- What's Going On with Music and AI in 2025?
We’ve seen AI technology creep into our everyday life more and more as time goes on. For musicians, and creatives as a whole, we need to look at how AI is impacting our work and our industry to not only combat its bad side effects but also work alongside its good ones. The most concerning AI prospect for musicians is AI music generation, with both lyric writing and music production. The US courts have made some recent strides in protecting human generated art, which I’ll discuss in a bit. Yet, we’ve seen some positive consequences of AI in the music industry, with certain algorithms utilized by many music-focused companies to better improve the fan and artist experience. Let’s not avoid the big concern on everyone’s minds - yes, AI has been used to generate music. Programs like Suno AI and Udio are available to easily generate lyrics, instrumentals, or both with a simple text input. AI music generators are not only cheaping and devaluing the hard work of all of those involved in the music creation process, but the sourcing of data is what’s concerning. These programs aren’t creating music out of thin air - it’s generated from millions of songs; those that have all been created by humans. The Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) sued Suno and Udio on behalf of Sony Music Entertainment, UMG Recordings of Universal Music Group, and Warner Records Inc. because the services, “[train] on the expressive features of these copyrighted sound recordings for the ultimate purpose of poaching the listeners, fans, and potential licensees of the sound recordings it copied”. They’re not the only ones who have sued those services - country singer Tony Justice sued them for copyright infringement as well. The suit states, “rather than simply license these copyrighted songs like every other tech-based business does, Suno/Udio elected to simply steal the songs and generate AI-soundalike music at virtually no cost to Suno/Udio” . Some generative AI companies cite that fair use makes their services legal, as in some circumstances you can use copyrighted material in the creation of new material. Although these lawsuits are still ongoing, the US Court of Appeals issued a landmark ruling that denies copyright protection for works created by AI. The ruling firmly asserts that works that are fully created by AI cannot be protected under US copyright laws. The ruling was in response to a lawsuit by Stephen Thaler, who unsuccessfully tried to register a picture created by his AI platform through the Copyright Office. Since Thaler cited that his platform was the sole “author” of the picture, the Copyright Office would not grant the copyright. The three-judge panel in this decision ruled that a non-human machine cannot be an author under the Copyright Act of 1976, the US’s current set of copyright laws. AI has already infiltrated the way we listen to music. Major music platforms like Spotify use AI to tailor the user experience (you can read about it in my article here ). Since then, Spotify has developed its own AI playlist generator, where a simple text prompt can generate you a custom playlist. Apple Music’s AutoMix feature, which seamlessly transitions between two songs as if there was a DJ mixing it for you, is powered by AI. Advertisements on these platforms also use AI to best identify what content would be best for you to consume. There’s no telling what AI can do for the music industry, and it can be good or bad. AI can be used to inform A&R representatives on who to sign, create interactive concert experiences, and more. However, there are very dangerous risks that AI poses to the music industry. Impersonation, deep fakes, and the overall undermining of real humans and their work pose a great threat to musicians and the music industry as a whole. But, approaching AI use with caution and transparency can help ensure that the technology is used in a safe and ethical way.

- Review: "Bad Habit" - Yana Rose
Yana Rose has just released her breakout single of the summer, “Bad Habit,” a broodingly addictive track that holds nothing back. In this song, Rose exposes the never-ending cycles that come with toxic relationships: flaky behavior, shady patterns, and a long list of red flags. “As soon as he’s a little distracted, we slip back to bad habits," Rose sings, knowing all too well the signs of eyebrow-raising tendencies creeping back in. Telling her story with a cutting edge and catchy melody, Rose creatively captures the attractive, yet dangerous habits partners fall into when impulse makes them all too tempting. Sharp and cleansing, "Bad Habit" offers a glimpse into Rose's artistic depth and poignant storytelling. "Bad Habit" combines a dark indie-pop sound with a jazzy underbelly to create something both hypnotic and musically dynamic. The striking bassline immediately grabs the listener's attention, setting a sultry, moody vibe for the rest of the track. Rose adds in wispy harmonies and whispered ad libs that give the song an entrancingly intimate feel. Lastly, the hook is undeniably addictive; Rose's vocals float gracefully over the instrumentals and give the song a perfect touch of sweetness to counter its cutting instrumentation. Overall, this song is one listeners can easily get lost in. Gliding along the beat and swaying to the all-too-real lyrics, this "Bad Habit" is perfect for replays. Nashville-based singer-songwriter Yana Rose is a rising Indonesian-American artist with a genre-bending voice and a heart built for emotional honesty. After graduating college, Rose chose to follow her heart and pursue music as a career, finding her niche in vulnerable storytelling and deep instrumentals. Rose’s fusion of various genres, paired with her authentic lyricism, expands her sound to all kinds of audiences and has helped solidify her place in the indie-pop scene. In tune with her complex emotions, she captures the complexity of being human: the beauty in heartache, introspection, and messy relationships with ourselves and others. "Bad Habit" is just one of the many beautiful demonstrations of Rose's special outlook on the craft and one-of-a-kind charm. She has an exciting project on the horizon, with a new upbeat single releasing in October that will showcase the dualities of her artistry and talent.

