Trump Must Face Copyright Lawsuit Over Isaac Hayes Song
A federal judge has ruled that Donald Trump must face a copyright lawsuit from the estate of Isaac Hayes regarding the unauthorized use of the song "Hold On, I’m Coming" at campaign events. Judge Thomas Thrash Jr. denied Trump's motion to dismiss the case, indicating that while the complaint had issues, it sufficiently alleged ownership of the song. The lawsuit claims that Trump's campaign used the song without permission, giving the false impression that Hayes' estate endorsed his candidacy. The Hayes estate is part of a growing trend where artists, including Beyoncé and the Foo Fighters, oppose Trump's use of their music at rallies. Trump's legal team contends that the estate has not proven ownership or that Trump was personally involved in the alleged infringement. The judge stated that the case could proceed, temporarily barring Trump from using the song without a valid license while litigation continues.
