## Key points

- Dua Lipa and Bosko Kante settled their dispute over “Levitating”.
- The case was dismissed permanently, but settlement terms remain private.
- Kante said his agreement did not cover later remixes.

## Summary

Dua Lipa and producer Bosko Kante have settled his copyright and contract lawsuit over “Levitating”. The case was dismissed with prejudice, so it cannot be brought again, but the terms were not disclosed and it remains unclear whether the settlement includes payment or a songwriting credit.

Kante said his talk-box contribution was important and argued that artists’ work should be properly used, credited and compensated. He claimed his 2019 licensing agreement covered only the original version, released on 26 March 2020, not later remixes, including the hit version featuring DaBaby. The case was one of several lawsuits over “Levitating”; two other claims were dismissed, and Lipa prevailed in those cases.
