Dua Lipa settles copyright lawsuit over *Levitating* remix

Dua Lipa has settled a long-running copyright lawsuit over the use of a recording in a remix of her hit *Levitating*, though the terms have not been disclosed.

The settlement was reported by *Rolling Stone*, citing lawyers for both sides. It is not known whether Lipa or her label, Warner Music Group, paid damages.

Musician Bosko Kante sued Lipa and Warner in 2023, alleging they used a recording of his talk box—a device that creates sound effects—without permission in a remix. Kante said he had agreed to the recording’s use in the original version of *Levitating*, but not in later versions. His complaint sought $20 million in damages.

Lipa also faced two other lawsuits alleging plagiarism of *Levitating*; she prevailed in both, according to Nieuws.nl. Those cases were separate from Kante’s claim over the talk-box recording.
