Kendrick Lamar plans to perform his controversial Drake diss track "Not Like Us" during the Super Bowl halftime show, despite reported legal pressure and billion-dollar defamation threats.

Sources reveal Drake's legal team attempted to prevent the performance through pressure on the NFL. This comes amid Drake's ongoing defamation lawsuit against Universal Music Group (UMG), which he claims orchestrated a scheme to promote Lamar's diss track and slander him. UMG has dismissed these allegations as "ridiculous."

Despite the controversy, both Lamar and the NFL have released a preview featuring the track, confirming its inclusion in the upcoming performance. The decision may further escalate the legal dispute between Drake and UMG, though Lamar, not being named in the lawsuit, appears undeterred.

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.
