U.S. Senator Marco Rubio announces his candidacy for the Republican presidential nomination At The Freedom Tower at Freedom Tower on April 13, 2015 in Miami, Florida.
Tea Party favorite Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) recently announced he's running for the Republican presidential nomination, hoping to best the Democratic party's all-but-assured 2016 nominee, Hillary Clinton.
And hey, coincidentally, Rubio really likes a lot of that hip EDM music all you kids are listening to these days.
Musicians React to Hillary Clinton's Presidential Bid Announcement
"Electronic music -- I've gotten into a little with David Guetta, Axwell ^ Ingrosso, Swedish House Mafia, those guys," Rubio told TMZ when asked what he's listening to. "And I'm still a Nicki Minaj fan. She's very talented."
After announcing his presidential bid, Rubio walked offstage to Axwell ^ Ingrosso's "Something New." Unfortunately for him, the Swedish duo was not okay with that choice. "Axwell ^ Ingrosso didn't give their permission for this song to be used and don't want to be affiliated with a particular party during the upcoming presidential race," they told Business Insider in a statement.
Well, if EDM is out, here's hoping Nicki's "Come On a Cone" becomes his 2016 campaign theme song.
