Here’s a crazy stat: Deezer reported that it receives more than 50,000 fully AI-generated tracks every day, which accounts for over 34% of its daily music deliveries.
That is honestly wild.
Whether people love AI music, hate it, or still don’t fully understand it, one thing is obvious: AI music is not some tiny little trend anymore. It is here, people are using it, and the music industry is going to have to figure out what to do with it.
As someone who has been involved with music for a long time, I look at AI music a little differently than some people do.
I’ve been playing piano for around 20 years. I’ve been using FL Studio for around 10 years. I’ve made beats, managed producers, worked on music projects, and helped run Slime Green Beats as a producer and executive producer.
So when I talk about AI music, I’m not looking at it as somebody who typed one prompt into an app and suddenly thinks they understand music.
I’m looking at it as someone who actually loves music, understands production, understands melody, and still believes human production will always be special.
I also made a video talking about my thoughts on AI music, which you can watch below:
My overall take is pretty simple:
AI music is fun. It is powerful. It is strange. It can be beautiful. It can also be dangerous if you let it completely change how you view music.
But I don’t think it has to be all negative.
AI Music Is Like Opening Pandora’s Box
The best way I can describe AI music is that it feels like opening Pandora’s box.
Once you start using it, it can completely change how you think about making songs.
That can be exciting, but it can also be a little weird.
On one hand, you can create song ideas faster than ever. You can test genres, write concepts, hear vocal ideas, experiment with styles, and build projects that would have been very hard to finish with normal human collaboration.
On the other hand, it can mess with your perception of music.
When you can generate a full song idea quickly, it becomes easy to forget how much work traditional music production normally takes.
Writing melodies, finding the right vocalist, recording takes, editing vocals, arranging the song, mixing, mastering, and making everything feel original is a real process.
AI compresses that process.
That is what makes it fun, but also what makes it dangerous creatively.
It can make you impatient with traditional production if you are not careful.
That does not mean AI music is bad. It just means you need to understand what you are getting into.
My AI Music Project: Robot Love
One of the projects I created using AI music was a tape called Robot Love.
The idea was to create a futuristic, emotional, AI-inspired music project and just have fun with the concept.
That is one thing I think people miss in the AI music conversation.
Sometimes it does not have to be this giant dramatic argument about whether music is dead.
Sometimes it is just fun to make songs.
You can listen to one of the Robot Love tracks here:
You can also check out the full Robot Love playlist here:

Creating that project was honestly fun.
As an executive producer, AI music gives you a way to test ideas quickly. You can come up with a concept, direct the sound, shape the mood, and move fast.
In the traditional music world, one of the hardest parts is getting people to move quickly. Finding vocalists, waiting on recordings, getting revisions back, changing ideas, and finishing tracks can take forever.
With AI music, you can experiment immediately.
That does not mean the result is automatically great. It just means the creative process becomes much faster.
Try Suno for AI Music
If you want to try AI music yourself, Suno is one of the most popular AI music apps right now, and honestly, it is very good for quickly creating song ideas, testing concepts, and experimenting with different styles.
This is the kind of tool that makes AI music feel fun. You can type in an idea, shape the direction, and hear a song concept come together much faster than traditional music production.
If you sign up using my Suno invite link, you should get free credits to start creating songs:

Just remember, AI music is still a tool. The better your taste, direction, and musical understanding, the better your results will usually be.
AI Music Still Needs Taste
One of the biggest myths about AI music is that anybody can instantly make great songs.
Anybody can make something.
That part is true.
The entry point is much lower now. Someone with no music experience can type a prompt and get a song that sounds okay.
But making something great is different.
That still takes taste.
It takes understanding music. It takes knowing what sounds good, what feels corny, what needs to be changed, what needs to be mixed, and what needs to be left alone.
That is where experience still matters.
If you understand melody, song structure, rhythm, vocals, mixing, arrangement, and production value, you are going to hear AI music differently than someone who has never made music before.
You can tell when something almost works.
You can tell when the hook is close but not quite there.
You can tell when the mix needs work.
You can tell when the vibe is good but the song needs more direction.
That is why I don’t agree with the idea that AI completely removes skill from music.
It lowers the barrier to entry, but it does not automatically give people taste.
I Still Use FL Studio to Mix and Tweak
Even when working with AI music, I still use FL Studio to mix, tweak, arrange, and clean things up.
That part matters.
To me, AI music should not just be “generate and upload.”
If you actually care about the quality, you still need to listen like a producer. You may need to adjust levels, improve the mix, cut sections, arrange parts differently, add effects, or shape the final sound.
That is where a DAW like FL Studio still matters.
FL Studio is still one of my main tools because I know the workflow, I know how to move quickly in it, and I can use it to make ideas sound more finished.

