Do not use my music, Ariana Grande tells White House

Article excerpt

Ariana Grande joined a growing list of artists demanding the Trump White House stop using their music without permission after the administration featured her song "Bye" in a video. Grande called the use "heinous nonsense" on social media. The dispute reflects a longstanding tension between political campaigns and musicians who object to their work being associated with candidates or causes they don't support. Multiple artists have made similar demands in recent weeks, highlighting the lack of formal mechanisms preventing campaigns from using copyrighted music.
