Lizzo settled a copyright lawsuit over that unreleased jeans track. The case alleged that her snippet sampled a seventies soul song without permission. The legal action was filed by a trust representing the original songwriter's interests. Both parties notified the court that they reached a settlement agreement, with full dismissal expected soon.

The track gained attention for its lyric referencing a popular actress's ad campaign. Lizzo shared the snippet on social media platforms but never commercially released it. Her representatives expressed surprise at the initial lawsuit, noting the song was not monetized. The plaintiff had sought damages and an injunction against any future use.

This dispute resolves relatively quickly compared to past litigation involving the artist. A previous copyright case over a major hit took years to reach a settlement. The same trust has filed similar actions against other high-profile musicians recently. Terms of this current agreement remain confidential and undisclosed to the public.
