Pop singer Kesha expressed her outrage and rejection of the Donald Trump administration after the White House used her hit song 'Blow' in a war-themed TikTok video. Through her social media, the artist accused the government of using her music to "incite violence and threaten war."

The controversy originated on February 10, when the official White House TikTok account posted a clip showing the silhouette of a fighter jet firing a missile at a warship, which explodes in a fireball.

The post was accompanied by the caption "Lethality" and used Kesha's song 'Blow' as its soundtrack. The video quickly went viral, accumulating over 14.5 million views and 1.8 million likes on the platform. Although the video was posted several weeks ago, it was this Monday that the 39-year-old singer decided to speak out about it. “It has come to my attention that the White House used one of my songs on TikTok to incite violence and threaten war,” Kesha wrote on her X account. "Attempting to downplay war is disgusting and inhumane. I absolutely do not condone my music being used to promote violence of any kind." In a lengthy message, the artist emphasized his philosophy of life and the contrast with the message of the official video. "Love always triumphs over hate. Please love yourselves and each other in times like these. This display of blatant disregard for human life and, frankly, this assault on all our nervous systems is the opposite of what I stand for," she added. Kesha concluded her statement with a pointed reference to the Jeffrey Epstein files. “Also, don't let this distract us from the fact that criminal predator Donald Trump appears in the files over a million times.” The White House response was swift. Communications Director Steven Cheung responded to the singer's tweet, writing: "All these 'singers' keep falling for this. It gives us more attention and more views on our videos because people want to see what they're complaining about. Thank you for your attention to this matter."

Similarly,Deputy Director of Communications Kaelan Dorr added: "Kesha quotes are like spinach to Popeye on this team. Memes? They'll continue. Winning? That'll continue too."

A Pattern of Musical Feuds

With this complaint, Kesha joins a growing list of musicians who have publicly denounced the Trump administration and the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) for the unauthorized use of their songs in propaganda campaigns, especially those related to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).

Just days earlier, the iconic British band Radiohead strongly criticized the DHS for using their song 'Let Down' in a video supporting ICE immigration raids. "We demand that the fans who control ICE's social media account delete it. It's not funny; this song means a lot to us and other people, and they can't just take it for themselves without a fight," the band said in a statement. Other singers who have also complained about the unauthorized use of their music include Olivia Rodrigo and Sabrina Carpenter. “This song means a lot to us and to other people, and they can't just take it without a fight,” the band said in a statement.
