The Recording Academy CEO, Harvey Mason Jr., recently clarified misconceptions regarding the eligibility of an AI-generated Drake song for a Grammy Award nomination. He stated that the track is not eligible for consideration due to the vocals not being legally obtained and the song not being commercially available. In order for a track to be eligible for a Grammy Award nomination, it must meet certain requirements. Most importantly, the part up for nomination must have been created by a human. Mason Jr. also stressed that the Academy is here to protect and represent human artists and creators. In addition to the human element, the track must also be commercially available on major streaming platforms such as Spotify and Apple Music. The track in question was removed from platforms due to copyright violations and lack of approval from the artist and label. Universal Music Group (UMG) and Google recently announced a collaboration to combat AI deep fakes. The two are in negotiations for licensing melodies and vocal tracks for use in AI-generated music.
