Tezza’s journey shows how artificial intelligence is opening music creation to people who never imagined making songs.
Not long ago, creating music required instruments, production skills, and often expensive studio equipment. Today, artificial intelligence is changing that reality.
Tools like Suno allow people with no traditional musical background to transform ideas into full songs in minutes. For some creators, that shift has opened an entirely new creative path.
One of those creators is Tezza, a writer who spent years sharing poetry online before discovering that AI could turn her words into music.
Her story is a perfect example of how technology is expanding who gets to participate in the world of music.
From Poetry to Music
Tezza had been writing poetry since 2008. Like many writers, she published her work on a personal blog, sharing poems and short stories with readers online.
At the time, music wasn’t part of the plan.
But watching her son run a YouTube gaming channel sparked an idea: what if her poems could reach a wider audience as songs?
That curiosity led her to explore AI music tools.
After experimenting with early platforms, she discovered Suno — and quickly noticed the difference. The sound felt less artificial, and the platform offered more flexibility to shape her music.
So she subscribed… and started creating.
Learning Without Tutorials
Like many early AI music creators, Tezza had to figure everything out on her own.
At the time, there were no clear tutorials explaining how to structure songs or guide the AI effectively.
So she turned to another tool: ChatGPT.
It became her learning partner — helping her understand song structure, tempo, chords, and how to guide instrumentation using prompts.
Through experimentation, she discovered that small details could completely change the outcome. Adding bracketed instructions, refining styles, or specifying instruments made a big difference.
She also explored tools like Every Noise At Once and Chosic, which helped her discover new genres and push beyond her comfort zone.
Turning Poems Into Songs
Poetry turned out to be a natural starting point for songwriting.
Most poems are already structured in stanzas, which translate easily into verses. To create a chorus, Tezza often repeats or extends key lines, sometimes adding bracketed instructions to shape the musical feel.
The result is simple but powerful: the poem becomes the emotional core of the song.
And over time, the improvement is clear.
“The more effort you put in, the more unique the song becomes.”
Advice for New AI Music Creators
After more than a year creating AI music and uploading regularly, Tezza has learned a few key lessons.
Originality matters.
If a song sounds too close to a known artist, it’s better not to publish it. Even with AI, copyright issues are real.
Presentation matters.
Avoid using default video outputs from AI platforms. Custom visuals, covers, or videos make a huge difference in how professional the content feels.
Patience matters.
Growing on YouTube with AI music takes time — often much longer than expected.

But for Tezza, the reward goes beyond views or monetization.
It’s about creating.
A New Door for Creativity
Artificial intelligence is changing music, but one of its most powerful effects is accessibility.
For writers, storytellers, and creative minds with no formal musical training, tools like Suno are opening doors that once felt completely closed.
Tezza’s journey from poetry to AI-generated songs shows that creativity doesn’t follow a single path.
Sometimes, all it takes is curiosity… and the willingness to try something new.
