50 Cent‘s AI remixes aren’t just light-hearted fun (the type his 35 million Instagram followers have become accustomed to) — they help to showcase his musical genius in a new light, according to the man himself.

The G-Unit boss recently dabbled in the artificial intelligence trend by posting computer-generated renditions of “21 Questions”and “God Gave Me Style” that reimagined them as 1960s Motown-inspired anthems.

The move may have ruffled a few feathers given how controversial the topic of AI is in music, but if you ask 50, he’ll tell you there’s a lesser-known benefit to giving rap songs the AI remix treatment.

“I really like those songs!” he told Complex. “Look, it will reach someone that I missed. Someone who couldn’t hear what I was trying to say to them in the writing can hear it now that it’s in that format. They’ll go, ‘Oh, yo! Play that again!'”
