flag Lil Durk fights to exclude his rap lyrics from trial, calling them art, not evidence.

flag Lil Durk is challenging the use of his rap lyrics as evidence in his federal murder-for-hire trial, arguing they are artistic expression, not proof of crime. flag His defense team filed a motion to exclude 12 songs and clips, saying the government hasn’t shown when they were written, who wrote them, or how they connect to the alleged crime. flag They claim the lyrics are generic and common in hip-hop, potentially prejudicing jurors, and criticize prosecutors for changing which songs they plan to use. flag The case highlights a national debate over whether rap lyrics should be admitted in court, with advocates pushing for legal reforms to protect artistic expression.
