Is RYTMZ's country song AI? Fans ask, and the Juice Unlocked podcast weighs in

The first clip is from the Juice Unlocked podcast set, with the show's neon signs behind two hosts at the mic. A headline graphic reads "Foos are questioning if rapper, RYTMZ used AI to start making country music for him!?" over a photo of RYTMZ in a black cowboy hat and an AI headphones graphic. One host asks whether the track is AI, and the other says he respects RYTMZ for making the effort. The second clip shows a tattooed man who appears to be RYTMZ in a black cowboy hat outdoors, with a song playing; it appears to be the track itself, so the lyrics are not quoted.

Rapper RYTMZ put out a country song, and the internet had questions. A post shared by Foo Community and Juice Unlocked on Sept. 30, 2026, asked followers whether his country music was AI-generated.

The question came up on the Juice Unlocked podcast set. One host said he had seen the debate in the comments on Foo Community, where an A&R brought up the AI music platform Suno.

What the hosts said

The first host laid out the case: RYTMZ was known as a rapper, and now he had a country song. He described the worry that using AI to make music would "take the soul away," then asked his co-host whether he thought the track was AI.

His co-host said he wasn't knocking it. He gave RYTMZ credit for dressing the part and making the effort, and said he was nobody to tell another artist how to get their motion.

“I'm saying he's making the effort to go the country route, you feel me.”

Why fans are asking

AI country music was already on the charts. In November 2025, "Walk My Walk," an AI-powered song credited to the mystery act Breaking Rust, topped Billboard's country digital sales chart, FOX 5 DC reported.

Suno, the platform named in the comments, is an AI-powered song creation service. Record labels sued Suno and rival Udio in 2024, alleging the companies copied hundreds of songs. Warner Music Group settled its case with Suno in November 2025, in a deal that lets Suno launch licensed AI models, Reuters reported.

The post did not show any evidence either way about how RYTMZ's music was made.

“I'm nobody to tell somebody how they should, you know what I'm saying, get their motion. You feel me? So hey, if it's working for him, salute.”
