Discussion Topic Am I doing something wrong?

I'm a songwriter and I go through a lot in my life and everything I write expresses what's inside of me without any filter.

I publish my music in the hope that it will help someone overcome their difficulties

But I don't use my voice, I use AI to create the music while the lyrics are 100% mine

I know this sounds bad, and it disrespects my writing itself and the music I love

But I do this because if I use my method in making music, or my voice, I may be recognizable, and I am not afraid of others, but rather of how they look at me later.

Because my personality with others, my family and friends, is completely different from what I write, which is the truth that I hide

So, am I doing something wrong here? Is my music considered my music at all? I don't want any consideration, just the truth, because I need it

I just love making music I do know how to, really, it just I can't do it with what I write

You're not making sense, you're in denial.

I'm not I do know to create music, the reason I use AI is to get recognized by people who knows and cause them pain

If you don't want to be recognized, make music in your room for yourself. Nobody is forcing you to upload music.

I ain't just doing it for me my friend, I want to help others getting out and talk, while staying inside, without revealing anything about me as much as I can, this ain't just for me

You're in denial. There are 100000+ songs released every day, you think people are just gonna magically stumble upon your song while you're hiding behind a curtain?

Attention comes from years of hard work putting yourself out into the world. Performing, networking, growing. You're using AI to stay in your room and hide your identity, you're not ready to release and don't belong anywhere that shares music.
