An AI-generated song titled 'In Love With a Talahon' has become the third most viral track on Spotify. Created by Josua Waghubinger using the AI music generator Udio, the song features derogatory language and immigrant stereotypes, drawing significant media attention in Germany. The lyrics describe a romanticized view of a young man with a migrant background, which has raised concerns about xenophobia and racism.

Despite a lawsuit from the RIAA against Udio for copyright violations, the technology continues to empower artists like Waghubinger to create music that can quickly gain traction on social media. This situation underscores the ongoing conflict between AI tools and established music industry norms, particularly as platforms like TikTok introduce new AI capabilities.
