Former President Donald Trump has reportedly been invited to attend rapper Waka Flocka Flame’s concert in Miami, Florida, in the coming weeks, as he continues to garner support from the rap community.
Florida’s Voice reporter Michael Costeines, citing unnamed sources, broke the news of the invitation for the June 14 concert, which coincides with Trump’s birthday:
No specific details were yet given, but two sources have told Florida’s Voice that Trump and his team are in talks with organizers and that the concert is set to take place next month.
“We approached him because we knew that he had publicly supported President Trump, and we got a very quick response. He and his team jumped on it right away,” a source told Florida’s Voice. “They vocalized a few different issues that they explained opened Waka’s eyes to President Trump.”
The “Hard in Da Paint” rapper endorsed Trump back in October, ahead of the Republican nominating contests.
“TRUMP2024,” he wrote on X (formerly known as Twitter).
The reported invitation comes a day after Trump appeared alongside Brooklyn drill rappers Sheff G and Sleepy Hallow at a rally in the Bronx.
Other rappers have publicly expressed their support for him, either regarding the election or his legal battles.
Lil Pump endorsed Trump in 2020 and got a tattoo of Trump’s face on his thigh earlier this year.
Rapper Kodak Black, who Trump pardoned, defended the 45th president in April 2023 after Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg brought his 34-count indictment against Trump.
“I feel like these people are on some other sh*t,” Kodak Black said. “They’re gonna try to get Trump out the way cause Trump a stand-up nigga. Biden will let a nigga do anything.”
