An anonymous music producer has initiated legal proceedings against Kanye West, asserting he was contracted on minimal notice to generate artificial intelligence vocal recordings for both Vultures 2 and West's solo album Bully. The producer maintains he created numerous custom AI voice models and hundreds of individual vocal outputs—derived from his own voice—that appear across five Vultures 2 tracks and supplementary work on Bully, yet remains unpaid and uncredited on streaming platforms. He seeks compensation exceeding $110,000 for contract breach and labour law violations.

The lawsuit substantiates earlier speculation about West's reliance on synthetic vocals on recent projects, particularly given his explicit declaration that Bully contained no artificial intelligence despite his documented prior statements endorsing AI in his songwriting and recording methods. The dispute arrives amid a pattern of legal friction surrounding West's recent output, including a settled harassment claim from a former assistant and a court loss regarding an uncleared sample, signalling recurring conflicts over contractual compliance and creative attribution.
