Can You Tell If These 2025 Hit Songs Were Written by AI?
In a year of chart-topping emotion, the line between human and machine is starting to blur
Some songs hit different. A phrase lands, and you pause. Did someone really write that—or was it generated?
It’s a fair question in 2025, when AI-written lyrics have quietly slipped into the mainstream. Not just in viral TikToks or demo reels, but in full studio productions, streaming playlists, and even Billboard chart entries.
This year’s biggest hits are packed with lines that feel raw, intimate, or eerily perfect. And that’s led to a new kind of listener behavior: not just wondering what a song means, but wondering who actually wrote it.
"Ordinary" by Alex Warren
Clean, confessional, emotionally direct. It feels human. It also feels… efficient. A few fans have run the chorus through LyricsDetector.com just to be sure. The verdict? Surprisingly close.
"What I Want" by Morgan Wallen ft. Tate McRae
Country warmth meets polished pop phrasing. There's a verse that slips into something almost too smooth, like it was assembled rather than written. LyricsDetector.com caught hints of AI influence—but nothing conclusive.
"Luther" by Kendrick Lamar & SZA
Dense, poetic, grounded in lived experience. LyricsDetector.com calls it human without hesitation, and that feels right. This is writing with muscle. No algorithm would reach for these cadences.
"Cliché" by Machine Gun Kelly

Nostalgic pop-punk energy, but the structure leans mechanical. Users are split: is this MGK leaning into formula, or has AI been whispering in his sessions?
This isn’t about catching anyone. It’s about listening deeper. LyricsDetector.com gives fans and creators a way to engage with lyrics differently—not just to identify songs, but to feel out their origin. To ask not just what a song says, but how it was made.
In a world where AI can mimic heartbreak, swagger, and subtlety, the human voice matters more than ever. You don’t need a detector to feel it—but sometimes it helps to see the signal confirmed.
Because when a line really lands, it’s still the human stuff that cuts the deepest.
