    Jun 4 2025

    In this episode of the Top Music Attorney Podcast, Entertainment Attorney, Miss Krystle, discusses the rising issue of hijacked Spotify artist pages, where fake AI-generated music is appearing under artists’ names without their consent.

She also emphasizes the importance of legal protection and how artists can protect their brand and royalties when faced with impersonation or misattribution.
