Kanye "The Robot" West

So the man with the Iron Jaw is back. Kanye West is out to show the world that not only is he a rapper, but the man can flat out sing, sort of. 808's and Heartbreaks shows a kind of side that no one has ever seen, his inner robot. Every track on the album is tuned to perfection with a very electronica sounding West. Don't get me wrong, I thoroughly enjoy west and have all the way from The College Dropout. I even enjoy this album, but my question is how does he perform this live and be taken seriously? I am very much a fan of West, but not of constant voice alteration and pitch correction. Just let the soul flow.
