6. BS Hit With Cease and Desist from Flavor Flav

Mar 2020

BS has been issued a cease and desist from Flavor Flav after the rapper’s Public Enemy co-founder, Chuck D, was announced to perform at a Sanders rally under the group’s moniker.

The letter, sent by Flav’s lawyer to Sanders on Friday, asserts that the rally uses Flav’s “unauthorized likeness” and “image” to promote the event.

“While Chuck is certainly free to express his political view as he sees fit — his voice alone does not speak for Public Enemy. The planned performance will only be Chuck D of Public Enemy, it will not be a performance by Public Enemy. Those who truly know what Public Enemy stands for know what time it is, there is no Public Enemy without Flavor Flav,” the letter states.

Flav added a handwritten message at the bottom of the note, saying “Hey Bernie, don’t do this,” with a drawing of his iconic clock.

not to Chuck S.

The letter, sent to Sanders Friday by Flavor Flav’s lawyer Matthew Friedman, accuses the campaign of using the hypeman’s “unauthorized likeness, image and trademarked clock” to promote the rally, even though Flavor Flav “has not endorsed any political candidate.”

Including the flava flav character and likeness artwork ect.... Just like kiss gene Simmons and Paul Stanley own the ace and peter characters and can put whomever they want in those exact costumes.

Basically anything flav has done while in public enemy Chuck owns the marketing rights to. This is common in the music business.

If Sanders was promoting flav solo stuff that would be different.
