Bad Bunny Faces $16 Million Voice Lawsuit

Superstar Bad Bunny is currently facing a significant $16 million lawsuit accusing him and his producing partner of using a woman's voice on two popular songs without proper authorization. Tainaly Y. Serrano Rivera filed the suit on Monday in Puerto Rico, alleging her voice is featured prominently on the 2018 track "Solo de Mi" and the song "EoO".

Serrano claims she recorded the distinctive line at the request of Bad Bunny's producer, Roberto Rosado, when they were university students in 2018. She asserts she was never informed the recording would be used commercially and never agreed to a contract or provided written permission for its inclusion.

The lawsuit contends that the recording has become an iconic catchphrase associated with the Grammy-winning artist. Serrano is seeking $16 million from Bad Bunny, his record label Rimas Entertainment, and the producer for alleged violations of her privacy and publicity rights, adding to a history of similar legal challenges.
