AI is the talk of the town these days, and with its ease of use and availability its made its way into nearly every part of our lives. Music not excluded. With this newfound ability to sound like anybody in rap, including some of the all-time greats like Jay-Z, Kendrick Lamar, and Eminem, it's raising a lot of serious questions about its usage and ethicality.
The extent to which aspects of both classic art and contemporary music took on different meanings when paired together amazed me. The withdrawn looks of the subjects became coy and knowing when I wondered what secrets they would reveal “if these walls could talk”, Haim’s defiant anthem of “baby, don’t save me” became the voice of women in French high society, and Nina Simone’s simple lament felt inspired by the Avenue de Chantilly. Where the more traditional music pairings became incidental, the contemporary pieces were in dialogue with the paintings, both resisting and conforming to the tone suggested by the music.
Kendrick Lamar has remained active with his creative agency pgLang, and now they've partnered with the Light company to release a new "anti-smart" phone.
