This is the best summary I could come up with:
Vivek Ramaswamy thought he could show off his rap “skills” on the campaign trail — but he’s getting a legal halt from Eminem instead.
BMI, the company in charge of Eminem’s compositions, sent a cease and desist letter on Aug. 23 to the Republican presidential hopeful, asking that he stop performing Slim Shady’s tracks.
His response comes after he received a letter from BMI that asked that Eminem’s work be removed from a licensing contract Ramaswamy had in place.
“BMI will consider any performance of the Eminem Works by the Vivek 2024 campaign from this date forward to be a material breach,” the letter read.
To the American people’s chagrin, we will have to leave the rapping to the real slim shady,” a spokesperson for Ramaswamy’s campaign told DailyMail.com Monday.

Macklemore, get ready!
I can’t imagine having to watch this dope live out his child hood fantasies of being slim shady.
This guy has a mix of great policies mixed with actual crazy, I hope he fades into obscurity
Edit: website lied to me he is a shit stain
I looked up his main platform goals.
Destroying public education by abolishing the department of education and banning teacher unions. Disenfranchising young voters because they don’t lean conservative, and allowing blatant discrimination again by getting rid of all affirmative action laws.
Oh yeah, the disenfranchising young voters would also implement a sort of literacy test.
He also seems to really hate Lyndon Johnson, not for starting the Vietnam War, but for passing the civil rights act.
He’s claimed (repeatedly) that black people were instantly fine after the civil war because they had the Second Amendment and guns, which is just wrong on every count.
Vivek is a bit too brown skinned for the KKK, but he sure does love their policies.
He’s got some other dogshit policy ideas, like solving climate change by burning more fossil fuels, and the standard right wing nonsense of banning speech he doesn’t like in the name of “fighting wokism”
The entire campaign seems to be an attempt to funnel money from said campaign to himself, while also promoting his shitty book on how he loves capitalism so much that he wants to prevent companies from making cynical “woke” PR efforts that help them do a capitalism.
I didn’t know this was a thing and now I’m contemplating risking my own meager peace of mind to witness it.
