The legendary rock band announced on Sunday that they will be joining music rights group BMI to prevent President Trump from continuing to use their music during his re-election campaign rallies. Their decision was made after the president’s campaign used the song “You Can’t Always Get What You Want” while closing out his rally in Tulsa, Oklahoma on June 20.
“The BMI has notified the Trump campaign on behalf of the Stones that the unauthorized use of their songs will constitute a breach of its licensing agreement. “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.’’

This is not the first time The Rolling Stones had to tell President Trump to cease-and-desist when it comes to using their music as a part of his campaign. Back in 2016, Trump used the same song and “Start Me Up.” They along with several other artists have asked Trump’s team to stop using their music in order to avoid any controversy and criticism from fans.
