Sam Nadler [13:34]: Now I was just curious. In the prompt, can you reference, specific artists like Taylor Swift or Snoop Dogg or something like that?
Jordan Metzner [13:41]: That's a great question. So in Suno, you're actually not allowed to reference artists, and they do that, like, to protect the artists, I guess. But, where you can reference artists is in ChatGPT. And so what I have found is, using ChatGPT to make songs has been a really awesome way. So what I'll do here is go to ChatGPT and say, like, write me a prompt and lyrics for, Suno 4.5.

And then you can click here create. And in just a few moments, Suno will start creating a classical music song, an epic one in the silence of the morning. And in fact, they've added a bunch of new features as well. But I think what will also be cool is to take the same lyrics and just okay. Make this a trap country song. Just give me a new prompt. And so I think what'll be interesting is here we can listen. One
