We previously spoke with KATSEYE around the release of their second EP Beautiful Chaos, where the group discussed Charli XCX co-writing their song Gabriela.

“One thing that inspires me so much about Charli is she’s so versatile,” member Lara Raj shared. “I recently went on this deep dive of all of her albums and the evolution of Charli XCX. What’s so special about her, whether it’s her artist project or what she’s written [for other artists], you can tell that she’s written it.

“In ‘Gabriela’, there are a lot of melodies where I’m like, ‘Oh my god, she did that. It’s Charli’,” she continued. “She leaves this imprint on everything she does, no matter how different the songs are. I just think that’s so sick. We all think that she’s the sickest person in the world. Excellent artistry and insane amounts of growth, but also very much staying true to herself and what she likes, which we all really want to be like [ourselves].”

Meanwhile, Manon Bannerman announced in February that she would be taking a “temporary hiatus” from the group to focus on her “health and wellbeing”.

In a statement shared through Weverse, the group said that HYBE and Geffen Records “fully support this decision” and that KATSEYE “remains committed to showing up for one another and for the fans who mean everything to us.”

In April, Bannerman later shared that she was “having positive conversations” with both labels during her hiatus.

Dr. Dre explains why he supports AI in music

Dr. Dre has spoken in favour of using artificial intelligence when making music.

The rapper and producer believes there is nothing inherently wrong with bringing AI into the studio, describing it as another "new tool for creativity". He also argued that musicians who oppose the technology might have reacted similarly when drum machines and synthesisers first became part of music production.

Dre told the New York Times: "I had a discussion with a few people a few days ago. They were against AI and I’m like: 'OK, you sound like the person that would have been against the drum machine when it came out'. Or synthesisers, right? It’s a new tool for creativity. Some people are afraid of learning new things.

"I’m embracing it. I can’t wait to see what’s going to happen with this."

He went on to confirm: "Yes, I’m using it. Again, as a tool to see what it would do with what I just did."

Dre also rejected the idea that artificial intelligence poses a danger to creativity in music, explaining: "I think the only people that see it as a threat are the people who have trouble creating.

Jimmy Iovine, Dre’s longtime friend and business partner, also joined the conversation and shared his own enthusiasm for AI in music. He said: "I’m very pro-AI in music creation. I don’t see the downside at all. There will be some c***** music. There’s c***** music now. In the studio, when gifted people have AI, they’re going to make better records."

The two also suggested that a number of music producers are already experimenting with AI behind the scenes without publicly acknowledging it.

Iovine described them as "a lot of closet AI producers out there", while Dre replied: "That’s a good way to put it. They’re using it, they just don’t want to admit it."

Iovine has previously predicted that AI could play a major role in the future of songwriting. Speaking to Consequence of Sound, he said: "I’m not saying it’s good or bad, but I think AI is going to be massive in songwriting on many levels.

"One, on a very basic level, if somebody is stuck and you want to experiment and get an idea. Two, is that not everyone, but too many people today are making records for TikTok."
