Judge Orders Trump to Stop Using Hayes Song

A federal judge in Atlanta has issued a preliminary injunction requiring former President Donald Trump and his campaign to stop using the song 'Hold On, I’m Coming' by Isaac Hayes and David Porter. This ruling follows a lawsuit filed by the Hayes estate for copyright infringement. The judge, Thomas Thrash, did not order the removal of existing campaign videos featuring the song. The Trump campaign has agreed to comply with the ruling and stated they have no intention of causing distress to the Hayes family. Isaac Hayes III expressed gratitude for the decision and hopes it will encourage other artists to stand up for their rights. This case is part of a broader trend of artists objecting to the use of their music at Trump’s events.