- Review: "Okay I Guess" - She Is Jules
In her new single, “Okay I Guess,” singer-songwriter She Is Jules covers the feeling of not knowing how to answer the lingering question of how we are during the hard times of our lives. Trying to keep yourself together while feeling like you’re barely hanging on by a thread can be a hard situation to be in, and when asked how you are, is it better to answer with the actual answer of falling apart, or act like everything's fine? With Jules in this situation due to personal reasons at the time of writing this song, “Okay I Guess” looks back onto the emotional dissonance while going through the trying times, and explores how looking perfectly fine on the outside sometimes couldn’t be further from the truth. “Okay I Guess” not only covers important topics such as mental health struggles and the struggle to accept support, but also is just a great song in general. “Okay I Guess” is not only gut-wrenching to hear, but also really relatable to anyone who’s felt the need to be strong despite the circumstances that are slowly breaking them down. With Jules’ incredibly vulnerable lyrics comes a sense of not being alone in this feeling, which can be the most isolating of them all. Whether it’d be a lack of knowing what to say or being able to function while wanting to push the emotions one feels deep down, Jules hit the nail when it comes to the feelings in “Okay I Guess.” She Is Jules, also known as Jules Pollifrone, is an American singer-songwriter. Learning to play guitar at age eight, Jules has been on the rise as an artist. Well-known for her vocals on “Mad World,” sitting at near 200,000,000 streams, Jules’ singing abilities aren’t ones to be doubted.

- Review: "dodging bullets" - myah
myah’s “dodging bullets” explores the redundancy of dodging bullets and still getting hurt through an active sound filled with stand-out sound effects and powerful strings. She tells the story of a breakup, where her friends think she’s lucky because she's free from her ex. However, she debunks this as she sings “ why does dodging bullets even hurt me? ” as a way to acknowledge the frustration and pain of breakups- even when they’re “good” for you. Notable lyrics like “ tip-toed too close/ so it bit me ” symbolize the emotional threat of consequences that follow breakups. She buckles with “Brace for impact!/ yeah I’m bleeding/ if it means that you’ll be with me, ” letting the intoxicating draw of an ended relationship rekindle her spirits, conditionally. Ethereal, yet potent, vocals introduce the track alongside enthralling melodies built by a guitar-drum duo that flirts with slide whistle sound effects. This evolves throughout the track as myah sinks in and out of her feelings. Variation in sound patterns within the middle of the piece contribute to a sense of variety that makes the song well-rounded. myah’s voice, paired with another that shouts, adds a passionate angst that compliments the romantic glum this track works to untangle. Her voice is a mix of conversational and airy styles that combine for the ultimate versatility. A developed guitar solo that carries the beat to the end of the song guides stacked, echoing vocals to a clean fade out. myah is a musician from South Florida that’s inspired by Yeah Yeah Yeahs and Modest Mouse . Her storytelling and vocal style is remarkable, and she implements both with her knowledge of emotion/feelings spectrums. She’s also a cinematic creator that has worked on music videos for 24K Goldn , Kehlani , Tinashe, Steve Aoki, Oliver Tree, and more. Her debut album will be released this August, and she’s played at Troubador, Whiskey a Go Go, and The Viper Room in 20242. She has over 150K streams on Spotify, and released her first single “Better Not” in 2019. I'm excited to see what she does next. View her socials below for updates, music, and more information!

