Beyoncé Approves Use of Her Song ‘Freedom’ for Kamala Harris’ Presidential Campaign

Vice President Kamala Harris, newly endorsed by President Joe Biden for the 2024 presidential race, received approval from Beyoncé to use her empowering song “Freedom” on the campaign trail. Vice President Kamala Harris has received a significant boost to her 2024 presidential campaign, gaining the endorsement of President Joe Biden and the approval from Grammy Award-winning artist Beyoncé to use the song “Freedom” in her campaign. This endorsement came swiftly after Biden’s announcement to withdraw from the race, a decision that paved the way for Harris to become the Democratic front-runner.

In an impressive show of support, Harris raised a record-breaking $81 million in donations within just 24 hours of announcing her candidacy. Her campaign received another boost when Beyoncé granted permission for Harris to feature the powerful song “Freedom” from her critically acclaimed 2016 album “Lemonade.” The song, which features Kendrick Lamar, is celebrated for its empowering message and became an anthem for the Black Lives Matter movement following the death of George Floyd in 2020.

Harris made her first public appearance as a presidential candidate at her Delaware campaign headquarters, where she was greeted by the resonating lyrics of “Freedom.” The song’s message, “Imma keep running cause a winner don’t quit on themselves,” aligns with Harris’s campaign ethos and her journey in politics.

An unidentified source close to Harris’s team confirmed to CNN that Beyoncé’s approval was swiftly secured, highlighting the significance of this collaboration given the singer’s typically stringent clearance policies. The song’s inclusion in Harris’s campaign is expected to resonate deeply with voters, particularly those who value social justice and empowerment.

This endorsement adds to the momentum Harris is building as she embarks on her historic campaign, aiming to break barriers and inspire a diverse coalition of voters.
