American music superstar Beyoncé has given her enthusiastic approval for Kamala Harris’s campaign to use her powerful song “Freedom” as its official anthem. This significant endorsement comes as the political landscape shifts dramatically with President Joe Biden’s decision to withdraw from the 2024 presidential race.
A source close to Harris disclosed that, “Beyoncé, who is known for maintaining strict clearance guidelines around her music, gave quick approval to Harris’ campaign when they sought permission to use ‘Freedom’ on Monday — just hours before she walked out to the song.”
The use of “Freedom” in Harris’s campaign is expected to resonate deeply with voters, emphasizing themes of liberation and empowerment. The song’s inclusion marks a strategic move to galvanize support and energize the electorate.
Thepaan earlier reported that President Joe Biden will not be the Democratic Party’s flag bearer in the upcoming presidential election. Biden’s unexpected announcement to withdraw from the November race came on Sunday, amidst increasing pressure from Democratic colleagues on Capitol Hill, influential donors, and Hollywood celebrities. His decision followed a widely criticized debate performance last month, which raised concerns about his viability as a candidate.
