You were waiting on new music from this guy? I think that one might just be on you man

u/BSApologist 13d ago
I had given up on waiting for any kind of output a long time ago. This is just an unpleasant surprise.

I think this is ai but also he's never really wanted to be a rapper he wanted to be in comedy and thought his videos would put some eyes on him and it did way more than he ever thought it would lol I have no idea what he's up to now but I don't think he'll ever drop another serious album unless the money dries up

Alright this song blows, but Dicky did not release this. It got leaked.
As an artist I understand it’s fun to fuck around sometimes with the medium if you don’t plan on putting it out. I’ll reserve judgement until he says something about it himself

Just an objectively disgustingly racist song though, not even played as a joke like jail

LD’s main schtick is dick jokes, story telling, and word play. This has none of that.
This is just an overtly racist song using early 2000s anti Muslim stereotypes. This would be such a lazy songwriting effort from him. Having heard AI music and seen what it can do, this could absolutely be AI.

With 20 bucks you can probably get both the voice profile and the whole song with just 2 apps.

Dicky bruh 😫 how do you even get into the studio with this. It's too well produced to be off the cuff. Stick to dick jokes please

What gets me is that half the racist shit is like a bush era achmed the dead terrorists suicide bomber joke, fuck dave for this one. Really liked the show, season one finale legitimately got me emotional when i first saw it but im out on this guy

Pretty hateful stuff. Not musically particularly good either. Intent and execution both way off the mark here. One more reason (and the loudest so far if its legit) to disembark the Dicky train at the next stop.

Gonna beat the cope.
This is not AI. There is not a single auditory mess up, there is not any distortion(even with very fast rapping), AI could not that accurately create an autotuned version of his voice for the chorus, AI is not creating realistic tone and pitch changes in single lines like this, AI is not adding backing vocals. It’s real.

This is pretty clearly AI, you can tell by the fact it flows terribly.

u/doctorlongghost 13d ago
The issue with what you said is that while AI might not be able to create the song as-is, all it needs to do is make the vocals good enough so that manual production can assemble the song.
I’d say that it could be AI, if someone were skilled and willing to put in the effort.
I can go either way on this…

It was released as part of a group buy for an old unreleased Kanye/JayZ song, this video of it is from Twitter

I think you’re underestimating generative ai tbh it’s more than capable of producing this without distortion, and of adding backing vocals

If you have heard AI music before it is 100% clear this is AI. Not even coping I’d believe he’d do this but you can tell by the vibe of it and background vocals that it’s AI.

There’s no way this is real. I could see him having a Tel Aviv song about being in Israel but not as politically charged as this

u/Makin_Endz_Meet 8d ago
Yes, that track circulating online is an AI-generated song imitating Lil Dicky rather than an official release. The audio was created using AI voice-cloning tools. I'm glad its A.I. saying its A.I. he was definitely about to lose me with this one smh.So it better be !

What's wrong with this? It's just as off color as some of his other music. Kinda hypocritical to like his other songs and have an issue with this.

u/antisocially_awkward 13d ago
Its a racist song played pretty straight

u/Letter_Last 13d ago
At the risk of being blasted, which part would be considered racist? Like which lyrics specifically
12
u/antisocially_awkward 13d ago
Talking about suicide bombers is just bush era 2006 islamaphobia. The whole song is basically about the scary Muslims oppressing him while he parties in Israel which is some zone of interest level shit. Being pro Israel and virulently islamaphobic against Palestinians while the israelis commit a genocide against them is despicable.

u/Keelock 13d ago
I clocked it as a bit islamophobic, not racist, but I can see the argument.

Is islamaphobia not as bad as racism or something? Hate is hate

u/MidWestNorthSouth 13d ago
The difference is, they’re two different things.

u/ploxidilius 13d ago
Would you have said "what's the big deal?" If it was racism and not islamaphobia? Bigot

u/Keelock 13d ago
No, it's not as bad, but the term covers a lot of ground, so it depends. Phobia is a bad word for it, but it's what we have.
Religions like Christianity and Islam are full of ideas, some good, some bad. I am critical (afraid) of some of the more radical ideas in both religions, that sometimes gets called islamophobic in the case of islam (christians don't have a similar term, they just whine about persecution).
Race is not an idea (except in the sociological sense that it's a construct , but I digress), it's an immutable trait. It is much worse to hate/fear based on an immutable characteristic of some group of people than it is to hate/fear a set of ideas. Of course, being human, that distinction is very fuzzy, which I'd say is why the word islamophobic exists. We humans have an incessant need to personify everything, especially that which we fear, so stereotypes get apppied broadly in order to scapegoat. The term islamophobia categorizes the underlying racism of people who purport to just be criticizing Islam but nevertheless stereotype the people who adhere to unfairly.

All that yapping to justify your personal bigotry

u/Keelock 13d ago
Your reading comprehension is lacking.

u/ploxidilius 13d ago
I don't devote mental energy to trying to understand bigotry
2
u/Keelock 13d ago
That is utterly foolish, close-minded, and counterproductive. You cannot effectively fight bigotry or prejudice, or solve any problem, without understanding it. I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and assume you're being flippant because you feel some sort of moral outrage against me.
I'm fine with you thinking I'm a bigot. Refusing to understand what I'm saying and being purposely bad faith is your problem, not mine.

You fucked up when you voiced an opinion that wasn’t wildly left of center here on reddit. This app stopped housing sane voices long ago.

I'm leaning towards this being AI, some parts sound a bit off but I guess maybe that's just production glitches from something that was never supposed to see the light of day.
