<p>President Donald Trump's official social media accounts posted a video set to Usher's song, "Daddy's Home."</p>
<p>On Wednesday, June 25, a video montage of Trump attending the NATO Summit in The Hague, Netherlands was posted on the official Instagram @whitehouse and @potus accounts with the caption "Daddy's home… Hey, hey, hey, Daddy."</p>
<p>The caption draws lyrics from the R&B legend's 2009 hit song, from his "Raymond v. Raymond" album, that read, "When I walk in, all that I wanna hear is you say, "Daddy's home, home for me." The video features a recording of the song over the montage of Trump. In recent years, Usher's track has found newfound success as a popular sound on TikTok, used to score videos.</p>
<p>During the full chorus, Usher sings, "And I know you've been waiting for this lovin' all day, You know your daddy's home and it's time to play, yeah; So you ain't got to give my lovin' away; So all my ladies, say, "Hey, hey, hey, daddy."</p>
<p>Artists such as Beyoncé, Isaac Hayes' estate, Celine Dion and the estate of Sinéad O'Connor have all criticized Trump's use of their music in his promotional materials.</p>

<p>USA TODAY reached out to reps for Usher for comment. Last year, in September, Usher confirmed on an episode of "The View" that he was supporting Trump's opponent and former Vice President Kamala Harris in the November general election.</p>
<p>"So you're supporting Kamala Harris in this election, I understand?" cohost Joy Behar asked to which Usher replied, "yes."</p>

<p>The R&B singer — who appeared on the daytime talk show one day after the debate between Trump and Harris and pop star Taylor Swift's endorsement of the latter — didn't delve too deep into his own specific policy stances.</p>
<p>"You know what? I don't get too deep into politics. I didn't get a chance to watch the debate last night. I obviously have been watching like everybody else. I think voting is an individual choice," he told the panel, adding also that "how you highlight and how you choose to highlight it on whatever platform you have is your prerogative."</p>
