Prince's representatives revive complaint letter to Trump campaign after it plays 'Purple Rain' at the president's rally.
At President Donald Trump's campaign rally at the Target Center in Minneapolis Thursday night, thousands of supporters in red"Make America Great Again" hats listened along to Prince's"Purple Rain" despite the Trump campaign agreeing one year ago to cease playing the late superstar's music.

“We were paying respect to a great artist in his hometown,” a senior campaign official told ABC News. A year ago singer and entrepreneur Rihanna also demanded the Trump campaign to stop playing her hit"Please Don't Stop the Music" at what she called"tragic rallies." A month prior to her complaint, Pharrell Williams issued a cease-and-desist letter to Trump after his upbeat song"Happy" was played at a rally in Indiana hours after a mass shooting at the Tree of Life synagogue in Pittsburgh.
Politicians generally have the right to use songs at rallies if they have a"blanket license" for the artist's catalog from one of the four U.S. performing rights organizations that licenses songs. However, artists can opt out of these licenses, and others have sued under the belief it's false advertising to suggest they endorse a candidate who plays their music.
