A man who admits picking on Eminem when they were schoolmates cannot sue the rapper over a song about the bullying, the Michigan Court of Appeals has held. The panel said a "reasonable listener" would not take literally the lyrics, which includes Eminem singing that his "whole brain fell out" of his skull. The appeals court upheld a ruling by a trial court judge who had composed her own rap, which concluded, "It is therefore this Court's ultimate position/that Eminem is entitled to summary disposition."
