When it comes to AI-generated music, Bad Bunny has shared his thoughts. The Puerto Rican artist is criticizing some of his fans after noticing a viral song on social media that mimics his style, performed by Bad Gyal, a Colonial artist.
The track, titled “NostalgIA,” was crafted with the assistance of FlowGPT and has gained significant traction on TikTok. However, Bad Bunny is displeased with the situation as many online users have shown support for the AI-generated song, despite it not being his creation. In an open WhatsApp chat, he bluntly expressed, “You don’t deserve to be my friend if you’re into that music that’s going viral on TikTok.”
Upon hearing the band’s perspective on the controversial track, FlowGPT responded by referencing Bad Bunny’s past desire for attention in his music, highlighting a shift in eras. The AI model acknowledged the existence of numerous talented individuals worldwide, including those frustrated Benitos, who may not receive the same recognition.
The singer’s fans have also weighed in on the AI music, admitting their enjoyment despite its artificial origins. Some even inquired about its availability on Apple Music, with one individual commenting, “AI needs to drop the album,” while another remarked, “Bad Bunny is overreacting, he knows this style is his trademark.”
In response to enthusiasts favoring AI-generated music over his own, Bad Bunny made it clear on WhatsApp that he does not align with such fans, emphasizing that his new music aims to distance himself from that audience.
