Inside the Playbook: Chris Anokute on Why Artists Can’t Ignore AI Music Anymore

AI is already changing the music business, and artists can’t afford to ignore it.

In this clip, Chris Anokute breaks down why AI is not a passing trend, how the industry may respond the same way it did with streaming, and why artists need to start paying closer attention to rights, royalties, and how their work could be used in the future.

He also gets into why producers are quietly using tools like Suno, how artists can think about AI as a tool instead of a replacement, and why today’s real battle is not just music creation, it’s attention.

This clip is for artists, managers, producers, and music executives trying to understand AI music, artist rights, royalties, record labels, IP, audience behavior, and the future of the music business.

Simply put, a conversation like this doesn't come cheap.
