Last year, I reported on Blaze Foley, a country musician who was murdered in 1989, but whose Spotify page was suddenly featuring new, AI-generated music under his name. I’ve recently reviewed dozens of examples of other dead musicians who are also apparently publishing AI-generated music under their names on Spotify. In some cases, album covers for dead, Black jazz musicians feature white, AI generated artists instead.  https://archive.ph/2026.09.17-135026/https://www.404media.co/spotify-ai-music-scam/
