Interesting idea! Not sure about the quality of AI generated songs and performances. Authenticity is much more appealing and effective. Ted Gioia has written about this in his Honest Broker Substack. He also writes a lot about the powers of music.

I am picking up on your challenge, but using more conventional methods. It is an opportunity and focus for my background which is heavily influenced by calypso (my first band was in Barbados).

Composer/songwriter Gabriele Kahane started a tutorial on songwriting here this last week. I will draw from that.

Authenticity is important for both the writer/performer and the subject matter. I read Hillbilly Elegy back when it first came out. I am currently reading the Peter Thiel book. https://howdo.com/book-summaries/zero-to-one-summary-and-review/

Fortunately I am retired and putting songwriting on the front burner is now top of my project list.

I am skeptical as to the effectiveness of Suno to spread

things - for that TikTok and Instagram and YouTube are probably our best bets.

I mentioned Gabriel Kahane earlier and guess what just popped up on IG: https://www.instagram.com/reel/C9xfZV5v-g_/?igsh=MTR2dmVuemdzdTBjYw==
