Trump Settles Copyright Lawsuit with Eddy Grant over 'Electric Avenue' in 2020 Campaign Post
Nov 21, 2024, 08:12 PM
Donald Trump has settled a copyright lawsuit with singer Eddy Grant over the unauthorized use of Grant's 1983 hit song "Electric Avenue" in a 2020 social media post during Trump's presidential campaign. The settlement comes two months after a New York federal court ruled that Trump had infringed on Grant's copyright when he used the song without permission. According to a filing in New York federal court, the agreement brings an end to the legal dispute initiated by Grant following the song's use in the social media post. Details of the settlement were not disclosed.
