How to pronounce "的" in the songs!

I have learned that "的" is a polyphone. It can be pronounced as "de" or "di". But I am confused why it is always prounounced as "di" in the songs. Can someone tell me why it is pronouned as "di" in the songs?

The same reason 'angel' is pronounced 'an gel' instead of 'an joe' in songs.
It's for emphasis.
