Ice Cube

<p>While the recent advancements in technology certainly have their benefits, it&#8217;s hard to deny that some of them are terrifying. Over the past few months, an increased number of artificial intelligence-generated music has been coming to the forefront, whether in the form of artists covering unlikely songs (such as <a href="https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/660434-drake-responds-to-ai-cover-of-ice-spices-munch-this-the-final-straw">Drake on Ice Spice&#8217;s &#8220;Munch (Feelin&#8217; U)&#8221;</a>) or using the voices of dead rhymers to cover tracks from other artists made long after their passing. We&#8217;ve heard several public figures using their platform to voice the dangers of AI. The latest is <a href="/profile/IceCube" class="text-word" target="_blank" >Ice Cube</a>, who candidly shared his opinion during this past Friday&#8217;s (May 19) episode of the <em>Full Send</em> podcast.</p>



<p>After one of the hosts asked the NWA alum if he heard the recently circulating <a href="/profile/TheWeeknd" class="text-word" target="_blank" >The Weeknd</a> and <a href="/profile/Drake" class="text-word" target="_blank" >Drake</a> AI collaboration, Cube made it abundantly clear that he &#8220;doesn&#8217;t want to hear&#8221; such things. When it was argued that &#8220;everyone on the internet&#8221; has been listening to the track, the Californian shot back, &#8220;Yeah, I don&#8217;t wanna hear that bullshit. He should sue whoever made it.&#8221; When it was suggested that the technology is coming for his career too, he made it known that he won&#8217;t hesitate to take legal action against anyone who tries.</p>

<p>&#8220;Yeah, and I&#8217;mma sue the muthaf*cka who made it and the people and the platform who play it,&#8221; the &#8220;No Vaseline&#8221; hitmaker declared. &#8220;It&#8217;s like a sample, you know what I mean? Somebody can&#8217;t take your original voice and manipulate it without having to pay.&#8221; </p>



<p>As <em>HipHopDX</em> notes, others who have spoken out about their issues with AI lately include <a href="/profile/william" class="text-word" target="_blank" >will.i.am</a>. &#8220;We all have voices, and everyone’s compromised because there are no rights or ownership to your facial math or your voice frequency,&#8221; he <a href="https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/672153-will-i-am-face-math-a-i">told DJ Whoo Kid on <em>SiriusXM</em></a>, addressing the dangers that face everyday people too. &#8220;So, forget songs. Banks. People calling up your bank pretending to be you.&#8221;</p>