Human Production Is Becoming More Premium
A lot of people say AI is going to destroy music.
I don’t really see it that way.
I actually think human production becomes more premium because of AI.
When everybody can generate music quickly, the value of original human production becomes even more obvious.
There is something different about a real producer making a beat from scratch.
When I make a beat, I’m using my own process. My own ear. My own mistakes. My own timing. My own taste. My own sound selection. My own weird creative choices.
You will never hear another beat exactly like it because it came from my process.
That originality is still powerful.
For example, here is one of my human-made beats:
That is the difference.
AI can generate interesting music, but it cannot replace the exact human process behind a real beat.
That human fingerprint still matters.
The Term “AI Slop” Is Overused
I understand why people use the term “AI slop.”
There is definitely a lot of low-effort AI content being uploaded everywhere, including music.
But I also think the term gets overused.
Not all AI music is automatically trash.
Sometimes people hear “AI music” and immediately dismiss it without really listening or understanding what went into it.
That feels lazy to me too.
Yes, there is bad AI music.
There is also bad human music.
There are bad beats, bad songs, bad mixes, bad lyrics, bad hooks, and bad albums made by real people every day.
The tool does not automatically decide whether the song is good.
The final result matters.
That is why my attitude is simple:
May the best songs win.
AI Music Is Not a Replacement for Real Producers
I do not think AI music replaces real producers.
I think it creates a new lane.
There will still be artists who want custom beats. There will still be producers with unique sounds. There will still be musicians who want real instruments, real vocals, real collaboration, and real human energy.
That is not going away.
If anything, I think artists and listeners may start valuing human production even more once they understand how common AI music is becoming.
Human-made music has story, imperfection, personality, and originality.
AI music can be impressive, but human creativity still has something special that is hard to explain.
That is why I don’t look at AI music as the death of music.
I look at it more like a new format, a new tool, and a new creative playground.
The Fun Side of AI Music
One thing I want to keep coming back to is that AI music can simply be fun.
Sometimes the music industry makes everything feel so serious. Every release has to be optimized. Every song has to be monetized. Every decision has to be strategic.
But part of why people fall in love with music in the first place is because it is fun to create.
AI music brings back some of that instant creativity.
You can create a weird idea. You can test a song title. You can make a futuristic tape. You can create a funny concept. You can hear something that would have been hard to organize with real collaborators.
That does not mean it replaces the real process.
But it can inspire new ideas.
Sometimes that is enough.
Be Careful With AI Music Rights and Platforms
One thing I would tell producers and artists is to be careful before releasing AI music commercially.
Different platforms, distributors, and services may have different rules about AI-generated content, royalties, labeling, rights, and monetization.
Some platforms are already creating policies around AI music, detection, and labeling.
So before you upload AI-generated songs everywhere, make sure you understand the rules of the platform or distributor you are using.
Also think about whether you are using AI as a creative tool or just mass-uploading songs with no real direction.
There is a big difference.
My Final Take on AI Music
My honest opinion is that AI music is fun, powerful, and misunderstood.
It is not automatically the future of all music.
It is not automatically garbage either.
It is a tool.
And like any tool, the result depends on who is using it.
For someone with music experience, AI music can be a fun way to test concepts, create projects, direct sounds, experiment with genres, and move faster creatively.
For someone with no music experience, it can be an easy way to make something that sounds okay.
But to make something great, I still think you need taste, direction, and musical understanding.
That is where experience matters.
Personally, I still believe human production will always be king.
There is nothing like a real producer making a beat from scratch, using their own ear, their own process, and their own creative instincts.
But I also think AI music can exist beside that.
It can be fun. It can be strange. It can be beautiful. It can inspire new ideas.
Just don’t let it completely replace your own creativity.
Use it carefully.
Use it creatively.
And may the best songs win.
