Spotify is cracking down on a growing wave of fake, mass-produced songs uploaded.

Spotify AI music is under renewed scrutiny after the streaming giant removed an estimated 75 million tracks from its platform in one of the biggest clean-ups in the industry's history.

The move is not aimed at musicians using artificial intelligence as a creative tool.

Instead, Spotify is cracking down on a growing wave of fake, mass-produced songs uploaded purely to manipulate the platform's royalty system and divert earnings away from genuine artists.

The scale of the problem highlights how quickly AI-generated content is reshaping music streaming and why platforms are racing to stay ahead of increasingly sophisticated fraud.
