Who Voted For Trump, Biden & Kanye? The Election Day Round-Up

Election day is officially upon us. As of November 2, a record-breaking 99 million+ Americans had already cast their ballots for the 2020 Presidential Election, whether in-person or by mail, far exceeding the roughly 47 million early voters in the 2016 election. Pivotal states Texas and Washington registered more early votes than their entire 2016 voter turnouts, while highly sought-after state, Florida, trails just behind in its voter turnout rate, with early voter ballots exceeding 93% of the state’s 2016 total turnout. 

This upsurge in early voting can largely be credited to the COVID-19 pandemic, with people wanting to avoid crowded voting sites on the day of the election, instead opting to vote in-person in the weeks leading up to the election, or to cast their ballot by mail. All in all, it appears America is gearing up for a potentially historic voter turnout in today’s presidential election.

Last week, Lil Wayne sent the internet into pandemonium when he endorsed Donald Trump for president on Twitter, leading people to accuse the rapper of caring more about protecting his hordes of wealth than his fellow minorities, with John Legend even implying Weezy F must be in “the sunken place.” Other celebrities, like T.I. and Megan Thee Stallion, have been equally vocal in their support of Biden, encouraging their fans to head to the polls and vote for the Democratic presidential nominee, in what is sure to be one of the most momentous elections of all time. 

Scroll further to view the exhaustive list we’ve compiled, to see which celebrities we know have voted or plan to vote today, and who they are voting for, if we know– if we don’t know, they’re organized in Unknown, below.

Their rights have already been stripped away, and it will only get worse. We deserve a leader who at least tries to care for anyone other than himself. Vote for Joe Biden, period.”

“Support” is a meditation on what it feels like to work tirelessly for something you want, but not have the support you need to fully achieve it. Wyn Calico expresses the emotional burden of wanting to make a difference, believing in your purpose, and still moving forward when you hit setbacks. The song is not only about disappointment, but also a rallying cry of resilience in the face of adversity.

This song also highlights an important truth, there are many talented and hard-working people out there who have everything it takes to make a difference, except the encouragement and opportunity to flourish. Wyn Calico’s lyrics and delivery shine a light on that struggle and offer a sense of solidarity to those in similar situations.

“Support” isn’t just a personal statement. It’s a conversation starter. It encourages us to think about the value of community, support, and believing in each other. Wyn Calico’s latest drop is honest, relatable, and emotionally driven, a powerful reminder that even in the moments of isolation, the desire to keep pushing forward is still stronger than ever.

NNORDY steps into jazz fusion with latest release “Wrong Turn”

NNORDY

 

NNORDY’s latest release, “Wrong Turn” is a fully live jazz fusion album that showcases the limitless possibilities of instrumental storytelling with the remarkable chemistry between guitar, keyboards, bass, and drums. The song has no words but is an excellent story told through musicianship and sets the stage for listeners to embark on a rich jazz experience.

“Wrong Turn” shows the strength of live performance from the get-go. Each instrument feels alive and in conversation with the others, a dynamic dialogue that develops organically over the course of the piece. Without vocal guidance, each musical phrase is left to speak for itself, giving the listener the freedom to interpret the track in their own way.

The guitar and keyboards often lead, crafting complex melodic lines and textures that give the music direction and atmosphere. Meanwhile, the bass and drums lay down a solid rhythmic base, creating movement and momentum while still leaving a lot of room for exploration. NNORDY creates a track that both dedicated jazz fans and listeners looking for something adventurous and fresh will enjoy. “Wrong Turn” shows that instrumental music can be as expressive and compelling as vocal music.
