Campaigning for the post of President of the United States to the tunes of Beyoncé, Kamala Harris is doing it. Freedom, the duet with Kendrick Lamar, will be the anthem in the coming months of the new presidential candidate’s political rallies.
The vice-president began her campaign barely 24 hours after Joe Biden announced his withdrawal from the 2025 presidential race on Sunday.
Beyoncé’s political commitment
Queen B intervenes from the first appearance of Kamala Harris. She publicly supported Joe Biden’s candidacy with Kamala Harris as vice-president in 2020. This time she authorized the new contender for the White House to use the sound of her 2016 album Lemonade to follow her throughout her meetings, as reported by CNN. The artist has not commented on this subject but this gift is clear proof of his support.
Beyoncé has never hidden her Democratic leanings. In 2013, she sang at the inauguration of President Barack Obama. Three years later, she held a concert in support of Hillary Clinton. The link between the music star and the star of the Democratic camp is very close. In 2023, the Texan invited politics to her Renaissance tour. And upon the release of her latest album, Cowboy Carter, which allowed her to reclaim country, the vice-president immediately reacted by affirming that Jay-Z’s wife has “redefined a genre and recovered the black roots of music country.” Calling his music “an inspiration to all.”