- Review: "I Just Remembered!" - Mira Housey
Mira Housey’s new song, I Just Remembered!, is a post-breakup adult contemporary/pop song. It takes place in the final stage of a breakup: acceptance. After denial, shock, anger, bargaining, and depression, you now have to accept that you’re not getting back together with that person and move forward. It feels like the weight of the world is lifted off your shoulders and you can focus on loving yourself now. It’s not the type of breakup song you’re going to cry listening to. It’s the type to make you hold your head high and walk with confidence as you embrace your single era. While we crave romantic love, a lot of us struggle to obtain self-love until we get our hearts broken. I Just Remembered! doesn’t waste any time jumping into the first verse. Lyrics such as “Bought me a latte and paid in cash, then took the memory of you out with the trash” and “And thank god, you're not a pro athlete, the way you fumbled me” focus on forgetting her ex. In contrast, lyrics like “I just remembered, I’m me and I’m so ‘yes please’ and not to be dramatic, but I'm the whole package, baby” serve as self-affirmations to boost her morale. The replay value is high because it brings a fun and happy vibe to a major life change. I’m adding this to my current playlist because it’s the type of feel good song I’m craving this summer. Mira Housey is a songwriter and producer hailing from Detroit, Michigan. She joined Rick Rubin’s studio in Malibu in 2021 and signed a deal with Autumn Rowe and Spirit Music Group in 2024. She is a classical piano prodigy having competed nationally as young as seven years old. She formed a band freshman year of college and graduated with a degree in Sound Technology and Business. Her biggest inspirations are Julia Michaels , Ariana Grande , Taylor Swift , and, arguably the greatest producer of all time, Max Martin. Make sure to check her out on social media and I encourage all of you to support female producers when you can. Written By Jazz FOLLOW Mira Housey: Instagram | Spotify | TikTok | YouTube
- Review: "wish i met you when" - Alexa Kate
Alexa Kate’s latest song, “wish i met you when,” is like passing through a once-warm ghost town, with the melancholy that you can’t relive the same feeling. When the desire’s strong, the potholes and construction signs don’t turn us away—there’s hope to fix it, to stay in the city that holds glowing memories. But is it possible to grow surrounded by damage? The message remains the same with the people we love—the people who want casual when we want an emotional connection. Alexa Kate sings, “You told me you couldn’t commit and then you’d kiss me like you were lying.” Like many of us, she fantasizes about a time when they would both be healed and truly enjoy life together. The ideas sting like finding gold fading off a locket deep in the glove compartment. One happy photo sparks the question, “What if things were different?” The emotional tug-of-war pours out in the acoustic guitar against the electronic drum set. Nostalgia flows through the strumming, like catching a glimpse of fireflies on their front porch. It pulls out this tender desire, lingering to relive the experience. The electronic drum set and catchy rhythm replicate how time keeps moving us forward despite our magnetic attraction to the past. There’s a stronger energy waiting at the end. Alexa Kate’s voice fills the song with comfort, like a string of warm lights on the porch. The song is a safe place. Her vocals heighten the vulnerability from the small, low moment. The bridge feels like waiting at a red light—still, reflective, and a chance to take in the surroundings. When the chorus hits, the beat pounds like a foot to the pedal, pushing forward with bittersweet momentum. The song is a delicate scene in a rearview mirror. Alexa Kate brings music to any city she steps into. Born and raised in New York, she has spent time songwriting in Nashville and Los Angeles. She began writing music as a child—ever since she can remember—and released her first single, “Why?” in 2016. Alexa Kate released her debut EP, wishing you well, in 2024.

- Review: "The Best Things (Worth the Wait)" - Matthew Orgel
Artist Matthew Orgel lays his heart on the line with his latest single - “The Best Things (Worth the Wait)” - showcasing to listeners a story that’s both raw and beautiful. Orgel opens up about sexuality, patience, yearning, and reflection in “The Best Things (Worth the Wait)”, a single that’s both a standalone, powerful piece as well as all-encompassing of his EP – “The Best Things.” Similar to the EP as a whole, “The Best Things (Worth the Wait)” expands on the messages exemplified throughout the EP. Orgel emphasizes all sides of relationships, romance, and how difficult it is to navigate relationships. In this single, he brilliantly paints all of these aspects – both enlightening and disheartening – and ties it altogether to create a space & sound that’s comforting, offers acknowledgement, and provides a specific kind of realistic quality that is rare in music and relationships. While “The Best Things (Worth the Wait)” may delve into topics that bring up heavy emotion, it additionally evokes strong feelings of comfort and happiness. Orgel created a space within this song that utilizes his talent to its fullest extent, birthing a song that will reach others as well as provide a fresh outlook on life following its final note. Orgel’s approach to “The Best Things (Worth the Wait)” is one that goes against the grain of most pop, in my opinion, and instead showcases an attitude that is more accurate to reality and still inspires hope. The journey he describes with his sexuality is one that can be resonated with, regardless of sexuality, and brings light to a voice & messages that need to be more often heard in music. In the world of pop music specifically, Orgel introducing this track is both bold and intriguing. Rather than cater to a restrictive type of sound or do something that’s seemingly been done before, Orgel provides a song for listeners that is delicate, personal, strong, and universal. It is everything a pop song should be, all while not sticking to a “play book” / what is typically expected from pop artists. While “The Best Things (Worth the Wait)” is a more reserved, pretty, and emotionally laced pop song, there are details and messages of light strewn throughout the track, giving a balance and well-rounded listening experience. Whether you’re a fan of upbeat, more “classic” pop or a fan of unpredictable, unique and “out of the box” pop, Orgel has given listeners a song that has something for everyone. Matthew Orgel is an artist born & raised on Long Island, New York. As early as age four, Orgel began his musical journey. At first, he took to singing and quickly after started the journey of writing songs. Currently attending Berklee College of Music in Boston, he is following his aim to inspire others and make them feel good through listening to his music. He works to mix meaningful lyrics with melodies and an overall sound that makes you excited to listen to, blending personality with skill. Since beginning his career, his work has been noticed on platforms like Instagram by artists. Songwriters, performers, etc., such as Tyler Johnson, Meghan Trainor, and Mike Sabath have shown him recognition, displaying just how impressive he is and how thrilling it is to watch his career unfold over time.

