Independent solo artist 50mething (Paul Jenner) confronts one of the most pressing issues of our time with the release of his powerful new single “O oh it’s AI”.
Born from the relentless flood of artificial intelligence into everyday life, the track delivers an unflinching message about AI’s darker implications — from job displacement to the exploitation of vulnerable populations, particularly women and children. While acknowledging that some applications of the technology serve positive purposes, 50mething focuses on its capacity for harm and compromise in a society increasingly overwhelmed by its rapid proliferation.
Working entirely alone from his home studio in Ealing, 50mething crafts music with complete artistic control and uncompromising honesty. At 58 years old, the former dancer and garden builder began releasing music in January 2026 after overcoming a cancer diagnosis in 2024. Drawing perpetual inspiration from Prince, his work reflects the confidence of maturity and a fearless willingness to address subjects many artists avoid.
“This stands out because there’s too much of it,” says 50mething. “Coming thick and fast. A constant flow.”
With a large catalogue of unreleased tracks, 50mething continues to release music gradually via Ditto, using his platform to speak on social and political realities with clarity and conviction.
“O oh it’s AI” is available now on all major streaming platforms.
