Yesterday, GRAMMY-nominated artist and philanthropist Quavo gave the opening remarks at Vice President Kamala Harris’ Atlanta presidential campaign rally, marking the first stop of her campaign as she pursues the Democratic nomination at the Democratic National Convention.
Quavo and VP Harris have become a highly visible duo since September of last year, with the foundation of their relationship rooted in a commitment to gun violence prevention in the United States.
The rally welcomed supporters and stars alike, featuring a performance from artist Megan Thee Stallion and an appearance from Atlanta native, record producer, and rapper Jermaine Dupri. Quavo attended the event with his family, including his mother, and the mother of his late nephew and fellow Migos member, Takeoff. Losing him tragically to gun violence in 2022 has inspired the inception of Quavo‘s The Rocket Foundation and its advocacy work for gun violence prevention.
Ahead of VP Harris’s arrival, Quavo took to the stage to present opening remarks, walking on to enthusiastic applause. He addressed the attendees with a call to action, urging voters to support Kamala Harris‘s nomination bid as a leader who will work to create better, more equitable, and safer communities for future generations.
