Drake Withdraws 'Taylor Made Freestyle' Amid Legal Pressure from Tupac’s Estate

The removal follows a cease-and-desist letter concerning the unauthorized use of Tupac Shakur's AI-generated voice in the track.

Drake removed the 'Taylor Made Freestyle' from social media after Tupac Shakur's estate threatened legal action over the use of an AI-generated voice resembling the late rapper.
The cease-and-desist letter from the estate's lawyer highlighted a 'flagrant violation' of Tupac’s publicity rights and potential copyright infringement.
The controversial track, which was not released on streaming platforms, featured AI-generated voices of Tupac and Snoop Dogg aimed at dissing Kendrick Lamar.
Legal experts and ongoing legislative efforts are scrutinizing the implications of AI technology on publicity rights, which could set precedents for future cases.
Representatives for Drake have not commented on the issue, while the track has been widely reposted online despite its removal.
