The think your last sentence hits the nail on the head: it's good enough for YOU. You've essentially made a novelty song, and I don't believe you're going to be listening to it for years.
The problem is when people spend 20 minutes prompting up a song and then attempt to make a career out of slop, and in the process drown out all the new creative works that aren't just remixed slop.
> You've essentially made a novelty song
Disagree. Gp didn't make anything.
I told a waiter in a restaurant what I wanted to eat, and I got it. But I did not make the food : )
Maybe more like collaborated with a robo chef to make a plate of food based on a recipe you've adapted.
At some point you have to be OK with accepting "I made this" as meaning "my vision was executed under my supervision".
> and I don't believe you're going to be listening to it for years.
Well...it's a year and a half old and I still listen to it on a regular basis.

It might be shocking to you, but maybe people actually like "remixed slop".
Lots of people eat McDonald's but that doesn't mean it's good for you and will support your nutritional goals, or even that it's good food which tastes good.
If you want to listen to nothing but slop I can't stop you.
