Producer claims Kanye did use AI on Bully and sues for unpaid wages: “Despite nearly two years of demands, the defendants have refused to compensate plaintiff for plaintiff’s services”

A freelance producer who worked for him on his Vultures 2 and Bully albums is suing him for unpaid wages and has alleged that – contrary to West’s claims – AI was used in the Bully album. Days before the album was released online in March, West wrote on Twitter/X (all in caps and without punctuation) that: “BULLY ON THE WAY NO AI”.

Just a couple of months later, he says that he started work on Bully, which included more AI vocal production. He also had to contend with a flood of lawsuits from ex-employees after his infamous anti-semitic social media postings of 2022.
