Drake’s infamous diss track for Kendrick Lamar, Taylor Made Freestyle, has been taken down less than two weeks after it was released.
The track, which was a response to Lamar’s song Like That, featured AI-generated voices of Snoop Dogg and late rap legend Tupac Shakur.
The removal of the song comes shortly after 2Pac’s estate issued a cease and desist letter to the Passionfruit singer, demanding that he take down Taylor Made within 24 hours.
The 37-year-old artist conceded to the demands of Tupac Shakur’s estate, who alleged in a letter obtained by Rolling Stone that Drake was not authorised to use his AI-generated vocals.
They further emphasized that Lamar was a close friend of the estate and always respected Shakur, who died from fatal gun wounds following a drive-by shooting in 1996.
Therefore, the use of Shakur’s AI-generated voice to diss Lamar was a violation of Shakur’s personality rights.
Had Drake not accepted the cease-and-desist, he would have been sued by the estate.
Now, TMZ reported that Drake’s team is working alongside the estate to settle the matter.
