The pop music is really easy for the AI to do because the vocals were already "sweetened" with auto-tune in the first place in many cases.
If you do a search, you're going to find a ton of believable AI generated songs for Britney Spears and Ariana Grande. I think it's going to be a while before AI can make Brandi Carlisle sing something she never sang before and make it sound realistic.

Vivek G. Ramaswamy

-think/
If you think that debater-extraordinaire Vivek G. Ramaswamy ’07 is intense, you obviously haven’t met “Da Vek.”
“It’s the most shocking transformation someone will ever undergo” says Michael B. Chow ’07 of Ramaswamy’s rapper alter-ego. Though “Da Vek” raps libertarian prose with the utmost of ease, don’t expect to see him in section. The rapper, who fearlessly showed off his skills at the Busta Rhymes concert in spring 2004, only emerges when Ramaswamy is outfitted entirely in black, complete with a black Kangol hat. “They’re two completely different people,” says Chow.
When “Da Vek” goes into hiding, “The Chairman”—the nickname coined for Ramaswamy during his tenure at the Harvard Political Union—comes out to play. “I consider myself a contrarian,” Ramaswamy affirms. “I like to argue.”
The Kirkland House biology concentrator has quenched his thirst for debate through his involvement with the Institute of Politics and debating for the Harvard Republican Club.
Ramaswamy, who was raised in a traditional Hindu family but attended a Catholic high school, describes Harvard as the ideal playground for intellectual sport. He affirms that “Harvard teaches you to be a better questioner…you can be heard even if you aren’t in the mainstream.”
In addition to rapping and politicking, Ramaswamy is one of three College representatives on the Presidential Search Committee and is involved with the South Asian Association, club tennis, and intramural sports. “Vivek has a boundless capacity to get things done,” says friend Nicholas R. Green ’07.
Though described as fearless by his peers, when reflecting on his undergraduate career, Ramaswamy admits that he would’ve been “a little more tactful” if he could start over.
He offers rapper Eminem’s “Lose Yourself” as his life’s theme song. “I think that children should be forced to listen to it,” Ramaswamy says, “the edited version, of course.”

I know I've posted Blinding Lights by The Weeknd before, but I had to share these.
Holy crap these covers are so good.

Another good one I've been hearing on the radio the last few days.
I didn't even know it was Cannons. I've posted 2 songs by them here before.

Heard this one on the radio the first time last night.
The odd combo of Mumford & Sons with Pharrel Williams really compliments each other.
I've liked Williams' stuff all the way back when he did Grindin' with Clipse (featured in the Jamie Kennedy movie Malibu's Most Wanted). He also did "Happy" and "Blurred Lines" with Robin Thicke.
Dude's done a ton of stuff as a producer that I didn't even know. He's worked with everyone from Madonna to Gwen Stefani to Wreckx-nEffect to Maroon 5 to Jay-Z. He's even even written songs for cartoon movies like Despicable Me.
Talented guy.
It's no wonder this song sounds so different from anything Mumford and Sons has done before. I like how they start it off with a banjo as is customary for every Mumford song ever played on the radio but then the record scratch comes in and the song is completely different.
I wonder if this song is in any way related to the fact that the Leftist Cancel Pigs went after Winston Marshall in 2021. He split from the band after that so he could exercise free speech without involving them.

This one was on today. I've heard it before but made a note to find it this time.
White Reaper. They did another song I put in the music threads a few years ago.
I really like their sound.
It's interesting that in the chorus of "Pages" they pronounce the word "Intricate" the way they do, to make it rhyme with "Complicated".
I remember in their song Might Be Right I thought the lyrics in the chorus were "I'm always for, a little schadenfreude" but they changed the pronunciation of schadenfreude to make it rhyme with what I thought was "I'm always for".
No... They lyrics are "I always fall, a little short in front of you".
I just thought it was funny to just now see that they actually DID change the pronunciation of a word to rhyme in their chorus in another song.
