A federal judge in Los Angeles ruled Thursday that Lil Durk’s video and lyrics for his hit single 'Pissed Me Off' can be used as evidence in his murder-for-hire trial, set to begin with jury selection on August 20. Prosecutors argued the song shows Durk’s resolve to avenge the death of his friend King Von, allegedly leading him to orchestrate a hit on Quando Rondo that killed bystander Saviay’a Robinson in 2022. Durk’s defence objected, saying the video would create 'so much risk of prejudice and confusion' because the song is mostly about his slain brother, not King Von. Judge Michael Fitzgerald allowed the evidence over the objection, noting the defence can bring out that point on cross-examination. A cooperating witness present when the video was filmed will offer interpretations.
