther King Jr “Sings” in Memphis

    Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. delivered his “I’ve Been to The MountainTop” speech in support of the striking sanitation workers at Mason Temple in Memphis, TN on April 3, 1968. It was to be the last day his voice was heard by the world. The next day, April 4th, King was assassinated on the balcony of the Lorraine Motel.

    I’m almost postive T-Pain has something to do with this autotuned version of the speech… if not, I ain’t mad. Whatever gets the message heard works for me!

    CLICK HERE for the full transcript of Martin Luther King Jr’s historic “I’ve Been to the Mountaintop” speech.

      That is beyond the worse thing in the world, how dare they. What is their problem? That is a sick and pathetic person with all the time in the world to do nothing real with. God save their soul, for they know what they do. Selah

      You know what. I obviously prefer the spoken version but I actually dont mind this being made.

      I mean, if this is what it takes for the young(er) people to pay attention to their history, then so be it.
