TL;DR Summary

Eminem has asked Republican presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy to stop using his songs on the campaign trail after Ramaswamy performed Eminem's "Lose Yourself" at a recent event in Iowa. Music licenser BMI has supported Eminem's request and warned that any further use of his compositions by Ramaswamy's campaign would be considered a breach of agreement. This is not the first time Eminem has objected to a Republican politician using his music, as he previously criticized Donald Trump and George W. Bush through his songs. Ramaswamy, a political newcomer, has aligned himself with Trump's movement and has used some of Trump's rhetoric on race in his campaign.
