    I think whoever owns the rights can do that, not necessarily the artist.

      Sure, but they specified The Estate of Tom Petty but the other three dead artists by name.

      Strictly speaking, few if any of them retain their own rights to the music. Most are owned by the label. Look on any CD, official video, etc. You’ll see Copyright Sony Music, or Universal, etc.

      It also means they probably can’t take legal action against Trump’s use of it.
