Dua Lipa Addresses Tabloid Chatter, Albanian Immigrant Discrimination, 'Barbie' Movie Details, What She Did After Met Gala 2023 & More in 'Dazed' Interview

Dua Lipa has temporarily won a copyright infringement lawsuit filed against her for her 2020 hit track ‘Levitating’.Filed in March last year by Florida reggae band Artikal Sound System, the lawsuit alleged that Lipa’s ‘Levitating’ copied the hook of their 2017 track ‘Live Your Life’. While their initial filing did not include explicit evidence as to how Lipa copied ‘Live Your Life’, the band alleged that she had “access” to the track.Now, per a Billboard report, US District Judge Sunshine Sykes has temporarily dismissed the case in favour of Dua Lipa, saying that Artikal Sound System have been unable to substantiate their accusations.In their lawsuit, the reggae band offered up one theory that claims one of Dua Lipa’s co-writers had in the past worked with someone who was reportedly taught the guitar by a brother-in-law of one of the band’s members.“These attenuated links, which bear little connection to either of the two musical compositions at issue here, also do not suggest a reasonable likelihood that defendants actually encountered plaintiffs’ song,” Judge Sykes wrote, per Billboard.However, the case isn’t completely closed, as Judge Sykes has ruled that Artikal Sound System have until June 16 to refile their complaint if they are able to provide substantial evidence to back up their accusations.NME has reached to the respective management for both Dua Lipa and Artikal Sound System for comment.Earlier this month, Dua Lipa criticised the British government’s “small-minded and shortsighted” attitude to migrants.

She told the audience: "From a young age, I had the dream to be a pop star but it never seemed like something that was actually possible," adding: "I've been a new girl all my life.” Dua’s upbringing saw her born in London to parents who had fled the war in former Yugoslavia.
