Trump Faces Lawsuits from White Stripes and Isaac Hayes Estate Over Unauthorized Use of Songs
Sep 9, 2024, 09:37 PM
Donald Trump is facing multiple legal challenges over the unauthorized use of copyrighted music in his campaign. A federal judge in Atlanta ruled that Trump and his campaign must stop using the song 'Hold On, I'm Coming' by Isaac Hayes, resulting in a $50 million loss to Hayes' estate. Additionally, Jack and Meg White of The White Stripes have filed a lawsuit against Trump for the 'flagrant misappropriation' of their song 'Seven Nation Army' in a social media campaign video. This lawsuit follows a series of similar complaints from various musicians and artists who have demanded that Trump cease using their songs at his rallies and in campaign materials. After a judge issued an injunction ordering Trump to stop playing 'Hold On, I'm Coming' at the end of his rallies, Trump switched to 'YMCA.' Furthermore, Trump and Eddy Grant's attorneys are battling in court over the use of 'Electric Avenue' in a 2020 campaign video.
