Kamala Harris’ presidential campaign received a significant boost as she made her first official visit to her campaign headquarters in Wilmington, Delaware. Stepping out to the empowering beats of Beyoncé’s hit song “Freedom,” Harris marked the beginning of her campaign with a powerful and symbolic moment.
According to a Harris confidante, her team secured prior authorization from Beyoncé’s representatives to use the song. This is notable given Beyoncé’s strict control over the use of her music. CNN reported that permission was granted within hours of the Harris team’s request, indicating a strong show of support from the iconic singer.
While Beyoncé has yet to publicly endorse Harris, the use of her song suggests she is supportive. Beyoncé’s mother, Tina Knowles, has already endorsed Harris, hinting at further support from the music superstar.
Harris is currently the frontrunner for the Democratic nomination, bolstered by strong backing from donors and party leaders. She has seemingly secured enough delegate support to clinch the nomination.
