Consider Billie Eilish as a synthetic voice rather than the genuine one. Spotify recently entered the world of Velvet Sundown, a full AI project including music, graphics, and an algorithmically generated narrative.
With a style that is too polished to be real, no live performances, and no interviews, Velvet Sundown has over a million monthly Spotify listeners and has been on various Viral 50 lists around the world. The truth—that everything was AI-created—was revealed only after the fact.
According to The Guardian, music industry leaders want AI-generated songs on Spotify and Apple Music to be clearly labeled, so listeners know what’s real and what’s not.
Roberto Neri of The Ivors Academy warns that AI raises serious moral questions around who owns music, whether creators gave permission, and how transparent the process is.
So, why did Velvet Sundown thrive while actual artists stalled?
Academic AI detectors achieve over 99.8% accuracy, while real-world consistency remains elusive.
Common complaints on Reddit include:
*“Actually existed band ended up being AI…”*
“Discover Weekly full of these AI songs lately!”
“Music became a dystopian sea of background noise.”
Once-fresh discovery playlists now spam suspected AI tracks, making authentic music harder to find. This enormous migration continues, with indie artists fleeing platforms that value AI noise over human creativity.
Spotify and Apple Music could follow Deezer’s lead by being more transparent about AI- generated music. Scholars and politicians in the UK and US argue that these countries should set a global standard by creating new policies.
When a completely fake band gets real streaming numbers, it's not just a novelty, it's a turning point. AI can be a powerful creative tool, but only if we prioritize transparency, protect artist rights, and human originality.
