AI musician Xania Monet reportedly signed a multi-million dollar record deal
Xania Monet, an artificial intelligence (AI) created musician, has reportedly signed a multimillion-dollar recording deal.
Bidding for the AI artist reportedly escalated to as much as $3 million. The deal was eventually closed by Hallwood Media, led by former Interscope executive Neil Jacobson. The publication reports that the contract is valued in the multimillion-dollar range.
Monet is the creation of Mississippi poet and designer, Talisha Jones, who used the generative platform Suno to transform her own poetry into songs. She even developed the persona of Monet, which quickly drew interest from record labels.
Monet’s rise has already been successful, with the promise of commercial success. Her tracks have reached the Billboard charts, and she has built a digital audience of roughly 465,000 monthly listeners on Spotify. Last week, Monet’s song “How Was I Supposed to Know” climbed to first position on R&B Digital Song Sales.
Manager Romel Murphy, who represents both Jones and her AI project, emphasized that her lyrics are authentic. According to him, approximately 90% of the lyrics are written from Jones’s own life, while the remaining 10% is inspired by friends and community. He explained, “It’s just the lyrics, and they are pure. That’s what’s catching.” (via Billboard)
Murphy also defended the AI project. “This is real music — it’s real R&B. There’s an artist behind it,” he told Billboard. He further confirmed that plans are in motion for Monet’s debut live performance and that discussions are underway about publishing opportunities for her catalog.
