Deezer Just Rolled Out the World’s First AI Music Tagging System

Big news in the world of streaming: Deezer has become the first platform to clearly label albums that include fully AI-generated tracks. If you’ve been wondering how to tell the difference between human-created music and AI content, this is a game changer.

We have recently launched a powerful AI detection tool, and the results are wild—about 18% of music uploaded each day (over 20,000 tracks!) is now fully AI-generated. While most of these tracks don’t go viral, Deezer found that around 70% of their streams are fake, often uploaded to exploit royalty systems.

To fight back, we are taking a bold step:

AI-generated tracks are now clearly tagged so listeners know what they’re hearing.
These tracks won’t show up in editorial playlists or algorithm-based recommendations.
And most importantly, fraudulent streams are being filtered out of royalty payments.

For now, AI-only songs make up just 0.5% of all streams on Deezer, but the trend is growing fast, and with this new tagging system, Deezer is setting a precedent for how streaming platforms can handle the rise of AI music responsibly.

What do you think? Should other platforms keep it real and tag AI music too?

2) AI-generated content” is not added into album page of singles. For example Enlly Blue - Through my soul.
I highly suggest you to have a look at that. I don’t wanna see any AI content on my subscription. You may add that option into DEEZER setup settings, for example “exclude AI generated content, that would be fantastic improvement. This will enable the customers to choose whatever we want during the set-up.

I just checked that artist in the desktop app, and all of her releases (albums, EPs and singles) are marked as AI-generated except that one single in your screenshot. So I guess this somehow slipped through when checking with Deezer’s software which should not happen of course:
