Drake<\/strong> and The Weeknd<\/strong> already don’t rock with the Grammys, so the possibility of their unauthorized AI collaboration winning an award likely won’t mend any fences.<\/p>\n

Still, that’s the scenario Recording Academy CEO Harvey Mason Jr.<\/strong> is floating when it comes to the controversial “Heart on My Sleeve” — the AI-generated track that surfaced in April featuring faux vocals from the Canadian megastars, but convincing enough to be a hit.<\/p>\n

Ghostwriter, the anonymous creator behind the track, submitted the shadowy track for both Song of The Year and Best Rap Song for the 66th Grammy Awards next year.<\/p>\n

Mason tells the New York Times<\/strong> he was impressed with “Heart on My Sleeve” as it opened up possibilities for their business and declared it suitable for nomination … “As far as the creative side, it’s absolutely eligible because it was written by a human.”<\/p>\n

If Ghostwriter earned just a nomination, it could spearhead the next evolution of artists: songwriters who use other people’s artificially-generated voices!<\/p>\n

Drake and Weeknd’s record label Universal Music Group didn’t share Mason’s enthusiasm when the track was released, and, in fact, had it pulled from DSPs<\/strong> … leaving it to lurk in the internet’s dark recesses. The Grammy development offers the song a new light.<\/p>\n

The Weeknd and Drake have been boycotting<\/strong> the Grammys for years, going as far as to withdraw nominations and refuse to submit heir own music.<\/p>\n

On the other hand, Ghostwriter isn’t letting up off the digital dash in the wake of his new career strides.<\/p>\n

He released a new AI concoction Wednesday titled “Whiplash,” featuring CPU-generated soundalikes for Travis Scott<\/strong> and 21 Savage<\/strong> — 2 more artists to piss off, but also another possible path to the Grammys!!!<\/p>\n
