Rise and shine.
Kylie Jenner has been criticized for the amount of Autotune she used on her “awful” new song “Fourth Strike.”
In the “Keeping Up With the Kardashians” star’s first single (released Monday on the streaming platform under the name King Kylie), she sings and raps over a quirky pop beat.
“One strike, two strikes, make me feel better/I just wanna say ‘I’m sorry’ to you,” Jenner says in the song’s bridge.
“Touch me, baby/Say I’m your baby/Write your name all over my body/If you cross the line, you might do it again (oh)/Do it on purpose to see how it ends,” she added.
The reality star ended the bridge by whispering “King Kylie.”
Fans shared on social media that they weren’t too receptive to Jenner’s newfound singing career.
One user tweeted: “How embarrassing to be the king of autotune 😂.”
“That’s awful,” added another.
A third netizen begged, “Please cancel the release.”
A fourth person mentioned Jenner’s beauty brand Kylie Cosmetics, saying: “Ooh make sure you use your lip kit.”
“Kylie… maybe you should leave the music to the pros,” a fifth listener wrote.
Another fan said Jenner’s songs sounded like “a Sephora ad with a beat,” and another source said the Keeping Up with the Kardashians alum’s pivot to music was a “sign of the recession.”
Despite the hate, Jenner, 28, celebrated the release of her new song on social media, even sharing a video of her 7-year-old daughter Stormi singing along to the lyrics.
The Hulu star also shared videos and snaps of him collaborating with duo Teller Jr. in the studio to record vocals for the song.
“Fourth Strike” is the follow-up to Teller Jr.’s 2016 debut song “3 Strikes,” which was featured in Jenner’s lip gloss campaign.
At the time, there were rumors that Jenner was singing background vocals on the song. However, she denied that it was her.
“10 years ago there was a little rumor that I was actually the one singing on 3 Strikes!” she wrote on Instagram on Monday.
“It wasn’t me (I wish it was), so I came up with the idea of uniting for a fourth strike, and that would actually get me noticed!”
