Drake had created a song where he used Artificial Intelligence (AI) to recreate the voice of rapper Tupac, but the late artist’s legal team threatened to sue him if he did not remove the piece of music within 24 hours.
Drake removed his song from his networks Taylor Made Freestyle in which used a voice generated with Artificial Intelligence (AI) of rapper Tupac Shakurafter the deceased artist’s legal team threatened him with a complaint.
The managers of Tupac’s estate – who died at the age of 25 without having children – They gave Drake 24 hours to withdraw the song or face a lawsuitas published on Wednesday by Billboard.
And, as can be seen, the Canadian rapper opted for the first option, since he deleted the song from his X (Twitter) profile.
Because TaylorMade It was never officially released on any music platform, It is unclear if Drake made any money directly from the creation of the song..
Drake had used AI to recreate Tupac’s voice, and also that of rapper Snoop Doggin a ‘tiradero’ (a song made to attack another person) against another icon of the genre, Kendrick Lamarwinner of a Pulitzer.
After the release of the song, which came out on April 19, Snoop Dogg uploaded a video to Instagram with a variety of emoticonsapparently indicating bewilderment.
Despite using this technology in his latest work, Drake has in the past been very critical of creators who have used AI to duplicate his voice and musical style.