Sammm released her brand-new single titled “you’Re nOt soRrY (it will haunt you)” on May 31, 2025. This song is about the honest truth that comes from a relationship that doesn’t work out. While dating can be so fun and exciting it can also be one of the worst experiences of your life when it ends. There are all these thoughts about what was real and what was not, which leaves you unsure about them and most importantly yourself. Losing someone you thought you’d spend the rest of your life with is such a hard truth. You may feel like nothing is real and that you’ll never recover, but after some time life gets a little better and eventually you realize they weren’t for you, and you are much better off. “you’Re nOt soRrY (it will haunt you)”opens with a booming drum beat that quickly grabs your attention. The beat reminded me that something better is to come from whatever the situation may be. Her vocals were also super relaxed at the beginning as well which made for the rest of the songs fast beat amazing. I thought the steady beat throughout the rest of the song made this track seem super familiar and homey. Which also made the lyrics stand out so much especially with lines like “You held my heart with gaps in your fingers” and “No intentions of actually loving me.” The whole song was extremely relatable, and I loved every second of it.

Quickly shifting to the lyrics from the intro which were amazing at every moment. The lyrics were super relatable and honest like “Don’t break my invisible heart / If you don’t see it then it doesn’t hurt.” I simply could not get enough, not to mention how catchy the rhythm was throughout.

- Review: "Late Bloomer" - Kel Adore
Kel Adore’s “Late Bloomer” symbolizes an untimely arrival of someone in her life, or finding a sense of belonging, through gardens and blooms. She sings about changing winds and going somewhere, though not exactly knowing where. This floating dynamic encourages her to sing “no room in their garden/ feeling like a loser/ put your roots here darling,” making room for those who don’t have a place to go. She admits how she wished they got there sooner, calling the new plant in her garden a “late bloomer”, yet mentioning they’re right on time. After this, she notes how dandelions “spring up no matter” and it's “never too late”, so “bloom away”. This empowers those who may feel a little behind in life, and invites them into Kel’s garden- even if they’re a little late. The track starts with sweet vocals and buried strings that set an optimistic tone. Kel’s voice has a slight twang when performing the chorus, which adds depth to the song. Layered vocals during certain bridges work to create a unity that compliments the message of the track. “Late Bloomer” is a feel-good, bounce-back song that liberates “late bloomers” with a bright soundscape that delivers swinging positivity. Rooted drums and a light tambourine convey summertime sentiment when Kel slows down to build the reiteration of the triumphant chorus. The sound dives into silence for 1-2 seconds after this peak to attract attention and keep it. The song ends with complex production that accounts for every corner of the soundscape. Kel Adore finishes with “cool” to seal the track. Kel Adore is an LA based artist with an electro-indie pop sound that aims to “feed your soul with music”. She made it on Spotify’s “Viral Hits” and “Hit Italiene” editorial playlists, and released several influential singles in 2024.

