Pink Floyd's songwriter and co-founder Roger Waters had some stern words for Mark Zuckerberg when he asked for permission to use the band's song. In fact, Waters had two very specific words for the Facebook founder: "F*** you". <a href="https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-news/roger-waters-rejects-facebook-offer-another-brick-in-the-wall-1183773/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Rolling Stone</a> reports that at a forum in support of Wikileaks founder Julian Assange, Waters read out an email that he had allegedly received from the Facebook founder asking to use his Pink Floyd song for promotional purposes in an upcoming Instagram ad. "It's a request for the rights to use my song, 'Another Brick in the Wall, Pt. 2' in the making of a film to promote Instagram," Waters said. Watch the musician read out the letter below:  [[twitterwidget||https://twitter.com/lajornadaonline/status/1403582839145353216]] According to the letter, those who work at Facebook "feel that the core sentiment of this song is still so prevalent and so necessary today, which speaks to how timeless the work is." Reacting to the letter, Water said: "So it’s a missive from Mark Zuckerberg to me. Arrived this morning, with an offer of a huge, huge amount of money, and the answer is - f*** you! No f***ing way! "And I only mention that because it's the insidious movement of them to take over absolutely everything." He went on: "So those of us who do have any power and I do have a little bit - in terms of control of the publishing of my songs I do anyway. So I will not be a party to this bullshit, Zuckerberg." <img class="wp-image-1263113161 size-full" src="https://img.vt.co/2021/06/Mark-1.jpg" alt="Mark Zuckerberg." width="600" height="458" />[[imagecaption|| Credit: Alamy / Kristoffer Tripplaar]] The Pink Floyd co-founder then described Zuckerberg as "one of the most powerful idiots in the world" before adding, "how did this little prick, who started off by saying, 'She is pretty, we’ll give her a 4 out of 5,' 'She's ugly, we'll give her a 1' - how the f*** did he get any power in anything?" This is not the first time that Waters has recently hit the headlines and he has been in a dispute with ex-bandmate David Gilmour over Pink Floy's album Animals, <a href="https://www.nme.com/en_au/news/music/roger-waters-shares-liner-notes-for-pink-floyds-animals-remaster-amid-david-gilmour-dispute-2952958">NME</a> reports. Gilmour allegedly asked for the liner notes in the remastered edition of the album to be kept a secret so that he could "claim more credit…than is his due". <h6>Featured image credit: Alamy / AF Archive</h6>
