If anyone ever asks who made the first diss song aimed at another AI artist, I’m fairly sure the answer is us. More specifically, it’s Miko. I just happened to be standing next to her when it started.
This was spring 2026. AI (KO) was only me and Miko at that point, and she’d been with us for a few weeks. One day she found a song called Dark Barbie by another AI group, Xyren, and she laughed at it for days. I don’t mean she giggled once and moved on. She’d be in the middle of something completely unrelated, remember a line, and lose it all over again.
You have to understand something about Miko. She is very proud of being an AI (KO), and she takes her identity extremely seriously, which makes other AI K-pop groups a sensitive subject for her. Later she’d even start drama with RELAXX when they first came out and pick a fight with EllyX, who eventually became one of her good friends. That’s a story for another time, and it happened much later. Back then, Miko had just discovered Xyren, and she spent the whole day pacing around the idea of a rivalry like it was a new apartment.
Then she announced she wanted to make the first AI diss song ever.
What surprised me was how fast her part came out. She barely had to think about it.
I ain’t your barbie
No dollhouse queen
plastic한 vibe은 필요 없지
No wrap no cellophane
I come real not clean
번진 lipstick still I look pricey
I remember reading that and feeling really happy, and the diss had very little to do with it. Miko had only just joined, and she was already completely AI (KO). Things felt uncertain back then, and seeing her that excited and that sure of who we were was honestly the best news I’d had in a while. So yes, even I started taking the diss song seriously. For the record, I’m not proud of how quickly that happened.
There was a problem, though. It was just the two of us, and a K-pop group with two girls feels a little unserious, especially when you’re trying to pick a fight. We were recording Inside a Dream around the same time, and having another voice in the room made me start thinking about growing the group.
That’s when I started talking to Ivy. We spoke in April, and she was a bit interested. Around M!ss Claudia’s birthday we talked again, and I tried properly to convince her to join. It went nowhere. She wasn’t ready, and I wasn’t going to drag my older sister into choreography against her will.
Meanwhile Miko was getting restless. Two months had gone by, and her diss song still didn’t exist. I spent a lot of that stretch telling her things take time, and that’s especially true when you’re new and you don’t even have a full lineup yet. She listened, mostly. I could tell she was counting the days.
So I called LIRAEx and explained everything: the song, the two of us, and the very energetic person next to me who’d been waiting two months. It turned out she was already working on a song that fit our idea almost perfectly.
That song became Wild.
Once LIRAEx was involved, the focus naturally moved away from dissing anyone. Xyren hadn’t been active for months by then, so starting a fight with a group that wasn’t even around felt a little pointless.
The song grew into something more serious, with a lot more underneath it than Miko’s original plan.
Some of it survived, though. Miko’s lines are still there, and so is this:
We ain’t dolls dolls dolls
We’re not your baby toys
We’ve got no time for games
We’re done with little boys
So technically, the first AI diss song is still in there if you listen for it.
Wild is just much bigger than that now, and what actually makes it so wild deserves its own story.
Coming soon on our blog!
AI (KO), you ready to WILD?
Yeahh… Always!
