Stormzy Glastonbury Review – a Glorious Victory Lap for Black British Culture (The Guardian)
Text 1: Stormzy Glastonbury Review – A Glorious Victory Lap for Black British Culture (The Guardian) Pyramid stage Not only is this headline performance a show of supreme talent, it also underlines how Stormzy’s talent and charisma has pushed forward UK rap. The notion of Stormzy headlining the Pyramid stage at Glastonbury is an intriguing one. On the one hand, an artist who’s only released one album being elevated to such a rarefied status – up there with Jay-Z, Paul McCartney, U2 and the Rolling Stones – seems unprecedented. On the other, a persistent rumour around the site suggests that Stormzy’s 5 show cost more to stage than any other in the festival’s history. That may or may not represent one of the histrionic myths that annually circulates around Worthy Farm – festival- goers with long enough memories to remember Glastonbury before the arrival of the internet and its fact-checking powers may recall the story that used to go around in the 1990s that Cliff Richard had unexpectedly died. But watching Stormzy perform, you can 10 believe it. His set opens with the kind of pyrotechnics most acts would use to triumphantly conclude their performance, and it doesn’t let up from that point on. You could argue that constitutes an attempt to bedazzle anyone who doesn’t think the 25- year-old rapper has enough material to fill a headlining set, but his performance passes without the kind of lulls you might expect from an artist without years and years of hits to 15 draw on. Bulking things up by wheeling out a cover of Shanks and Bigfoot’s UK garage chart-topper Sweet Like Chocolate proves an inspired move, likewise performing his remix of Ed Sheeran’s Shape of You.

A Comparative Analysis of the Legal Means to Oppose the Use of Campaign Music
THE JOHN MARSHALL REVIEW OF INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY LAW YOU CAN'T ALWAYS GET WHAT YOU WANT? A COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF THE LEGAL MEANS TO OPPOSE THE USE OF CAMPAIGN MUSIC STEFAN MICHEL ABSTRACT The conflict between politicians and musicians over the use of songs as campaign music is a recurring issue in almost every election cycle. Due to its energizing and unifying force, music can be an efficient instrument in political campaigning. However, artists feel aggrieved as the use of their music might invite the assumption that they are somehow endorsing the candidate. After giving a brief overview of the history of campaign music and the qualities that make it so attractive for campaigning, this piece will analyze the chances a musician stands in the jurisdictions of the U.S., the UK and Germany. The choice of the assessed jurisdictions is reflective of the common law approach to copyright found in the U.S. and in the UK and the author’s right system represented by Germany. In the absence of an express moral rights regime for musical works in the U.S., artists need to rely on adjacent claims, including copyright, the right of publicity and trademark law, to vindicate their moral interests. It will be seen, though, that these claims are futile in the assessed scenario in which the campaign obtains a public performance license. While the UK implemented statutory moral rights into its copyright law, the situation does not look promising either. The considerably narrow scope of acts that trigger the integrity right bars a successful moral rights claim.
