Beyonce may have given Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris the green light to use one of her 2016 ‘Lemonade‘ hits in campaign visuals, but the Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump has not been granted the same freedom.
Just a month ago Bey subtly (but not yet officially) endorsed Harris’ bid for presidency when she allowed the Vice President to use the ‘Lemonade’ smash ‘Freedom‘ in her first campaign video.
Apparently, Trump’s team thought the liberty would be extended to him as well as he included sound bites from the Kendrick Lamar-assisted tune in a campaign video lifted to his social media handles this week.
Quickly landing on the desk of the Queen Bey, her record label and music publisher sprung into action by delivering a cease-and-desist the 78-year-old’s reps.
Late Wednesday night (August 21), the clip was removed from Trump campaign spokesperson Steven Cheung‘s X (Twitter) account.
*****
This isn’t the first time Trump’s gotten slammed by a singer’s camp for unauthorized use of their music.
Less than two weeks ago Pop icon Celine Dion had her team call out the polarizing politician for including her timeless classic ‘My Heart Will Go On‘ at a Republican event.
In the same timeframe, lawyers for the Isaac Hayes estate slammed Trump with a notice of copyright infringement over using the late legend’s iconic ‘Hold On, I’m Coming‘ tune in campaign materials.
As of time reported, Bey nor Donald have directly made a statement about the most recent hoopla.
According to CHARTMASTERS…
The 3 act trilogy has thus far sold 6 million in overall album equivalence. Currently on pace to 10 million with Act 3.
YEE HAW 🐎 🐝 👑
If this is true Rihanna been did that with one album Anti
What is the third trilogy going to be?
Is she making any music videos?
Seeing Gaga collab with Bruno made me think it’s time for Beyonce and Gaga to collab again.
I liked act 1, act 2 I respect what she’s done but it’s not for me. I hope act 3 isn’t rock like Tina Turner. Would be cool if it was like fun and upbeat, melodic, hooks….Like going back to songs like crazy in love, baby boy, naughty girl, standing on the sun. And she could stop cos playing white people and be tanned and have long black hair.
You sound slow. She’s not cos playing white people. You’re so ignorant. And it will be rock.
Beyoncé has a whole collection of cease and desist letters Beyoncé is a copycat b**** who is known for ripping off other music artists for years ..
VOTE TRUMP
Exactly the reason NOT to vote for the OLD & WEIRD orange fart.
Exactly nothing b****.
Beyoncé is a rip off copy cat thief.
😂 Suuure! Get out the way…
And Trump’s wife stole Michelle Obama’s speech. Beyoncé credit and pays for her covers and samples. Look it up before running your mouth.
