Just recently, the Alfredo rapper showed his dislike for rappers who use AI tools to write their music. “Look at AI rap now man. I don’t even believe nobody that write,” he said. “I don’t even believe if you even really make it anymore cause I done been in studios with motherf–kers and mutherf–kers is ChatGPT sh-t and I’m like, ‘What in the f–k?’ Like damn, how long am I gonna be able to do this sh-t? Cause I’m actually making fresh sh-t.”
He added: “How long am I going to be able to do it when there’s motherf–kers in the studio typing into a computer to get their music? We in a lazy day and age, man. Heart is dying and you got to ask a computer to write your lyrics, sh-t is wack.”
