Exclusive! Asha Bhosle: AI could stifle emerging talent in music
Many musicians have voiced concerns over how reel culture has reduced music to bite-sized, attention-grabbing clips, often overshadowing the depth and artistry of compositions.
However, legendary singer
Asha Bhosle
embraces the trend with optimism and appreciates how it is introducing classic and new music to younger audiences.
'Music has now evolved into simple melodies'
Asha Bhosle, who was recently seen in a new music video with A Band of Boys, says, 'I think music transcends generations. Youngsters who are creating new viral music for reels and trends have their place in today's time. Music has now evolved into simple melodies, which are easy to sing and hum.
You cannot judge if this is good or bad. This is the music of the future, and there's nothing wrong with it.'
'
AI could stifle emerging talent and creativity in music'
Sharing her views on how AI can hamper the creative spark in musicians, she says, 'With AI mimicking voices becoming so rampant, the upcoming singers will be affected. They will not get a break in the industry because AI will be imitating the voices of stalwarts. AI could stifle emerging talent and creativity in music, which might make the music industry a cloning business - rehashing styles and voices that already exist.

It may stifle the unique creative spark that modern and new musicians and singers bring to the world of music. Personally, I feel that AI voices lack the emotional depth and warmth that a human voice can convey. Who knows what the future holds?'

Is K-pop's Dream Fading at Home? Data Reveals Why Korean Youth Are Losing Interest
After Global Hype, Domestic Cooldown: What the Numbers Say While K-pop continues to dominate worldwide stages, signs of domestic fatigue are becoming clear in Korea's home market. According to the Circle Chart 2025 Mid-Year Report, consumption of K-pop's top 400 digital tracks dropped by 6.4% compared to last year, and by a staggering 49.7% since 2019-the peak year. Physical album sales, a vital indicator of fan dedication, also fell by 9% year-on-year, reaching 42.4 million units sold, down from 46.7 million in 2024. Albums crossing the 1 million sales mark fell from 9 to 7, while no album surpassed 3 million copies this year, unlike last year when Seventeen notably achieved this feat. These figures are reinforced by data from the Korea Music Content Association and Circle Chart, highlighting a clear domestic slowdown. Dwindling Rookie Girl Groups: Where's the Fresh Spark Gone? Previously, rookie girl groups injected energy and buzz into the K-pop scene, often dominating the charts. However, the 2025 mid-year data shows a stark drop in new group appearances. Only aespa, Ive, and NewJeans secured spots in the top 10 girl groups, compared to five in 2024. Data analyst Kim Jin-woo of Circle Chart explains, "The rookie girl group presence sharply declined. The shift toward English-heavy songs and similar-sounding beats to appeal globally has dulled the unique appeal that domestic audiences cherished." by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like This Japanese AI invention allows you to speak 68 languages instantly. The idea? Genius. Enence 2.0 Undo This trend reflects labels prioritizing international recognition, although it risks disengaging core local fans. Solo Artists Rising: Changing the K-pop Landscape Another significant trend is the rise of solo artists dominating charts traditionally ruled by groups. In the current top 10 digital rankings, 7 are solo performers, including Woodz ("Drowning"), Hwang Garam ("I Am a Firefly"), and Jo Jazz ("Don't You Know"). These soloists may lack massive global tours but connect deeply with domestic listeners. Music critic Lim Hee-yun notes, "Fans increasingly seek authenticity, relatable content, and direct communication, which solo artists deliver effectively through social media." This shift indicates a change from fanclub-driven group mania to more individualistic music consumption. Shifting Fan Culture: What's Behind the Domestic Decline? Why is Korean youth losing enthusiasm for K-pop? Experts point to concept repetition, a surge in English lyrics, and a saturated market with fewer standout newcomers as key reasons. These factors contribute to declining concert attendance, lower merchandise sales, and shrinking hardcore fandoms. Nonetheless, the industry remains optimistic due to K-pop's growing global footprint, especially in North America, Europe, and Southeast Asia. However, sustaining strong domestic support remains crucial for long-term stability.
