Singer-songwriter Noah Kahan criticizes the White House for using his music without approval in a social media post. According to reports, the White House shared an Instagram post on Monday featuring images of President Donald Trump during a visit to General Motors’ flagship test site in Michigan. The post included Kahan’s song “American Cars” as a soundtrack. Kahan reacts publicly to the use of his music, saying he would not approve of the White House employing the track in that context. The responses described him as among a growing group of musicians raising objections when their songs are used by political accounts without authorization. Both outlets frame the dispute around the same incident: a White House Instagram post uses “American Cars” to accompany photos of Trump at the GM facility, prompting Kahan’s public pushback. The reports do not provide additional details on whether the White House sought permission before posting or whether any further formal steps are planned.
