While AI-generated songs are all the rage on social media, streaming services and other platforms are heeding the call from artists and record labels to block artificial intelligence from accessing copyrighted works.
On Sunday, an AI-voiced song that uses technology to replicate Drake and The Weekndβs voices went viral. An anonymous creator who uses the name ghostwriter shared βheart on my sleeve,β which features vocals that sound like the Canadian artists. It also includes Metro Boominβs signature producer tag.
The song was widely shared across social media and streaming platforms, racking up millions of plays. One clip uploaded to Twitter that has since been disabled after garnering over 20 million views. βheart on my sleeve,β was reportedly also streamed 600,000 times on Spotify before removal.

However, multiple streamers have removed the AI track following a complaint from Universal Music Group (UMG).
Spotify, Apple Music, SoundCloud, Amazon, YouTube, and Tidal all removed βheart on my sleeveβ as of Tuesday.
Many of the links now come with the message: βThis video is no longer available due to a copyright claim by Universal Music Group.β Some versions are still available online.
