LA rapper Fenix Flexin has acknowledged using the AI music generator Treblo to create his 80s synth-pop song 'Rubberz,' claiming he was unaware of the tool until the mixing stage. The admission comes after producer Medasin publicly identified the AI tool's involvement and Treblo released a detector confirming the track's AI origin, joining other artists like Tyga in embracing generative music technology.
Why it matters: As AI music generation becomes increasingly sophisticated and commercially viable, high-profile artists openly using these tools signals a potential shift in how music is produced and what disclosure standards the industry will adopt.
