Deezer: More Than Half Of The Newly Added Music Is Artificially Generated

Over 50% of all music released on Deezer (more than 90,000 songs a day) are AI-generated. Last year it was only 10%, or 10,000 songs a day; an 9x increase in 18 months.

Over 50% of all music released on Deezer (more than 90,000 songs a day) are AI-generated. Last year it was only 10,000 songs a day and 10%; an 9x increase in 18 months. Deezer can recognise tracks made by Suno and Udio, has been tagging these since 2025 and has now made this available to Spotify and Apple Music.

This is the first time we have seen a concrete threshold crossed; more than half of all new releases on a major streaming service are now being produced by a non-human. By the end of 2027, the phrase ‘music industry’ will become redundant.
