A U.S. district judge dismissed a copyright case against Dua Lipa regarding her hit song “Levitating” filed by reggae band Artikal Sound System, stating that the band failed to prove that Lipa and the creators of Lipa’s hit had access to “Live Your Life” prior to making the song. The band could possibly refile an amended complaint by June 16. This is one of two cases involving Lipa’s “Levitating.”
A federal court in Los Angeles dismissed a lawsuit against Dua Lipa, Warner Records, and songwriters Clarence Coffee Jr., Sarah Hudson, and Stephen Kozmeniuk, which claimed that Lipa had copied a Florida reggae group Artikal Sound System's song in her popular track "Levitating." The judge found that Artikal Sound System could not prove that the writers had seen or heard the song despite the group's claims. The group has the option to file a new amended complaint by June 16. Lipa is still facing another copyright infringement lawsuit over "Levitating."
