That's right.
We jumped in T-boy style.
It's got 110 beats per minute and a pentatonic chord progression that would make Beethoven impressed.
It's almost like this song was engineered to go viral because it was, get this, the 2026 song of the summer.
The Puerto Rico song is the first AI song of the summer.
The creator of this song is a dude named William Stidler of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, but he goes by Sax Boy Billy on YouTube.
That's right.
He's a real human person.
And Jack said this dude, because as Billy himself said, I'm not a musician.
I'm a slob.
I don't claim this to be music.
Real quote.
And yet this slob has a formula for creating music, but he creates it with AI.
Billy's actually created over 100 songs on 100 different cities worldwide, Jack.
From Tempe to Cleveland to London.
They all are basically the same, but about different cities.
Like the Hartford, Connecticut song, which has the same cadence as that Puerto Rico song now that I'm hearing it, Jack.
Now, most listeners after hearing that don't know that it's AI, but he used Suno, the biggest AI music startup, to create it.
And Jack, why is it perfect timing for a Suno-generated song to suddenly go this viral?
Because Suno hit a $5.4 billion valuation last week after a big fundraise.
