Former President Donald Trump has drawn the ire of another musical group for unauthorized use of their music. This time, it’s the Foo Fighters.
Trump played the band’s song “My Hero” when he welcomed former independent candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to the stage at a rally in Arizona on Friday[…]
[…]The spokesperson added that any royalties received as a result of the Trump campaign’s use of the song will be donated to the campaign of Vice President Kamala Harris and Gov. Tim Walz.
Gah, the poor Dixie Chicks
Actually they learned a valuable lesson about “their base” and it’s part of the reason they’re not “the Dixie” chicks anymore.
Yeah, but I really wish they kept the Dixie part of their name as it refers to a geographical location and not the institution of slavery.
The demonization of the south really bugs me as someone from North Carolina.
Plus “The Chicks” is kinda generic
As someone living in GA and previously lived in Florida and also being parked skinned, the assumptions of the south are indeed not always correct… but enough stuff is happening in these places that I gotta say it’s much lower in my list of priorities. Let’s get some of this nasty stuff gone before getting upset about stereotypes. I do think I agree with your statement of the name though.
