Musical artists set to sparkle as Kamala Harris comes to final stops in her campaign for president in Pennsylvania.

Music and musical artists have had a profound impact on the presidential campaigns of both Donald Trump and Kamala Harris this year. Whether it be hip-hop and country star Kid Rock performing at the Republican National Convention supporting Trump or international pop star Tayler Swift endorsing Harris.

Harris is set to end her bid for the White House Monday night, the eve before Election Day on Tuesday and part of the end of that campaign Monday will involve a notable roster of musicians.

Harris will spend Monday largely focusing on the battleground state of Pennsylvania with its many electoral college delegates up for grabs. The “Get Out The Vote” organizational events will involve rallies in both Pittsburgh and Philadelphia and the Harris campaign is bringing out the star power in terms of musical artists pitching in to help her campaign.

Early Monday evening, Harris will arrive in the Steel City to pump up the final hours of her campaign and in that rally a trio of musical stars will help cheer her on. Three big-name musicians will be on hand for the Pittsburgh event including D-Nice, Katy Perry and Andra Day.

Harris will also be traveling with Second Gentleman Doug Emhoff. While Harris will be physically present at the Pennsylvania events, they are part of a larger coordinated effort in six other states Monday night.

“The events are part of a series of simultaneous organizing events the campaign is holding in all seven battleground states to capture grassroots enthusiasm and to mobilize voters ahead of Election Day,” a Harris campaign news release said.

Harris will finish up the night Monday in Philadelphia. The musical artist lineup in the City of Brotherly Love is more extensive than the roster for Pittsburgh. DJ Cassidy, Fat Joe, Freeway and Just Blaze, Lady Gaga, DJ Jazzy Jeff, Ricky Martin, The Roots, Jazmine Sullivan and Adam Blackstone are all set to attend the Philly event and talk show host and cultural icon Oprah Winfrey is also scheduled to speak before the crowd there.

“These artists and public figures are trusted voices for millions of Americans, who listen to their music, follow them on social media, or otherwise are inspired by them. The Harris-Walz campaign believes that by using their voices to lay out the stakes of this election, it will further encourage and mobilize people to go vote,” the Harris campaign said in the news release.

        Good evening America,
        I, EARL PITTS AMERICAN, believe that both Tay Tay & Okra Winfrey will have sudden last minute “Stuff” pop up which will prevent them from “Soiling” themselves by associating with “The Lost Cause” that is The Harris Administration “Part Two”
        The Sage “EARL PITTS AMERICAN” Has Spoken.
        Thank you, Beloved Un-Decided Voters, Dook 4 Brains Leftys, and Sage Patriots.

          “We are both so very sorry but we just realized that date falls on one of our “Major Wanking Days” we both know you will understand.
          And further more:

          Earl Pitts,
          I want to thank you old geezer for your continuous effort this election season to flush today’s GOP down the toilet and into the typical Florida leaking septic tank. You’ve done a marvelous service to exemplify the stupidity of Florida Republicans. Thanks again!

        NFL scheduled it like this for the big announcement: Taylor’s Boyfriend’s endorsement will be announced tonight.

        As soon as dipstick Trump figures out what’s happening tonight, he will issue statements making claims to Taylor’s Boyfriend same as he did with Taylor Herself whether she like it or not (and whoooooo eeeeeee, boy did she NOT like it)

        Turnip J Truck has only hisself to blame for Taylor’s Boyfriend’s endorsing VP Harris tonight on NFL’s Monday Night Football.

        It seems as if Turnip J Truck is the real sucker and loser. Not our veterans like he claims.

        Earl I dont think I ever thanked you for saveing me from the bullies in high school who beat me up for my lunch money and held me by my ankles over the toilet and flushed it saying I was getting another swirley. I used to hate school until you came along. You are my hero so thank you Earl.
        After discussing the deportation czar position with my wife I accept and look forward to serving under Don and you,

    It ain’t over till tonight’s Monday Night Football is over

    Chiefs will win again and Taylor’s Boyfriend endorses VP Harris.

    And the MAGAs will cry foul, it’s rigged, they’re cheating, no fair, it’s so unfair, once again, just like we said in 2020 and 2016 but then not 2016 because we won

    MAGAs, you chose their sports guy endorsement already, and let me be the first to say it: Hulk Hogan, You look Faaaaaaaaaabulous!
