Kamala Harris made a powerful statement during her campaign rally in Atlanta, bringing out rap stars Quavo and Megan Thee Stallion to support her presidential bid.
This event marked Harris’s first visit to Georgia since she began her election campaign, and it attracted an impressive crowd of 10,000 supporters on Tuesday, July 30.
Megan Thee Stallion was the first to electrify the stage, donning a cropped Democrat blue suit. Her energy was palpable as she rallied the crowd, urging them to unite and push for Harris’s victory. Her performance included a medley of hits like “Girls in the Hood,” “Mamushi,” “Body,” and “Savage,” complete with dynamic backup dancers and high-energy choreography.
Quavo, an Atlanta native, followed later in the rally with a compelling speech focusing on Harris’s stance on gun violence. He highlighted her commitment to addressing this critical issue, sharing his personal experience and connection to the cause. His heartfelt message resonated with the crowd, emphasizing Harris’s dedication to making real changes. Quavo’s speech was a tribute to his late nephew and fellow Migos groupmate, TakeOff, urging the audience to vote and honor TakeOff’s memory.
Kamala Harris used her platform to draw sharp contrasts between her policies and those of her political opponent, Donald Trump. She criticized Trump’s approach to border security, borrowing a popular phrase from Quavo to underline her point. Harris’s speech reinforced her connection with young and Black voters, crucial demographics in the upcoming election.
