Not only God works in mysterious ways.Music, Tik Tok, the audience and AI also work in that way leaving me many times speechless.The 2019 song “Angels Above Me” by American reggae band Stick Figure is currently trending heavily due to a viral, unauthorized AI-generated remix that has dominated TikTok and streaming charts, particularly in Europe.This faster dance version of the song (sometimes referred to as a “Run Run River” remix) went viral on TikTok, with over 40,000 posts using the sound as of early May 2026. The viral version was created by AIallegedly through Suno using the band’s original vocals and lyrics, but without authorization or credit to the band, leading to significant controversy.This unauthorized AI version along with several more remixed versions topped iTunes charts in several European countries (including Germany, Austria, Belgium, Denmark, and Switzerland) and gained massive traction on Spotify, causing the original 2019 track to also surge in streams.Users on social media have found the remix catchy, blending the original’s soulful reggae vibe with an upbeat, techno-influenced dance rhythm that resonated widely on social media.The widespread discussion around the AI “theft” has encouraged many listeners to look up and support the original creators, Stick Figure, and their 2019 album “World on Fire”.While the AI version has caused financial losses for the original creators by not crediting them, the moment has brought massive renewed attention to the band, which is now working to ensure the original, authorized content is properly attributed.That means that the several AI remixes won’t be found anywhere in the charts but the original version will be.Personally i find any of these remixes bad and i am unable to deal any more with them but a fact is a fact when bad taste overcomes any reason for this one to be viral.This MBD remix is one of those trending…
