About this listen
We finally get around to discussing AI-generated music in this episode. And please be warned, we are PISSED. Which is worse: white artists making racist content, or large language models generating imitations of country music? We have plenty of smoke for both culprits. We encourage our listeners to get way more fired up against AI, and to make connections between the violence of imperialism and the cultural theft accelerated by AI. What is authentic country music? What happened to bro country? Who is a real country artist? Who gets to define culture during moments of historic inflection? What, if anything, did we learn from Lil Nas' X's meteoric rise to stardom? And what's radio got to do with it?
