Suno Spark feels like bullshit. Change my mind.

I’m calling bullshit on this.

I spent real time on my application. I use Suno every day. I’ve built multiple AI artists, entire albums, characters, brands, and communities around AI music. I’ve spent the last few months in multiple professional recording studios in Los Angeles working on a debut artist. In those rooms, I met producers, writers, and artists who are already using Suno in some part of their workflow—even if they don’t always talk about it publicly.

I thought that’s exactly the kind of creator this program was looking for.

Instead, I got a rejection email within about 12 hours.

Another creator I know applied and got the same thing.

Meanwhile, Suno just raised $400 million, says it wants to build the future of creator partnerships, and then sends everyone a free month of Premier as a consolation prize.

If the program filled before most applications could realistically be reviewed, just say that.

If you already had your ambassadors picked, just say that.

If this was mostly a marketing campaign to generate buzz and collect applications, just say that.

I’m not upset because I wasn’t picked. Nobody is entitled to be accepted.

I’m frustrated because transparency matters.

Did anyone here actually get accepted?

Did anyone have a conversation with a real person?

Did anyone get interviewed?

Or was this just a numbers game?

I still think Suno is the best AI music platform available. That’s exactly why this is disappointing. I wanted to help build the community, not just use the product.

If I’m missing something, I’d genuinely like to hear it.

This showed up today and I honestly don’t know if it’s music, performance art, or a giant middle finger to the music industry.

AI PROPHETS

THE CHARACTER DIED SO THE MAN COULD LIVE

Tracklist:

1. The Character Died So The Man Could Live
2. The Character Survives (Helicopter Version)
3. The Character Won’t Die Unless You Kill It First
4. Water Is Above and Water Is Below (Executive Order 4318)

If you’ve been following everything around Oliver Tree over the last few weeks, these titles are… interesting.

Especially after his Antarctica documentary where he repeatedly talks about:

• labels manufacturing artists,
• characters versus real people,
• not needing permission to create,
• and the line:

“They’ll never understand until I’m dead.”

Then there’s the fake record label segment where they literally say:

“We created Oliver Tree… and we could destroy him at any given moment.”

And his parents telling him:

“You can reinvent yourself. You are so good at that. Have a new character.”

Now someone drops an album called The Character Died So The Man Could Live with songs titled The Character Survives (Helicopter Version) and The Character Won’t Die Unless You Kill It First.

Maybe it’s just art.

Maybe it’s social commentary.

Maybe it’s talking about every artist who’s ever had to kill the version of themselves the industry wanted so they could become themselves again.

Either way…

This is one of the boldest concepts I’ve seen in a long time.

If you’ve listened already, I’m curious what you think this album is actually trying to say.

ENJOY
