An open letter was published this week titled "SAY NO TO SUNO".
It's from the Music Artists Coalition, the European Composer and Songwriter Alliance, and more.
They call Suno a "brazen 'smash and grab' platform", saying it "appropriates and plunders [...] creative work while undermining the commercial ecosystem for artists".
"Suno built its business on our backs, scraping the world’s cultural output without permission, then competing against the very works exploited."
"We in the arts must rise to confront those who would 'smash-and-grab' our creativity for their own benefit."

still astounded about the news from @projectNEWM. many great memories have being cultivated here that helped me grow professionally (first job!!!), within the music industry and as a person (1/?)
IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT:
Today, we share the news that NEWM is closing its doors. While this is a difficult end to our operations as a company, we don't see this as a total end to the work needed in the music industry.
Our goal was always to prove what was possible for the future of music, and we’ve poured our hearts and souls into it over the past 4+ years.
Despite our dedicated efforts, we are unfortunately unable to continue operations in our current form. This is due to current market dynamics and the funding required to scale a project of this nature. Although we continue to explore potential funding opportunities, we felt it would be inauthentic to proceed with ‘business as usual’ given the circumstances.
We are now focused on a responsible and orderly wind-down during this sunset process. Please head to the link below to read our full official statement, along with key dates, actions and a special note to the Cardano Community.
As an artist-first platform, we are prioritizing ensuring that all our artists get the support they need to migrate their music before the March 31st, 2026 deadline. Migration action plans, support contacts and FAQs are included in the official statement.
To the artists who trusted us and the community that fueled us: Thank you. 🤍

🥺You managed to develop this mindblowing project, onboard so many great artists and opened the door to this ecosystem for so many people.
We've shared so many memories and milestones that I've lost count. @amw7, @SickCity7, @RyanJones_NEWM and @So_Crypto_Now, forever grateful🎵

I am so sad to see this project close. I have met the NEWM team over years and they always impressed me as a group of top-notch professionals.
I wish them best of luck and hope they stay in the #Cardano ecosystem.

On november 2021, I got onboarded to my dream job. Music to me has always been one of the most important things in life, and working on making it more fair alongside the highest quality of human beings has been a blessing. To those who took this journey with us, thank you.

This is truly sad to hear.
NEWM was shaping up to be a meaningful option for musicians in Web3, and that matters.
All of us building in this space know how much effort it takes just to stay afloat. If you see a project reach this level of maturity, it’s because there were years of hard work, resilience, and belief behind it, especially under the extreme conditions of Web3.
To the entire team, thank you for the work you put in and for pushing the conversation forward for artists.

NEWM was never just a startup to me. It was a bet on a better future for artists — ownership, transparency, and infrastructure that actually respected creators.
Proud of the 4+ years we built, learned, and pushed boundaries. The mission doesn’t end here. Music still deserves better. – at Hornsby Bend, TX

Very sad to see this news, but I totally get it. Digital ownership and disrupting existing distribution models remains my number one hope for Cardano and blockchains at large. NEWM was early, pioneering. Change comes slowly sometimes.
Hats off to this project for developing a fully operating NFT music store, with limited edition music NFTs following metadata standards developed by the Cardano community. They built a working mobile app music player that plays directly from your Cardano wallet.

Great stuff about platform lock & artist payouts from NEWM. I touch on these topics in the newest @newinternetpod episode. A lot of the time it’s not a tech problem but a matter of incentives
If you’ve been following NEWM for a while, you know that we’ve talked many times about artist pay and the impact of fans before – but it’s a topic that (without real industry change) will never stop being relevant.
Between shrinking payouts, platform consolidation, and the rise of AI-generated “artists,” it’s worth revisiting some small ways fans can support the artists they love 🖤
