Prompting a little musical playfulness
What follows are just three examples from an experiment exploring personalized music production. Essentially, the intention was to familiarize myself with prompting available technologies to get a feel for how to express my musical ideas. Patience, playfulness and an ear that’s in sync with one’s personal taste seems to be doing the trick.
Worth mentioning: I didn’t feel like writing lyrics for this project, but I made some contributions. Also, don’t mind the correctness. The “writing team” agreed on some (grammatical) nonsense to make it flow and rhyme. Besides, the objective was to have fun. Mine, that is. My gen A.I. based companions didn’t seem to care. In short, this isn’t supposed to be a replacement for your school’s English textbook.
Finally, I made some minor tweaks to the music (mainly responsible for the little imperfections you might hear) with the help of audacity.

Yo, it’s time to spit this veggie game
I ain’t about that meat, I got no shame
I roll up to the scene, with my plate so clean
My food choices, always on point and serene
I’m a vegetarian, and I’m proud to be
Even though I might look like a scrawny tree
I’ll never touch a burger or a juicy steak
But I’ll stuff my face with kale and carrot cake
My friends all laugh and call me names
They say I’m missing out on all the gains
But I don’t care, I’ll stick to my greens
While they’re clogging their arteries with pork and beans
I might get dizzy when I stand up too quick
But that’s just because my iron levels are sick
I’ll pop a supplement and I’ll be just fine
While they’re all suffering from gout and swine
I know I might seem like a weirdo or a freak
But I’m just trying to live my life at my peak
I’ll never be a bodybuilder or a sex machine
But I’ll be the healthiest guy all over the scene
So go ahead and call me names
Which only ignites my veggie flames
‘Cause bitchin’ about my salad plate
Won’t add anything to my featherweight
I’m a vegetarian, and I’m proud to be
Even though I might look like a scrawny tree
I’ll never touch a burger or a juicy steak
But I’ll stuff my face with kale and carrot cake
