Drake has taken down his diss track featuring AI Tupac

Tupac Shakur’s lawyers warned Drake that they would take him to court if he did not take down his “Taylor Made” diss track featuring AI-altered vocals made to sound like the late rapper. And it seems like the message was received loud and clear.

Following Tupac’s lawyers giving Drake 24 hours to pull “Taylor Made” or risk being sued, the Canadian rapper has apparently chosen the former option and removed the song from his X profile. Drake first posted “Taylor Made” on April 19th as the latest response in his ongoing beef with fellow rapper Kendrick Lamar, whose fondness for Snoop Dogg and Tupac is thought to be the reason Drake used recreations of their voices in his song. 

Because “Taylor Made” was never officially released on any streaming platforms, it’s unclear whether Drake made any money directly from the song’s creation — something Tupac’s estate would rightfully be concerned about. But the song’s long since been reposted all across the internet, and it’s one of the most notable examples of a mainstream musician playing with technology that other artists see as a threat to their careers.
