According to reporting by The Hollywood Reporter, folk-pop star Noah Kahan responded to a social media post by the White House that used his song “American Cars.”
“Would never approve of my music being used in support of you or this administration,” Kahan responded on Instagram. Kahan’s response has received more than 45,000 likes. The White House Instagram post no longer has any music.
The social media post, which went on multiple White House accounts, was about an event in Michigan for autoworkers.
“Made in America is BACK,” the post read. “For decades, globalists sold out Michigan autoworkers, shipping jobs overseas and gutting Detroit’s factories. Every president before Trump promised to stop it.”

Trump has repeatedly been shut down and slammed after using popular artists’ work without their permission. Over the weekend, pop star Katy Perry took to X to say she was “appalled” to see that the Trump administration had “weaponized” her song “Firework” for a video of military violence. Her response led to a MAGA meltdown and upset some Trump officials.
The estate of late music legend Leonard Cohen refused to let Trump play “Hallelujah” at the Great American State Fair. A slew of musicians who were listed as part of a concert lineup for Trump’s America250 festivities similarly dropped out or denied that they had agreed to play.
The Hollywood Reporter noted that Celine Dion, Kesha and Tom Petty have also joined the “long list” of artists who have called out Trump for using their music without permission.
