“Thank you, @theestallion, for using your voice to speak out,” Harris tweeted. “Black women DO deserve better… We’ll continue to show up not just with lip service, but with action.” More recently, Harris and the Houston rapper linked up at a 2023 event in Washington, D.C. The event was a discussion for “economic empowerment of women,” and Megan Thee Stallion even posted a picture of her and VP Harris on social media. The rapper does not discuss politics in her music, but she has repeatedly urged her fans to go out and vote.
After Harris praised Megan on Twitter in 2020, the rapper retweeted Harris and reminded her followers to provide support. She also posted a video reminding fans to vote on Instagram, which received 1.2 million views. The rapper simultaneously provided a link to the site More Than A Vote, which is an online group of Black athletes and celebrities dedicated to fighting voter suppression. It’s impossible to say how much of an impact Megan had on the outcome of the election, of course, but it surely didn’t hurt. She’s poised to do even more for Kamala Harris during current election cycle.
