Trump Staffer Who Gave Ice Cube A Shout Out Embraces Lil Pump
Leave it to Lil Pump to endorse Donald Trump just days before the presidential election. Not that it’s necessary surprising but Pump did agree with 50 Cent’s take on the tax hike Biden would offer. “Aye, all I gotta say is Trump 2020, bitch,” Pump said on his Instagram Story. “F*ck I look like paying extra 33% in taxes with Biden, bitch ass n***a. Fuck Sleepy Joe, n***a. Trump 2020.”
Pump later doubled down, sharing a photoshopped image of himself and Donald Trump shaking hands on his Instagram page as he faced even more criticism for his support of Donald Trump. However, he did find himself embraced by a new demographic — the Republicans. Or atleast, the Trump-supporting Republicans. Katrina Pierson, a Trump campaign staffer, shared Akademiks post of Pump’s endorsement as she threw shade at Joe Biden as if Lil Pump has released anything worth listening to in the past two years.
“I wonder if Joe Biden thinks lil Pump is a Chump?” She tweeted, adding, “#Trump2020Baby.”
Pierson has evidently been keeping tabs on what’s been going on in hip-hop as the Trump campaign has continued to try and win over more Black voters. She later sent out another tweet of an avatar dancing to “Gucci Gang.” Perhaps because that’s the only song she knows of Pump’s, captioning the post, “When Lil Pump says he’s on the #TrumpTrain.”
Pierson was the staffer who announced Ice Cube’s involvement in developing the Platinum Plan. In a recent interview with Hot 97, Ice Cube admitted that he told Trump’s staff they wouldn’t believe that he was involved unless they confirmed it. This prompted Pierson’s tweet which Cube later described as “shady.” Cube also stated in the same interview that he’s still an undecided voter. Meanwhile, 50 Cent has officially said, “F*ck Donald Trump” as a second shot at love with Chelsea Handler.

Kyle Ashen’s sun-drenched recollection with new release “That Local Girl”
Kyle Ashen’s latest release, “That Local Girl,” is a gorgeous trip down memory lane, a country single that explores that golden glow of memory, like flipping through old photographs touched by salt air and summer sunlight. It’s warm, cinematic, and deeply relatable, a song about the kind of love story that never quite goes away, even as time moves on.
“That Local Girl” is filled with imagery that quickly takes the listener into a world they can walk right into. You got a blonde-haired, blue-eyed girl on a boardwalk street by the ocean, a souped-up truck driving through town, neon lights reflecting off the ocean breeze, and the electric innocence of young love burning in the background.
But under all that cutesy trapping is something more than that, longing. Some people, some places that leave permanent marks on Kyle Ashen and us know that. What’s so brilliant about this song is that it marries those two ideas, making love and hometown memory feel beautifully inseparable. Sometimes you miss a person. And with that person, you miss an entire version of life. “That Local Girl” is more than a country love song from Kyle Ashen. He is a living postcard from the past, sun-faded, bittersweet, and glowing with feeling. A reminder that summers pass by, but some memories stay with us forever.
