Beyoncé's team is taking legal action against Donald Trump's campaign for unauthorized use of her song "Freedom," highlighting the clear necessity of artists' rights in political contexts.
Trump's campaign, represented by Steven Cheung, released a video featuring "Freedom" without permission, showcasing a growing trend of political campaigns utilizing popular music in their promotional efforts.
The song "Freedom" has been positively received in other political settings, as Vice President Kamala Harris' campaign used it with Beyoncé's consent, contrasting Trump's unauthorized use.
The controversy underscores the divide in music licensing within political entities, raising questions about artist consent and the ethical use of their works in campaigns.
