Maybe that has something to do with recording technology getting more advanced. If I remember right, all his recordings beginning with Dream Street Rose were recorded digitally. And microphones got much more sensitive right about then, too.
As far as diction goes, if you take voice lessons, one of the first things you will learn is to make sure you don't chop off the final consonant in the last syllable of a word.
But I've noticed the same thing, especially on APPT.
