Suno Spark

An artist-development program from an AI music platform: grants, mentorship, marketing for unsigned singers, songwriters and producers releasing under their own names. Artists keep creative control, commercial rights, and their own distributor — all of that is real. Then the fine print bars participants from portraying Suno negatively "during the Term and thereafter," with no end date. That is not artist development, that is buying silence at a discount, from exactly the people with the most standing to speak. HEAT>WORK — the announcement is louder than the offer.
