Dua Lipa is facing a new federal lawsuit in Los Angeles from musician Bosko Kante, who claims the British pop star and her label Warner Music Group never received his permission to include his"talk box" recording in remixes of her song"Levitating."
The lawsuit filed on Monday said Kante is entitled to more than $20 million in profit from the infringing music. Lipa has already faced two other copyright lawsuits over"Levitating." A court complaint from reggae group Artikal Sound System was dismissed in June. A separate lawsuit by songwriters Sandy Linzer and L. Russell Brown is ongoing.
The lawsuit said producer Stephen Kozmeniuk approached Kante in 2019 about creating a talk-box track to use on"Levitating." Kante said they verbally agreed to a license stipulating that his recording would only appear on the original track and could not be sampled or reused.
