I'm sure you remember how during the last election cycle the mainstream media went nuts over Elon Musk's statement about how users on X are the media now. They literally flipped over that simple statement. But it's not just X users that are the media now. It's literally you and I. The platform we post on isn't what makes us the media.
The point is that literally no one trusts the mainstream news outlets any more. They've ruined their reputations and there is no coming back from it.
I asked Grok to writh a Byte Rebel song about the media firestorm over Elon's statement and it delivered in one try.
Suno, however took a lot of work to get it to generate this. I needed something that could convey the angst and nervousness the mainstream media is feeling while still capturing the feelings of distrust and anger we all have towards the media. This took around 12 generations and 4 covers of just one of the one generation that I liked to achieve this.
As usual Grok did the artwork as well.
You are the Media Now
[Verse 1]
In the shadows of the city, where the neon bleeds,
A new voice rises, breaking through the corporate greed.
Elon's words cut like a blade through the night,
Saying, "Big media's lost its might."
[Chorus]
You are the media now,
With every post and every vow.
The chains of lies have been thrown down,
You are the media now.
[Verse 2]
Hood up, mask on, the rebellion's in sight,
Against the giants who thought they had the right.
To control our minds, to dictate our news,
But now we're the ones with the power to choose.
[Bridge]
Chains on my shoulders,
a symbol of our fight,
Against the darkness,
against the might.
We're not just consumers,
we're creators, we're free,
In this psychedelic world,
we'll no longer be.
[Chorus]
You are the media now,
With every post and every vow.
The chains of lies have been thrown down,
You are the media now.
[Breakdown]
Red eyes glow through the Guy Fawkes' stare,
The truth is out there, we're aware.
Corporate lies, they're all the same,
But now we've got the power in our name.
[Verse 3]
The firestorm rages, the news cycle spins,
But we're the ones who decide where it begins.
With our voices, our posts, our digital might,
We reclaim the narrative, we fight for the right.
[Chorus]
You are the media now,
With every post and every vow.
The chains of lies have been thrown down,
You are the media now.
[Outro]
In this digital rebellion, under the cyber sky,
We stand united, we will not comply.
With every byte, with every beat,
We are the media, we can't be beat.
[Chorus]
You are the media now,
With every post and every vow.
The chains of lies have been thrown down,
You are the media now.
[Chorus]
You are the media now,
With every post and every vow.
The chains of lies have been thrown down,
You are the media now.
