I don't get why people are doing this crap with AI dead celebrities... It's basically like admitting up front that you're not talented enough for anyone to give a shit about you on your own lol

The irony is that Drake is signed to UMG yet thwy let him release the song while they complains about AI music on spotify and tiktok
It wasnt a release, he stuck a clip up on instagram
Any publicity is good publicity.
These businessmen know that.
Not to mention that the lyrics he wrote for him are just awful. Horrifically awful. It's insulting to Tupac.
The thing is Drake is ridiculously popular on his own and he’s already dropped a diss track without any ai. He really only did this for shits and giggles.
That makes it all the more strange that he would do something like this that absolutely reeks of desperation
Kendrick is going to verbally obliterate drake, and it's going to be catchy af. Drake only made it worse for himself.
Drake always drops two tracks, this wasn't for shits and giggles
Is he a respected rapper?
The underage girls he dates seem to think so
We are talking about Drake here. I'm not a big fan, but he's one of the biggest musical artists of our time. . .and you are arguing his using AI for a single diss track is some kind of admission of having no talent? WTF? How does this nonsense have any upvotes?
one of the biggest musical artists of our time.
Looks it up. Sees Drake is #3 for the 20’s so far.
I hate this timeline.
And maybe even closer to the top of the 2010s.
Thought he was dissing someone named "AL" Tupac at first.
Albert Tupac never got the same respect that his older brother did.
Alphonso Tupacino
"In a statement about Drake’s creation of “Taylor Made,” litigator Howard King called the song a “blatant abuse of the legacy of one of the greatest hip-hop artists of all time” and said the Shakur estate never cleared the use of Tupac’s voice."
Tupac estate lawyer should release a diss track
All I know about this guy is that he bets on the loser in ufc fights.
He likes them young
Now you know 2 things
I'm too lazy to open the article and just hope that he's dissing AI Tupac in the clear knowledge that he's probably using AI Tupac to make the track.
He had AI Tupac tell people that liking young girls is a gift.
Edit: that isn't a joke
That's some lame shit. Also, Drake can't rap and his lyrics suck.
All entirely true statements
Can't tell if this is sarcastic but the intention was that Tupac was helping Kendrick get over his "writers block" for his next diss track by "gifting" him an idea to make fun of drake for liking young girls, drakes trying to beat him to the punch, while trying to discredit it as just gossip with the budden podcast line.
Hes dissing Kendrick Lamar with AI Tupac.
Honestly using ai such bad move in a rap beef, yeah Taylor Made kind of went hard for a drake song, but Kendrick now can make fun of him for needing ai on his track, ignoring how cringe and hypocritical him using ai is, it's a bad move handing his main adversary a loaded gun like that
Taylor Made kind of went hard for a drake song
As soon as I heard Tupac's voice the entire track was wack to me. Drake is lame and corny for disrespecting rap like that and hip hop in general.
I mean…isn’t he lame and corny since forever? And, like, a creep?
The Snoop part is AI too. Dude isn't even dead!
This is the best summary I could come up with:
While Drake’s fans have been having a ball with the Canadian rapper’s recently released track dissing fellow rapper Kendrick Lamar, the legal team representing Tupac Shakur is threatening to take legal action if the song isn’t pulled off the internet.
In a statement about Drake’s creation of “Taylor Made,” litigator Howard King called the song a “blatant abuse of the legacy of one of the greatest hip-hop artists of all time” and said the Shakur estate never cleared the use of Tupac’s voice.
For the past few weeks, a number of rap artists, including Lamar, Drake, and J. Cole, have been pointedly attacking one another (and entertaining everybody else) through their music after years of simmering tensions over — among other things — who’s the biggest in the game.
In response to “Like That,” Future’s recently released song featuring Lamar in which he calls Drake out for making previous jabs, Drake dropped “Push Ups,” a track poking fun at Lamar’s height, shoe size, and the details of his old deal at Top Dawg Entertainment.
Following the release of “Taylor Made,” Snoop uploaded a video to Instagram with an assortment of emoji seemingly indicating bemusement.
The entire situation might seem silly from a distance, but “Taylor Made” is one of the bigger examples of what’s coming out of the AI-generated music boom that’s flooded social media and raised questions about how record labels plan to respond.
