The tide has crossed the halfway mark. Deezer said this week that AI songs made up more than 50% of its June uploads. It is a first for the French streamer.

From a trickle to a flood

The climb has been steep. Deezer started counting in January 2025, when AI made up roughly 10% of daily uploads. It hit 18% by that April, then 34% by November and 44% in April 2026. Now it is above half, at about 90,000 tracks a day.

Deezer can measure this because it built detection tools for machine-made music. They flag tracks from AI generators like Suno and Udio. It tags the songs and keeps them out of recommendations and playlists.
