EXCLUSIVE🚨: Isaac Hayes Family Sues Trump for $3m Over Unauthorized Use of "Hold On, I'm Coming"
The family of legendary soul singer Isaac Hayes has filed a lawsuit against former President Donald Trump, seeking $3 million in damages over the unauthorized use of the classic hit "Hold On, I'm Coming." The lawsuit, filed in a New York federal court, alleges that Trump used the song without permission during several campaign events and rallies, violating copyright laws.
"Hold On, I'm Coming," originally performed by Sam & Dave and co-written by Isaac Hayes and David Porter, is one of the most iconic tracks of the 1960s. The Hayes family claims that the song's use in Trump's campaign was not only unauthorized but also contrary to the values and legacy of Isaac Hayes, who was known for his advocacy for civil rights and social justice.
"We were shocked and dismayed to learn that 'Hold On, I'm Coming' was used without our permission," the Hayes family said in a statement. "Isaac's music was a symbol of empowerment and resilience for many. To see it used in a context that does not align with his beliefs is deeply upsetting."
The lawsuit further alleges that the Trump campaign's actions have caused irreparable harm to the reputation and legacy of Isaac Hayes. The family is demanding $3 million in damages for the unauthorized use and an injunction to prevent further misuse of the song.
