The news comes just one day after <a href=\"https:\/\/billboard.com\/artist\/megan-thee-stallion\">Megan Thee Stallion<\/a> was <a href=\"https:\/\/www.billboard.com\/music\/rb-hip-hop\/megan-thee-stallion-kamala-harris-rally-atlanta-1235742703\/\">announced<\/a> as a performer at the rally.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tIn 2022, <a href=\"https:\/\/billboard.com\/artist\/takeoff\">Takeoff<\/a>, Quavo\u2019s nephew and <a href=\"https:\/\/billboard.com\/artist\/migos\">Migos<\/a> bandmate, was tragically shot and killed. Since then, Quavo has remained steadfast in his commitment to gun violence prevention, having been involved with the Office of Gun Violence Prevention since its inception. Last month (June 18), Quavo hosted the inaugural Rocket Foundation Summit, where Harris <a href=\"https:\/\/variety.com\/2024\/music\/news\/quavo-kamala-harris-white-house-rocket-foundation-summit-1236035478\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">joined<\/a> him in a fireside chat, during which the two declared June 18 \u201cTakeoff Day\u201d in the late rapper\u2019s memory.

Harris\u2019 likely move to the top of the Democratic ticket has spurred a surge of support, especially <a href=\"https:\/\/www.billboard.com\/lists\/musicians-endorsing-kamala-harris-president-2024\/\">among musicians<\/a>, including Cardi B, Olivia Rodrigo, Lizzo and more. If elected, Harris would be the first woman, first person of South Asian descent and first HBCU graduate to serve as president of the United States of America.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tWhile the Harris campaign has yet to name the Vice President\u2019s running mate, the operation has notably embraced pop music as the election cycle barrels onwards.
