Apple removes vocals from iPhone 14 launch ad after lyrics were confused for racial slur<div class="feat-image">

<p><strong>Update</strong>: Weirdly, the YouTube video has now reverted back to the original ad, vocals intact.</p>
<p>Apple has updated the videos on social media, including YouTube, for the iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Plus launch ad. The original ads used a snippet of the song
Biggest by Idris Elba, with lyrics repeating the word ‘Biggest’. </p>
<p>However, the way the way the word was said in the song meant some people instead heard an offensive racial slur. It became somewhat of a viral meme almost immediately after the ad came out in September. Two months on, though, Apple has responded by removing the vocals from the ad’s soundtrack entirely.</p>
