Elvis's estate sued Suno too — for cloning the King's voice

Elvis Presley Enterprises and affiliated rights holders filed their own case against Suno in the same California federal court, alleging the platform used copyrighted Presley material without permission and let users generate unauthorized replicas of his voice — a claim that also invokes Tennessee’s ELVIS Act, the 2024 law protecting performers’ voices and likenesses.

The Presley suit asks a question the Eminem case doesn’t: whether an AI company is liable when users recreate an identifiable singer’s voice. Suno says it exists to help people create original music, not trade on anyone’s name or likeness, and says it blocks prompts naming specific artists. Both complaints now await answers, and the fight will turn on evidence about how Suno built its system.
