Kim had been in New York City to attend the Angel Ball the night West was rushed to the hospital. However, she ended up missing the event to immediately fly back to Los Angeles to be with her husband.

E! News learned his hospitalization came after the Los Angeles Police Department responded to a disturbance call at 1:20 p.m. on Monday. Upon their arrival, we’re told “the disturbance call became a medical emergency” only.

According to NBC News’ sources, no criminal activity was involved and the decision to hospitalize the “Fade” rapper. Rather, it was for “his own health and safety.”

West has been making headlines quite a bit recently.

Not only did he cancel the remainder of his Saint Pablo tour, but he also went on a rantabout Jay Z and Beyoncé, claiming the rapper was out to get him.

After arriving more than an hour late to his show in Sacramento on Saturday night, the 39-year-old told the crowd, “Beyoncé, I was hurt ’cause I heard that you said you wouldn’t perform unless you won Video of the Year over me and over ‘Hotline Bling.’ Now, don’t go trying to diss Beyoncé. She is great. Taylor Swift is great. We are all great people. We are all people. But sometimes we be playing the politics too much and forgetting who we are just to win. F–k winning. F–k looking cool. F–k being cool.”

He continued, “I’ve been sent here to give y’all my truth even at the risk of my own life, even at the risk of my own success, my own career. I’ve been sent here to give y’all the truth. Jay Z—call me, bruh. You still ain’t called me. Jay Z, call me, Jay Z; I know you got killers. Please don’t send them at my head. Just call me. Talk to me like a man.”

He then left the show after performing just three songs, shouting, “I’m on my Trump s–t tonight.”

Tupac’s estate to sue Drake for using AI voice of late rapper in diss track

Published

By

The estate of Tupac Shakur, the late US rapper, is taking legal action against Drake following the release of the Canadian singer’s diss track ‘Taylor Made Freestyle’.

On April 19, Drake released ‘Taylor Made Freestyle’ on streaming services.

The track stirred outrage with its alleged use of AI-generated vocals imitating Tupac Shakur and Snoop Dogg — apparently to taunt Kendrick Lamar and Taylor Swift.

According to a cease-and-desist letter obtained by Billboard, Tupac’s estate, represented by lawyer Howard King, expressed disappointment over the “unauthorised use” of Tupac’s voice and likeness.

The letter calls it a “flagrant violation” of Tupac’s publicity rights and a “blatant abuse” of his legacy.

King demanded that Drake remove the song from all platforms within 24 hours, threatening “all legal remedies” if he failed to comply.

“The Estate is deeply dismayed and disappointed by your unauthorised use of Tupac’s voice and personality,” the letter reads.

“Not only is the record a flagrant violation of Tupac’s publicity and the estate’s legal rights, it is also a blatant abuse of the legacy of one of the greatest hip-hop artists of all time. The Estate would never have given its approval for this use.”

Drake’s management has yet to respond publicly.

It remains to be seen if Snoop Dogg, whose voice was also seemingly imitated, will take similar legal action.

Tupac was fatally shot while leaving a boxing match in 1996.
