From this article
Edit: there’s even more examples in this article
I feel bad for Suno's lawyer.
…oh my GOD, they are cooked.
Goodness gracious they must have great balls of fire to have done this.
But what if it was trained on covers?
Jesus Christ. Have people never heard of covers? Every song here is in some way or another akin to a published cover of another song. Pretty bad ones at that. Obviously if it were matching the songs one for one, then it would be considered copywrite enforceable but realistically these would be more along the lines of copywrite abuse. The music labels would absolutely love for this precedent to be set so that anything even that remotely resembles anything ever made will allow them to own new independent artists within established genres.
The cases
Here is a list of cases that set precedent. The thing that connects them all and makes them relevant is that the defendant was either successful, made a lot of money, was very popular or it was the label attacking a artist for sounding like themself after leaving the band. See John Fogerty v. John Fogerty
Actually technically covers require royalties, whether they're on a CD, or performed at someplace seedy.
They're not the time honored tradition you think they are.
Did those people just put the lyrics in? I've used udio a bunch, but not suno, but I just did it here and I and to generate the lyrics first. I could have put anything i want in there.
But even with that, at least the maria Carey one is really bad.
