When AI songs and artists hit their charts, they make no distinction.\n\nSo now we have a fake singer called Arthur Hayes. He has a “group” called Gravel Grace.\n\nTheir “song,” called “Miles to Mercy,” is number 1 on iTunes. It has 68 fake videos on YouTube. Some of them have 300,000 views.\n\nBut it’s all AI, a total fake. If you like it, fine. But you won’t see be seeing Arthur Hayes in concert.\n\nHe doesn’t exist.\n\nSpotify recently said they would start identifying AI songs and artists. But iTunes and You Tube don’t. That’s how “records” by fake artists like Eddie Dalton became iTunes this past spring.\n\nNo mercy for Arthur Hayes, and no grace. Maybe some gravel.\n\nGravel & Grace has nine positions on the iTunes top 100.\n\nAlso on the chart is “Noah Nine” with three fake tracks. That makes 12, if you’re counting.\n\nWhere are they coming from? Stay tuned. They could be from that guy in Greenville, South Carolina called Dallas Ray Little. Or someone else who’s gotten their hands on an AI Program.\n\nThere’s so REAL good music that deserves those iTunes spots. This has become an embarrassment.\n\n*Also be on the lookout for something called Xania Monet. She’s NOT the great Victoria Monet, who is really real and vastly talented!*", "url": "https://wpnews.pro/news/ai-alert-number-1-song-on-itunes-called-leave-the-lamp-on-lord-by-arthur-hayes", "canonical_source": "https://www.showbiz411.com/2026/07/23/ai-alert-number-1-song-on-itunes-called-keep-the-lamp-on-lord-by-arthur-hayes-is-fake-so-is-country-act-noah-nine", "published_at": "2026-07-23 19:34:42+00:00", "updated_at": "2026-07-23 20:00:59.878942+00:00", "lang": "en", "topics": ["artificial-intelligence", "ai-ethics", "ai-policy"], "entities": ["Arthur Hayes", "Gravel & Grace", "iTunes", "YouTube", "Spotify", "Noah Nine", "Eddie Dalton", "Showbiz411"], "alternates": {"html": "https://wpnews.pro/news/ai-alert-number-1-song-on-itunes-called-leave-the-lamp-on-lord-by-arthur-hayes", "markdown": "https://wpnews.pro/news/ai-alert-number-1-song-on-itunes-called-leave-the-lamp-on-lord-by-arthur-hayes.md", "text": "https://wpnews.pro/news/ai-alert-number-1-song-on-itunes-called-leave-the-lamp-on-lord-by-arthur-hayes.txt", "jsonld": "https://wpnews.pro/news/ai-alert-number-1-song-on-itunes-called-leave-the-lamp-on-lord-by-arthur-hayes.jsonld"}}
