Artificial intelligence is finally here, but how will it affect the music industry!? Some might say it's here to destroy the world, while others believe it will make the world a better place. Regardless of where you stand on that spectrum, A.I. will disrupt many industries, laws, etc. in the world from here on out.

The song featured “AI Drake” and “AI Weeknd”, which were voices that sounded almost identical to The Weeknd and Drake that we’ve come to know and love.
In 2022, we saw the rise and cancellation of FN Meka, an AI-driven rapper that dropped a song called “Florida Water” with Gunna…we don’t know how this era of music will be affected by AI, but the music industry might be altered forever on both the consumer and business side. What are your thoughts on AI? Let’s discuss.
