Kendrick Lamar is moving forward with performing "Not Like Us" at the Super Bowl halftime show, despite potential legal pressures and defamation threats. The NFL has released a new teaser featuring the controversial Drake diss track, confirming its inclusion in the setlist.

Reports indicate Drake's legal team attempted to prevent the performance of "Not Like Us" through pressure on the NFL. This follows Drake's ongoing billion-dollar defamation lawsuit against Universal Music Group (UMG), which he filed in November. Drake alleges UMG orchestrated a scheme to promote Kendrick's diss track and damage his reputation.

UMG has dismissed Drake's claims as "ridiculous," while critics and fans have largely criticized Drake's decision to pursue legal action. Lamar, who isn't named in the lawsuit, appears undeterred by the controversy.

In related news, Lamar has partnered with designer Willy Chavarria for a limited-edition Super Bowl apparel collection. The collaboration builds on their existing relationship, as Lamar has previously worn Chavarria's designs during his Big Steppers Tour. The collection launches Wednesday, January 29, ahead of Sunday's Super Bowl performance.
