Eminem's Cease-and-Desist Targets Campaign Trail Performance of 'Lose Yourself'

Eminem has sent a cease-and-desist letter to Republican presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy, demanding that he stop using the rapper's lyrics on the campaign trail. Ramaswamy had performed Eminem's song "Lose Yourself" at the Iowa State Fair, gaining attention on social media. The letter, sent by BMI, stated that any further use of Eminem's music would be considered a breach of agreement. Ramaswamy, a biotech entrepreneur, has expressed his admiration for Eminem and his identification with the rapper's underdog narrative.
