On Tuesday (Aug. 20), Lil Jon and Common made some surprise appearances at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago. Lil Jon appeared during Georgia’s celebratory roll call, where the states ceremonially pledged delegates to Harris to be the Democratic nominee for president.

“Ladies and gentlemen, we are here tonight to officially nominate Kamala Harris for president,” Jon calls out before diving into “Turn Down for What.”

Chi-native Common gave a more reserved performance of his new song “Fortunate” alongside singer Jonathan McReynolds and announced his support for Vice President Kamala Harris.

“I thank God for this moment in time, where Kamala Harris will change the world for the better with love, hope and grace,” Common said before running through the track.

Outside of rap, singer Patti LaBelle also performed “You Are My Friend” during the night’s In Memorium segment.

Rappers Continue to Support Kamala Harris

Lil Jon and Common are just the latest rappers to show support for Vice President Kamala Harris. Megan Thee Stallion appeared at Kamala’s Atlanta rally back in July, and performed her songs “Girls in the Hood,” “Mamushi,” “Body” and “Savage” for the crowd.

“I’m so happy to be here, Atlanta,” Megan said. “We about to make history with the first female president. The first Black female president. Let’s get this done, Hotties.”

Quavo also spoke at the event, speaking on the importance of quelling gun violence and pledging his support for the VP’s presidential run.

“You can’t understand the struggle of gun violence if you not in the field or in the heart of it,” Quavo said. “So, one thing I learned from working with Vice President Harris is she always stand on business. From inviting me to the White House last year to discuss these solutions, to passing the biggest gun safety laws today.”

In June, Kamala also spoke at a fireside chat at Quavo’s 2024 Rocket Foundation Summit on gun violence prevention in Atlanta.
