Kanye West has weighed in on the ongoing dispute between rapper Bhad Bhabie and Alabama Barker, calling it an "A.I. beef" and making it clear that he's not personally involved. The controversy erupted after Bhad Bhabie released a diss track where she used Kanye’s voice, sparking speculation that Ye might have been directly involved in the feud.
In a recent statement, Kanye addressed the situation by distancing himself from the drama, saying, "It’s not my beef." He clarified that while his voice was used, he was not intentionally part of the conflict and referred to the issue as a product of artificial intelligence (A.I.) technology rather than a personal dispute.
The situation began when Bhad Bhabie dropped her track, which includes an altered version of Kanye’s voice. This led to fans and the internet questioning whether the rapper was in on the diss or if his voice was used without consent. Kanye's comment aims to set the record straight, positioning the issue as something bigger than just the artists involved, while calling attention to how A.I. tools are being used in the music industry.
