Trump probably shouldn’t use music from bands without their permission. I’m sure Kid Rock would be absolutely thrilled to make something for his campaign. It might make him relevant again too.

Thing is, I think when he does something like that, he’s still thinking like a normal person who happens to have purchased that song either as a single track of album.
So thinking like a normal person, he likes the song, wants to hear it, and runs with it because he, or someone in his orbit, spent money to own the song. That’s probably as far as the thought process goes, not to SJW nutty land where music is restricted only to the people who all think the same.

Since I grew up as a wrestling fan, it’s not out of my line of thinking to pair a theme song with me or someone else. For the longest time, I rant with James Brown’s Superbad as my theme song…..but I guess I don’t have enough melanin in my skin anymore to enjoy James Brown. Hell, Trump had a theme song during his stint in WWE, Money Money Money Moneeeey…Mooooneeeeey!

Dont use shit without permission. Problem solved.
People dont want celebrities to political, all the time.
I dont want them to, either.
But, when a politician they don’t support is campaigning by using their music, I don’t blame them for calling it out.
If Biden used a Hank Jr. song and Hank Jr. said, “Fuck that. I dont support this guy”, I’m gonna guess you would be celebrating it.
In this case, Trump deserves to be called out and, quite frankly, needs to start securing permission.

Every song may have been the same song.
But it was a really good song.

The reasoning behined Linkin Park’s desision might be SJW, but they (and record company) own the rights to their music, and so have the right to choose what campaigns, movies, events, ecc. their music plays in, i’m not an expert on copyright, but if someone, whether it’s Trump or anyone else, bought the album or song for themselves, they still wouldn’t be allowed to use the music for public events or make money off of it, ’cause whoever owns the copyright wouldn’t get any royalties, wich they’re entitled to in these situations

I understand that.

My point is simply that I think Trump is just thinking like a normie who wants to play a song they like at that moment really loud, and that because they like it so much, they think they will sound cool by playing it really loudly and sharing it with everyone around them.

So from my perspective, whenever this happens, the start of it is done just on a basis of liking something and a place of enjoyment.

It’s the TDS SJWs who then take this to a place of malice and hate, and that’s what gets my dander up, because there are sane ways to deal with it. Not to mention I’d bet dollars to donuts that if Obama, or any other Democrat for that matter, did it in any same manner as Trump, based upon the same circumstances that I have laid out, these “entertainers” would not say boo. Why? Because they are hypocrites, and as long as you wave the same flag and preach the same values you can do whatever you want, because you are “on the right side of history.”

Bottom line. I’m not saying Trump is right or wrong. My whole point and reactions are to the hypocrisy of what those who do not like him do in response to his actions, when if we get in the way back machine and review the years before Trump there is ALWAYS evidence such people behaved differently when it came to the likes of Obama. It’s that simple.

I get it, it’s hypocritical to make a fuss when one person does it, but close an eye for another person, still, if they own the copyright it means it’s their shit and they can do whatever they want with it, whether we agree with them or not
I also think Trump was thinking like a normie, he liked the song and though it’d be cool to play it, it’d be nice if things could be that simple that if you like a certain song or movie you could share it with your audience/fanbase like this, but reality’s much more complicated
It’s like if you buy a movie you really like, you can lend it to a friend and share your passion of it with them, but you can’t open your own mini blockbusters and rent it out to people

Interesting fact about all this, i heared on the radio that political rallies don’t actually need to ask artist permission when using their music in campaigns, if this is the case, Trump had every right to use Linkin Park’s music, also heard that many musicians are petitioning, not against Trump, but against whoever made this law, saying that public figures should need their permission to use their music for promotional events, whether i agree with their views or not, i do agree that thay should have the right to choose wich promotional events, political or not, their music gets played at, the same way they have the right to choose what adds or reality shows use their music

Never liked Linkin Park. Their music sounded way too much alike and they tried to be this mix of different genres.
As far as this getting permission to use music during political events, didn’t Michelle Obama use a Beyonce song during some easter egg hunt when the news cameras were there? How come Beyonce didn’t call her out for using one of her songs? Politicians use licensed music all the time for certain events, yet because President Trump used it, it’s now a problem all of a sudden. So give me a break. Permission my maryland ass!

As someone who isn’t a Trump Supporter nor Trump Hater. I say this:
Why would Linkin Park be mad about Trump using their song? Like seriously, what fuck wrong with Linkin Park?
If I were Linkin Park, I won’t mind Trump nor anyone use my music and let them use my music without my permission.
I won’t mind Trump use my Art without my permission same would be said about every else, since I think everyone should have easy access to my art as in god-level access.
Plus:
Why are majority of entertainers Morons, Cowards, Drug Addicts, and Degenerates?
Why is the Western Entertainment runned by Morons, Cowards, Drug Addicts, and Degenerates?

Regardless of who you’re for, and regardless of musicians having “hypocritical” reasons behined their choices, easter egg hunts don’t technicly count as promotional events, so “if” the goal there was publicity, Michelle found a loophole
Lets say Trump was using Linkin Park’s music for his son’s birthday party instead of a rally, and he or the media post in on social media or air it on TV, that’s his family’s private enent that they can choose if they want to share with the public or not, but since that wouldn’t be a public event, like a campaign, Linkin Park can’t do shit about it if Trump wants to use their music

No offence @VinzingerG, but you don’t seem to know a lot about buisness, please correct me if i’m wrong, and i’m sorry i have no filter
It’s nice of you to want your art to be at easy access to everyone, but if your art is the way you earn a living, think about it, if you’re trying to sell a record, would you want someone to download it for free? Same if someone’s using your stuff in a situation where you should earn royalties
I’m interested in what kind of art you do, maybe i’ll have a better idea of how thingd would work

You’re right. I just said it as a example. Also my art won’t be music. But instead, it would be nothing more than drawings.

Cool, i was thinking of how thigs’d work with drawings or paintings, example, if Trump bought some of your drawings, it’d be fine for him to show them to guest who come over for dinner, but it wouldn’t be right for him to set up an exibition without your permission
