After the Lizzo single "Truth Hurts " was number one on the Billboard Hot 100 in 2019, Raisen, alongside his brother Jeremiah, accused Lizzo of plagiarizing a line from his song "Healthy" and asked to receive songwriting credits.[ 10] Instead, Lizzo filed a lawsuit in order to receive a declaratory judgment blocking the Raisens from receiving any songwriting credits.[ 2] The Raisens responded in February 2020 by filing a counterclaim , asking for royalties and songwriting credits for the song.[ 11]
