Canderk Lamar is recently riding a height, and now he is still ready to reach one of his heights.
By winning the five Grammy Awards, which includes Song and Year’s record for his hit “We don’t like”, Lamar is a prominent actor for the Super Bowl Lex Half Time Show on Sunday.
Lamar was sitting for a rare interview during the Apple Music Super Bowl press conference on Thursday, where he was asked what people could expect in his set.
Lamar said, “Tell the story.” “I have always been very open about telling all my catalogs and my music history. And I am always fond of bringing the stage I am.”
There has been a clear excitement among the rapper fans, but it is also interesting that it will handle “not like us” in view of both the current case and the current case around it.
The song is part of a viral rap war that took place between Lamar and Drake last year, which has led to a complex legal case. Leah Stevenson, A recreational lawyer with MGL Law Firm, What began as a beef between the two largest stars of the hip hop, was far more grateful than that.
He told CNN, “This song became a great conversation for the United States to stand on morality, stand on values, to stand on the beliefs we have and the way we move on. “ “It became a song that people started to use in very large cultural moments, so this song has become much bigger than just a war.”
That’s why more and more, when he takes the stage before millions in the super bowl, everyone’s eyes will come to Lamar.
Last month, Drake filed a lawsuit label, UMG recording, Inc. in the US District Court for the southern district of New York.
The Canadian rapper and actor labeled notoriety in the publication and promotion of “don’t like us” and is looking for compensation and punishment losses.
Drake is currently a division of the Republic of Records, UMG, while Lamar is currently represented by Intercope Records, which is also a Division of UMG. Lamar has not been named as the defendant in the legalization.
“Not only are these claims wrong, but also A UMG spokesman said in a statement to CNN at the time of filing this concept that the idea that we will try to damage any artist’s reputation – try to damage the reputation of any artist Will – “We do not have to engage in defamation than any person, nor are we engaged in it. At the same time, we have this legal action to protect our people and our credibility as well as this litigation. Along with any artist who directly or indirectly a song writers can be a target of direct or indirectly legalizing.
A portion of what is about Drake – and strongly denies – what is Lamar’s lyrics in which they print, “Drake says, I hear you hear that you are in Ying/You Never go into the cell block, “and at the same time,” certified lover “says Lamar. Boy? Certified Pedo Fells “and another part of the song where they say” Train attack a bone and it is probably a minor. “
So can he perform more legal action by Drake by performing it in a super bowl, because he has already come after UMG for defamation?
Not necessarily, Stevenson said, who said that Lamar had several options for how he could handle it during a half -time show.
“Will there be a potential need where it is not allowed to perform some aspects, such as radio editing, where we are seeing ‘a minor’ and other language that is in ‘we don’t like’ and for that reason Has been snatched and coat out because it is possible to perform it? “There can be a situation where we see Kendrick could not say these words, but that does not mean that the entire crowd in the super bowl, as well as millions of Americans who are at home in their super bowl parties. Sing
CNN has reached the NFL to determine whether there are limits on Lamar in connection with the song.
Regarding the popularity of this song, Stevenson, Craig Arthur, an associate professor of practice at the Academy of Trans Dispensary Studies in Virginia Tech, resonated, one of the co -founders. VTD ITC: Hip Hop Studies in Virginia Tech.
“She’s the most relevant current of the most relevant. Arthur said in a statement, “As far as a lot of hip hops have been flattened, and I feel as if Kendrick has really maintained his LA LA roots.” People try to raise their voice like anyone else or try to imitate other people, it has a unique sound and a unique voice. I think he has allowed his status, allowing the concepts and topics that many other artists are ashamed of.
Lamar, known by his fans as the DOT, is about to perform with his biggest audience on a stage with the date of controversy. In 2004, Janet Jackson’s “wardrobe malfunction” reverted to Mia in 2012, and Buenos gave birth to Black Panthers in 2016, there have been many moments of the viral half -time show.
But for Lamar, “we don’t like” is more than just a good jaw on a fellow artist.
In a conversation, Lamar told fellow and friend SZA that “we don’t like” who I am, whom I represent. “ Harper’s market in October. “Now, if you identify the person I represent… this person has morals, his value, he believes in something, he stands on something. He is not roaming.
“He is a man who can recognize his mistakes and not be scared to distribute mistakes and dig the depths of fear -based ideas or experiences so that he is able to express that he is less than a man, “If I am thinking of ‘don’t like us’, I am thinking of myself and who identifies it with it.”
