Dr Dre just went in hard on Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, threatening her with legal action for exploiting his music “to promote your divisive and hateful political agenda”, TMZ reports.
According to the report, Dre’s lawyer, Howard King, fired off a letter to Greene, saying “Mr. Young [Dre] has not, and will never, grant you permission to broadcast or disseminate any of his music.”
Greene posted a video of her walking to the House floor Monday, using Dre’s song, “Still D.R.E.” as the music bed.
King fired off a demand letter to Twitter, asking the company to block her post. For its part, Twitter not only blocked the post … it also locked her Twitter account.
But Dre wasn’t done. King’s lawyer went after her in a blistering way, saying “you would have a passing familiarity with the laws of our country. It’s possible, though, that laws governing intellectual property are a little too arcane and insufficiently populist for you to really have spent much time on.”
