You need to try out https://suno.com/ then. It makes better music and
sings better than anything in the UK pop charts right now.
I just did, and it was awful. It rhymed and had a standard chord
What? You must have been listening to too much modern pop music that
it's rotted your mind.

What is wrong with it rhyming and standard chord progressions?
Nothing at all. That's the bare minimum, which is exactly what an AI can manage -- and all it can manage, without firm human guidance.
Tell that to Paul McCartney.
You have
clearly being brainwashed into accepting deficient garbage instead of
real music. Emperor's New Clothes Syndrome once again.
If you think AI sound prediction is music, you're in no position to
evaluate my taste.
Your taste has been dictated to you by the people around you rather then
the music itself. If you were in a position to appreciate music on the
basis of composition and singing ability you would have sided with the AI.
Nope. The AI voice always hit the high notes and didn't slur, howl,
yelp, bark and mumble like modern pop singers who think singling is
about impersonating a drunken dog.
I shudder to think what you're trying to listen to, and I also wonder
why.
Well, I've just been listening to the AI singing and playing "Havana Electropop" which it selected for me and surprisingly I could understand
every word of it despite it being sung in Spanish which I have very
little to no knowledge off whatsoever.
This tells me two things, firstly that the AI singers are far superior
to real life singers since unlike modern pop songs I can recognise every single word they are singing. I can barely do this listening to the
Billboard Latin charts or the English pop charts these days because the howling, slurring, barking, mumbling, and yelping is so bad. Secondly
the AI is using a very simple and limited language model to write the
songs since I know all the words it's using in a foreign language, and
still it can write far far better and meaningful songs than today's pop singers and composers who write absolute incoherent and meaningless
garbage which usually consists of the same two or three words chanted
over and over and over again, sometimes in different intonations, most
of the time it's exactly the same sample being repeated, which is what
modern EDM and R&B solely consists off now.
Once again the AI wins by a landslide.
Now it's getting me to listen to Classical choral music it has composed
and ones again it's far superior to the modern dissonant crap that has destroyed the entire classical genre since the 40s and 50s.
The model for writing the lyrics is still very simple but this results
better composition.
I watched Glastonbury. All the modern singer were complete and utter
crap with no idea how to sing or to write music. The only good singers
were the ones from 40 to 50 years ago. Even Rod Stewart who has almost
completely lost his voice could still sing better than the modern dog
music passed off as pop.
Well, duh, and that's because modern pop is already half AI.
Nope. It's worse than AI. Gary Newman who I learned today is now almost
stone deaf was singing far better and in tune and in key than any of
today's singers despite not being able to hear most of the music.
Try Bandcamp, if you don't know where to start. Put in the names of some classic bands you already know to be good, or just head for a genre you
like, and you'll probably find a few good newer bands.
Tried it. It's all absolute crap and there's no Reggaeton, Bachata, or
Salsa. No Tsifteteli, Chiftetelli or Maqsoum either. Doesn't know it
under the term Fellaha either, so no bellydance music then. It seems
that you have a very limited knowledge of music. AI writes and performs
it better and has got almost all the genres sussed.
Now listening to Hyper Egyptian and Egyptian Swing from the AI. It knows
the generas perfectly.
