Examining Why
What leads someone to want to become an AI Music Artist?
It’s an interesting question. As a society, have we just become addicted to content creation?
Maybe…or for some maybe there are other reasons.
I didn’t start writing music because I thought I would be great at it. Or come to music through industry connections or lifelong training. I came to it through pain.
Because I didn’t know how else to survive.
The world had chewed me up and spit me out. Divorce. Job loss. Depression. It all piled on faster than I could process. My family was there. The few friends I have were there. I’m grateful for them. But there was a void left behind by my first love loss that no one could fill.
So…
Every night I couldn’t sleep… I wrote.
Every day I couldn’t feel… I wrote.
Every meal I couldn’t eat… I wrote.
It started with poetry. I needed something tangible. I had words I couldn’t say out loud. Words between me and myself. So they poured into journals as I tried to piece myself back together.
At some point, I realized something hard. Those pieces would never form the same person again. No matter how tightly I fit them together, the cracks still show.
But I’m learning to love the new me, cracks and all.
The Power of Access Enables The Modern AI Music Artist
We live in a time when artificial intelligence is expanding creative access. It’s no secret that the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO), in the era of generative AI is having to reshape how intellectual property and creativity intersect.
I think it’s exciting to live in a time where AI can empower people who never thought they would have a voice. That matters. For independent creators, technology removes barriers that once kept stories buried, and allows an ai music artist today to tell stories that would have gone untold.
Manyface isn’t just a name. It’s my truth.
It’s masking as a coping mechanism. And hiding feelings behind a facade. And the exhaustion that comes with carrying that weight. It’s the joyful version of me. The bitter one. The hopeful one. And even the one still healing.
Every song is a mask I take off, or put on, to say something I wasn’t ready to say out loud.
AI helps shape the sound, however, the heart behind this music is human.
More Than Just Music
Truthfully, I don’t know that the person behind the mask is important.
What makes me more deserving of a platform than anyone else who feels unseen?
Nothing.
Manyface isn’t just for me. Sure, this music has helped me survive, but the message behind it – of hope, of not being alone, of the path towards believing in yourself and what you can do… that doesn’t belong to me. This may never go anywhere. And if it doesn’t, I’m okay with that. Because if I can carry a message of hope to someone through even one song or video then that’s enough.
So if you’ve ever felt too deeply but thought it wasn’t enough…
If you’re quiet and unnoticed…
If you’re loud but unheard…
Or if you’re silently breaking…
I see you.
You aren’t alone.
