Hey listeners, Lenny Vaughn here, spinning the raw truth from vinyl's golden era into today's digital chaos. In the last 24 hours, SZA dropped a bombshell in i-D magazine, declaring AI in music feels like being at war—especially for Black artists, as it spits out unauthorized covers and stereotypical tracks that steal streams without a dime back to creators. She rails against the anti-intellectual shortcuts, insisting no machine can touch the soul of human emotion, and calls out AI's massive energy drain too.
Over in K-pop, February's firestorm of releases is still buzzing via K-Ville Entertainment's roundup: BLACKPINK's GO, IVE's BANG BANG and BLACKHOLE, ATEEZ's Adrenaline and NASA, ENHYPEN's Big Girls Don’t Cry and Stealer, plus WOODZ's CINEMA and NMIXX ft.
