Dua Lipa Won The Copyright Lawsuit Over Her Song “Levitating” #shorts #dualipa #music #pop #lawsuit

[itzessy]

This is the most unfair lawsuit i have ever heard 💀✋🏾

[hendriesantio]

Copyright lawsuit is the most ambiguous thing that I've ever known from music industry.

[TheCagedBirdSings]

They probably didn’t have the funds to proceed with the legalities. Dua Lipa’s song is good but give credit where credit is due, as the very least. That’s just taking advantage imo!

[anikabutler]

Her songwriters definitely stole the song but the band probably didn’t have the money to continue litigation meanwhile the label has a whole department of lawyers.

[HebrewTactical]

Judge was clearly payed off. They copied elements. This is closer than the Robin Thicke song vs Marvin Gaye

[Dreamwalkerz]

But it sounds very similar. How did she win?

[TheDUKEZ]

How tf did she win? She obviously copied them

[Louisegallogly]

For all the people in the comments saying she shouldnt have won I’ll explain. Basically the chord progressions used are extremely basic. They’re are hundreds of songs using the same chord progressions in different way, like diff keys for example. This means that first, it’s very possible dua lipa didn’t hear the song while making levitating, and second it’s not unique enough to be copyrighted or owned. I learned this from a YouTube video. I forget who made it but you can search up something like why dua lipa won lawsuit and you’ll probs find it.

I think the point is the existence of "Rosa Parks"

That is orginal from Outkast song "Rosa Parks" both of them would lose if Outkast sued them. Dua was listening to Outkast when she made future nostalgia. She is a GIANT Outkast fan.

The greater your fame, the better your chances of winning. Trust me, you can't find any lawsuit that an unknown artist can win against a famous one

[heyyou]

Both songs sample the SAME song so yeah It was a dumb lawsuit to begin with

[w]

Adam Neely covered the beginning of the lawsuit in a video where he basically said their chord progression was too common and vague
Never mind she based it off a song from the 90s
Also Artikal’s song had virtually no internet presence until the lawsuit happened
Watch the video
You’ll see why Dua Lipa’s only cutting it close

[peak]

People who are saying that Dua Lipa stole from them have 0% music theory knowledge

[payton]

Saw her perform yesterday, she didn’t do this song but she was so entertaining!

[nabahmadi]

Such a farcical situation...clearly copied.

[nhanNguyen-wofy]

Listen, kids, they both pay for that sample through an app. The other artist just went on the lawsuit for recognition

[mr.libluckiestinfinitebene]

This man, giving justice to music, thanks we all owe you one

[tmpterrostone]

Dropped.
Most likely means

Ran out of money
Unfair because lawyers could just outright buy the case by making it too expensive.

Some things are so plain to look at and be like yea
Something dont add up.
But since we got more green

Thats the whole point of copyright.
I cant out bid you
So even if i made it after yours.
I can claim it
