Kid Rock explores AI-generated music and whether it could work for his songs. He thinks live shows will stay the main money for artists, but suggests splitting revenue if AI versions get performed. He's challenging listeners to create AI Kid Rock songs and submit them.
What'd you think of our song that we made? I thought it was average. You might want to stick in the tech lane. Obviously tech and entertainment are colliding. I was just curious if you mess around with AI, what you think about it. The songwriters, I have, you know, a special place in my heart for them. Like, I don't know how it works out for them. Like, there might have to be some legislation there or whatnot, and maybe for artists too. I'm not against it, but I don't think we need to be unreasonable about something that we can't stop. I mean, my attitude personally is like, if 100,000 If 100,000 people want to be out there writing songs with my intellectual property, whatever, my voice, go for it.
Yeah.
I hope somebody nails one.
Yeah.
If you nail one, I'll give you a piece of it because I get to go sing that live and we make the majority of our money live at the gate. Yeah. Now what's going to happen? There's going to be the other half of the country that are writing songs like, you know, Kid Rock wants to blow Joe Biden, you know, stuff like that, which, hey, I'll laugh at that too. There'll probably be some funny stuff there. I love that one, man. Yeah, right?
What's that you say, Kid Rock?
Challenge accepted.
Yeah! I'm not actually Kid Rock, but you heard what the man said. Make a version of a Kid Rock song with AI and leave a link to it in the comments. We'll send the best version to Mr. Rock. Make America proud.
And now back to our program.
It's another tool.
