The estate of Sinead OāConnor, who called former President Donald Trump a ābiblical devil,ā asked Trump on Monday to not play her music at campaign rallies.
āNothing Compares 2 Uā has been played at campaign events as Trump seeks the GOP nod in the presidential race, the Associated Press reported.
OāConnor, who died July 26, 2023, at 56, ālived by a fierce moral code defined by honesty, kindness, fairness and decency towards her fellow human beings,ā according a joint statement by her estate and record label, Chrysalis.
The two entities demanded Trump ādesist from using her music immediately.ā
āIt was with outrage therefore that we learned that Donald Trump has been using her iconic performance of Nothing Compares 2 U at his political rallies,ā the statement said.
āIt is no exaggeration to say that Sinead would have been disgusted, hurt and insulted to have her work misrepresented in this way by someone who she herself referred to as a ābiblical devil.ā As the guardians of her legacy, we demand that Donald Trump and his associates desist from using her music immediately.ā
This adds to the list of artists who have not wanted Trump to use their songs.
This includes Rihanna, Neil Young, Linkin Park, the late Tom Petty and Aerosmithās Steven Tyler, the AP reported.
