*Rapper Prodigy, currently serving a three-year prison sentence for gun possession, has decided to release a Spanish-language video for his current single, “The Life,” and a full Spanish-language album titled “H.N.I.C. Pt. Dos.”
The member of duo Mobb Deep will use Voxonic’s Voice Conversion Technology, a software that converts recorded voice samples into different languages in the original voice, reports Billboard.biz.
The Spanish version of "The Life" is set to appear on “H.N.I.C. Pt. 2: The DVD Collection,” which will be available in stores July 8. The album “H.N.I.C. Pt. Dos” is due in September via Voxonic Music, the record label adjacent to the software.
Voxonic president Ari Deutsch told Billboard.biz: “I’ve always been a big fan of Mobb Deep, and he just happened to be available when I was looking to sign someone to Voxonic Music. I’m thrilled and couldn’t be happier that our first commercial release was Prodigy.”
Voxonic is a technology that recreates voice samples by using voice prints. An actual human translator does the vocals, which are eventually mashed up with the recreated voice print.
