Are we laughing with him or at him? Does he realize how this looks and is just goofing off?

Someone posted in last night's thread that ESPN slowed down his rap to make it look even worse than it was.

I think this is BS. If they actually did slow it down then his voice would have gotten deeper. As far as I know there is no way to slow down audio while still maintaining the original tone. But then again I am not an audio expert.

They didnt slow down his voice, they slowed down the beat (which is his) to match his voice. He was just rhyming for them in the interview room, but espn attached the slowed down beat.

It is not at all difficult to perform time compression/expansion without altering pitch.

Audacity: Effects: Slow Tempo

I have no macro with which to say it but, I believe you have now been shown the method by which it could be done.

Or maybe he did it originally in a really high pitched voice.