- Review: "Care Too Much" - Kiya Christine
It’s easy to get caught up with an ex who has long since gotten over your breakup. But is it really fair to call your overprotectiveness over them “jealousy”? Bold, fun, and honest, “Care Too Much” is Kiya Christine’s debut single that features everything you’d ever want from a confessional pop song. Capturing the inner dialogue of a girl who’s still hung up on an ex who’s already over their relationship, Kiya brings the self-awareness and sass to a track that is lighthearted and bright. This song is going to be perfect for those of you who love the musical storytelling styles of Sabrina Carpenter and Tate McRae, keeping it real while the melody flows. Kiya’s “Care Too Much” is so much fun to listen to. The hooks are exactly their namesake– these electropop melodies are going to get so caught in your head that you’ll be humming them when you least expect it. I really love how light the song feels and sounds– the content in it may be about a breakup and the subsequent jealousy that comes from it, but the lyrics’ self-awareness keeps everything so honest that it’s almost impossible to not smile while you’re listening to it. Combining all of that with the fantastically-written chorus makes for a song that is just begging you to sing along with it. I especially love the line “Don’t call me jealous / Just call it overprotective”; there’s a sense of justification that follows it, giving the narrator a reason to keep her eye on her ex. Like the title says, she just cares too much to let go. If you’ve similarly been hung up on an ex, then you’ll love the relatability “Care Too Much” delivers in catchy hooks and dynamic lyricism. Hailing from Boise, Idaho is Kiya Christine is a Los Angeles-based artist whose career began at the age of 9. Although she began as a studio dancer, she has since come into the music industry as of 2024, a year spent writing music while continuing her training in dancing, guitar playing, and singing. With sounds similar to Sabrina Carpenter and Tate McRae, Kiya’s journey as a solo artist is sure to be an exciting one. Her debut single “Care Too Much” debuted this year, and was penned when Kiya was 14. She currently has two other singles under her belt, titled “promise” and “Two of Me”. If you loved “Care Too Much”, you should definitely give her other tracks a listen. And don’t forget to drop her a follow to keep up with whatever she’s got in store for us next!

- Review: "Refined Believer" - OSKA
On OSKA's latest album, the title track, "Refined Believer", is a deeply personal song with honest lyrics that are a breath of fresh air. The song conveys love and connections in a realistic, relatable way. While falling in love is an exciting, beautiful, and fun experience, its not always perfect once you remove the rose-colored lenses. OSKA shows all the complexities of falling in love with lyrics such as "Starting the fight, then starting to cry. But all my sadness subsides, when your smile lights up the sky." Falling in love is not always easy and relationships are not linear. Experiencing a few bumps in the road while falling in love is normal. Despite the potential hardships, love is still a beautiful thing. Even with the pain it can bring, strong feelings of love can form equally strong ties of loyalty. The loyalty can be so strong it leans more into devotion for that person you love. "Refined Believer" portrays the true nature of falling in love with all its ups and downs that you may push through, even if it can cause emotional pain. From the very moment the song starts and OSKA's vocals hit your ears, you are immediately reeled into a heartbreakingly intimate setting. OSKA's voice is full of raw honesty. Each lyric sounds like a personal confession typically saved for whispers between the shadows of a quiet night. OSKA has a powerful, emotion-laden tone. It makes it feel as if you are being personally comforted or serenaded. OSKA's vocal tone has a unique quality that fills listeners with emotions and keeps them hooked on every lyric and note. The impactful yet soft and airy sound of OSKA's voice is reminiscent of singer-songwriters like Billie Marten and Jade Bird . Throughout "Refined Believer", the consistent, soft strums of a guitar backs OSKA's clear, almost fairy-like voice which adds to the overall serene, emotional vibe of the song. Near the end of the song, the music builds for a moment with the repetition of the lyric "It's gonna take all my life", creating an ethereal sound as the song draws to a close. Viennese indie-pop singer-songwriter OSKA was born into a family of talented singers and musicians, which led to her discovering her voice from a young age. OSKA was raised in a small village in Lower Austria until she moved to Vienna to pursue her love and passion for music at the age of 18. While in Vienna, OSKA began busking throughout the city’s streets and squares. After years spent honing her voice and featuring for different artists, OSKA released "Distant Universe" in 2020, and soon after, signed to Nettwerk Music Group. The following year, OSKA released her debut EP, "Honeymoon Phase," which received critical acclaim and industry recognition, including awards like the XA Music Export Award at the 2020 Waves Vienna Showcase Festival and an Amadeus Austrian Music Award in 2022. OSKA also joined singer Tom Odell on his European tour, and in addition to that, played at the Eurosonic Showcase Festival in 2023, where she won the Music Moves Europe Talent Award - an award previously given to talented artists like Rosalía, Dua Lipa, Hozier, and Adele. OSKA's sophomore album "Refined Believer" was recently released on June 20th, which is described as "her most personal to date". OSKA is currently playing at multiple concerts in various cities throughout Germany and Austria, and tickets can be found here !
