Boi-1da’s A.I. Powered EP Officially Drops
The What: BACARDÍ and Boi-1da have dropped "The Concept A.I.bum," a five-track EP produced using generative A.I. trained on Boi-1da's award-winning catalog. The EP, an outcome of BACARDÍ's Music Liberates Music initiative, aims to promote emerging artists while showcasing innovative music-making strategies.
Tell Me More: The EP features the tracks "Something to Prove" by Bellah, "Apollonia" by Floyd Fuji, "All You Wanted" by Kyle Dion, "Ebony" by Blackway, and "Hall of Fame" by Savannah Ré. Boi-1da, thrilled by the collaborative possibilities, praises the utilization of AI to merge his signature style with the artists' individual talents. BACARDÍ's Global Head of Brand Marketing underscores the positive application of AI in nurturing emerging talent while maintaining artistic integrity.
Say Word: This AI-infused music production raises concerns about copyright, ownership, and creative control. However, some experts believe early engagement with AI could grant artists more control over their work, while others question whether AI can replicate artists' true talent or merely create computer-generated cover songs.
Final Verdict: We’re calling this experiment a success. The 5-track EP delivers a sound that closely represents what we’ve come to know Boi-1da for. Each artist was able to complement the production, making this a truly enjoyable listen. 🔥 — Click below to play the EP.

Apple Rewarding Musicians for Embracing High-End Audio Format
Apple plans to incentivize artists and music labels to use Dolby Atmos technology in their music by offering increased weighting to streams of songs mixed in this high-end audio format, sources revealed. This strategic move is aimed at encouraging the adoption of spatial audio, which surrounds listeners in sound. The incentive program, set to commence next year, is anticipated to boost royalties for artists who embrace the technology.
Apple's decision means artists and labels will benefit from merely offering songs in Atmos format, potentially prompting more extensive adoption and reimagining of both new and older tracks. This push towards spatial audio, considered affordable for music mixing, could drive consumer interest in Apple's audio hardware, such as AirPods and HomePod, as the music library expands with this immersive format. Amazon offers a similar technology in its Music app, while Spotify currently does not support the Dolby Atmos format.
