50 Cent Leans Into AI With Retro Remakes, Vows to Rework His Unreleased Songs

The move tests how far AI reinterpretations can go before authenticity concerns overshadow the novelty.

Overview

  • 50 Cent posted AI-made 1960s soul versions of “21 Questions” and “God Gave Me Style” on Instagram this week.
  • He told fans he will apply AI to all of his unreleased songs to see what material he can bring forward.
  • Timbaland reacted positively in the comments, aligning with his own AI initiatives including Stage Zero and the AI artist TaTa.
  • Reaction from listeners ranged from praise for 50 Cent’s songwriting to unease about AI’s role in music.
  • Interest in these remakes follows a viral fan-made 1960s take on “Many Men” that Joe Rogan lauded on his podcast, as wider concerns about synthetic media persist.
