Just tried out Spotify's new AI DJ feature. It started out pretty well.. I like the idea of the Ice-T sounding AI guy coming in to have a little chat and shuffle the music around. It first played 3 tracks from artists I like.. then he comes back and says "Now I'll mix things up with some of the latest hits" and starts playing fuckin Salena Gomez, Taylor Swift and some Ed Sheeran sounding guy I've never heard of. NOPE.
Also, out of curiosity I let the Taylor Swift song play for a bit because I hadn't heard any of her songs since Shake It Off and wanted to see what the big deal was. It was a song called Cruel Summer and it was some of the most generic pop ever. I'm not going to sit here and judge her whole catalogue off 45 seconds of 1 song though but if it's more like that, I'm not missing out on much.
I do an Elaine Benes. NEXT
