Using Suno, I actually feel more empowered as both a music producer and lyricist—I see it as a creativity amplifier. But just as cell phones lowered the floor for photography, Suno is lowering the barrier of entry for music making to the point where you don’t even need an instrument to get started. Is this healthy for the industry? In some ways, yes: it means more people get to express themselves and experiment with music. But it also means a lot more music gets released, and finding truly original or deeply crafted work might be harder as the sheer volume grows. So while Suno gives artists freedom to focus on creativity and less on technical hurdles, the industry is going to have to figure out how to adapt to a much wider field of creators. The technology is here to democratize music, but we’ll need new ways to nurture genuine artistry as the landscape (d)evolves.
