Isaac Hayes' Lawsuit Against Trump

Isaac Hayes' estate has initiated a legal action against Donald Trump for using the song 'Hold On, I'm Coming' at campaign events without proper licensing. Unlike typical cases where artists might merely request that their music not be played, the Hayes estate sought a judicial injunction to prevent further unauthorized use. The court ruled largely in favor of the estate, stating that Trump could not use the song without the appropriate license, although it did not require the removal of existing videos featuring the music. This case stands out as a significant departure from the norm, where such disputes often remain unresolved until after an election.
