Rappers Megan Thee Stallion and Quavo supported Vice President Kamala Harris at her first Atlanta campaign rally for the upcoming presidential election.

Before Harris took the stage, Megan Thee Stallion opened the event with a medley of her hits. She urged the crowd, ‘Make some noise for Ms. Harris, our future president… Let’s make history, Atlanta. We’re about to have our first female president, our first Black female president. Let’s make it happen, hotties. Hotties for Harris!’

Her performance featured renditions of ‘Girls in the Hood,’ her viral hit ‘Mamushi,’ ‘Body,’ and ‘Savage.’ Megan, surrounded by backup dancers in blue outfits, urged the crowd, ‘If you love your body, make some noise. And if you want to keep loving your bodies, ladies, let me hear you make some noise.’

Quavo also showed his support for Harris in her presidential bid. In 2022, following the tragic shooting death of his nephew and Migos group member Takeoff, Quavo founded the Rocket Foundation. He has collaborated with Harris to address gun violence, and last September, Quavo visited the White House to discuss strategies for reducing gun violence and safeguarding communities.

‘One of the issues I care about is resolving the gun violence issue,’ Quavo told the crowd in Atlanta.

‘And you can’t understand the struggles of gun violence if you’re not in the field or in the heart of it. So one thing I learned about working with Vice President Harris is she always stands on business. From inviting me to the White House last year to discuss these solutions to passing the biggest gun safety laws today. So it’s only right in the birthplace of the culture, it’s also the same place that launched the first African-American woman to run for president. yeah, we’re changing the culture again. So if you never voted before, make sure you get out and vote right now ’cause it’s the real one. And in the words of my brother Takeoff, let me get a ‘Kamala,'’ he said.

Following an introduction by Tyler Greene, Harris took the stage to outline her mission to win the presidency and unite the nation. She addressed her potential opponent, Donald Trump, who has been hesitant about officially debating her. ‘Well, Donald, I hope you’ll reconsider and meet me on the debate stage. As the saying goes, if you have something to say, say it to my face,’ she said.

She ended on a hopeful note, saying ‘Georgia, I ask you, are you ready to get to work?” she said. ‘Do we believe in freedom? Do we believe in opportunity? Do we believe in the promise of America? And are we ready to fight for it? And when we fight, we win.’
