Beyoncé's 'Freedom' Sparks Political Controversy
News summary

Musicians, including Beyoncé, are increasingly opposing the use of their music at political events, particularly by Donald Trump, who has used songs like 'Freedom' without permission. Trump’s campaign has faced legal threats from artists like Beyoncé after her song was featured in a rally video, despite her endorsement of Kamala Harris. Meanwhile, 'Freedom' has surged in popularity, topping the R&B Singles Sales chart, largely due to its association with Harris’s campaign, which highlights themes of empowerment and resistance. The song, originally from Beyoncé's 2016 album 'Lemonade', has long been an anthem for social justice movements and is now a crucial part of Harris's political messaging. As the political landscape becomes more polarized, the debate over music rights in campaigns continues to evolve, with artists seeking to reclaim their works from political misuse.
