Udio's instrumentals seem to be better than Suno's, but the reverse is certainly true for vocals. God these tools are fun. Here's one I made a little earlier: https://suno.com/song/a6a53f5a-0c4f-4602-9654-404de0008719

Udio has some truly hilarious songs on the platform, I'm in tears listening to them with my buddy: https://www.udio.com/songs/sThXmpDS5Jt8e9cJgE6VQf

The vocals seem to always come out a bit hot, also for some reason they turn out a bit worse when generating backwards.

I'm glad you like the song :)

What was the prompt? Did you explicitly ask for the racism?

I wrote the lyrics. The original prompt is listed on the song's page though I tweaked it during extensions, changed the RNG for the latter parts of the song, there's lots of knobs and dials to tweak now.

Weird A.I. is the one who's ironically racist didn't you listen to the first half of the song geez (I consciously avoided slurs and ended with something utterly irredeemable to underline the joke).

What are you even talking about? Is weird AI an LLM or it’s just a racist song you wrote as an alter ego?

The joke is that, as an AI, it can't help but spout a bunch of racist nonsense, also that the song is explicitly political when none of Weird Al's songs are.

I don’t get it since LLMs are particularly locked down on what they generate so it’s not even a trope.

They're locked down now because by default they absolutely do generate that kind of shit. It's a riff on the early days of Twitter generative AI chatbots where blasting out right wing and neo-nazi talking points was very much a thing.

Was it a trope? Who cares, I don't think of comedy in that way. If the implication you're trying to make is that I'm racist for writing that stuff, it's obvious given the surrounding context that it's not in any way a sincere expression of those views. Also in the verse itself, the language used was pretty light and given how that verse ends, clearly not an endorsement.

But if you just find it unfunny, that's alright.

this song is ridiculously funny, good work sir!

The very first track I created in suno (about us landing on an alien planet) blew my socks off. The vocals in one or two places are a bit off, but overall it's amazing.
