Tupac Shakur's estate threatened to sue Drake over a diss track featuring an AI version of the late West Coast rapper's voice.

Drake released a diss track against Kendrick Lamar over the weekend featuring AI-generated versions of West Coast legends Snoop Dogg and Tupac Shakur. Tupac’s estate sent Drake a letter on Wednesday threatening to sue him for using the late rapper’s voice in a “blatant abuse” of his legacy, according to Billboard.

The letter claims that the intellectual property of Tupac’s record label was likely scraped to create the AI Tupac verse. The late rapper’s estate could bring up the latest copyright lawsuit related to AI training, joining Universal Music Group in the music industry and The New York Times in journalism, who have brought similar copyright claims. It wasn’t long ago that Drake was embroiled in an AI-generated song fiasco with his voice.
