Overview
- FAMM alleges the hit track was created with models trained on Jorja Smith’s catalogue and is pursuing compensation to be shared pro rata with her co‑writers if awarded.
- Haven’s Harrison Walker and collaborator Jacob Donaghue acknowledge using Suno to transform Walker’s own vocals, rejecting claims that Smith’s voice appears on the song.
- Streaming services removed the original release after takedown notices, and Spotify says it detected impersonation and has not paid out any royalties.
- Haven issued a re‑recorded version with credited human vocals by Kaitlin Aragon that reached No 37 in the UK, while FAMM maintains both versions infringe Smith’s rights.
- Suno says training on copyrighted music is lawful under fair use, as major labels continue lawsuits or deals with AI firms and FAMM presses for mandatory AI disclosures.
