The Rolling Stones are threatening President Trump with legal action for using the band's songs at his rallies despite cease-and-desist directives.
“The BMI have notified the Trump campaign on behalf of the Stones that the unauthorized use of their songs will constitute a breach of its licensing agreement,” the Stones said. “If Donald Trump disregards the exclusion and persists, then he would face a lawsuit for breaking the embargo and playing music that has not been licensed.”The Stones had complained during Trump’s 2016 campaign about the use of their music to fire up his conservative base at rallies.
The music rights organization BMI provides licenses for venues to play a broad array of music and has a catalog of more than 15 million songs that can be played at political events. Artists can opt out of having their music played at political events, and a BMI statement says the Stones did that.
