  The rapid advancement of AI-generated singing voices, which now closely mimic
natural human singing and align seamlessly with musical scores, has led to
heightened concerns for artists and the music industry. Unlike spoken voice,
singing voice presents unique challenges due to its musical nature and the
presence of strong background music, making singing voice deepfake detection
(SVDD) a specialized field requiring focused attention. To promote SVDD
research, we recently proposed the "SVDD Challenge," the very first research
challenge focusing on SVDD for lab-controlled and in-the-wild bonafide and
deepfake singing voice recordings. The challenge will be held in conjunction
with the 2024 IEEE Spoken Language Technology Workshop (SLT 2024).
