16 Rappers Who Are Still Supporting Donald Trump

Some of the biggest artists in hip-hop are still supporting former President Donald Trump despite his ongoing legal battles. In 2023, Trump was slapped with 34 felony counts for falsifying New York business records before the 2016 elections. Last August, he was indicted on 13 separate counts, including a racketeering charge and several fraud and false statement offenses in Fulton County, Ga. This past May, Donald Trump was found guilty on all 34 counts in his hush money trial in New York.

Nevertheless, several rappers are standing by their 2024 Republican presidential hopeful. In an interview with comedian Theo Von on his This Past Weekend podcast last October, Sexyy Red gave props to Trump for pardoning Lil Wayne and giving out stimulus checks while he was in office from 2017 to 2021.

Longtime supporter Kodak Black is still onboard with Donald Trump, too. In 2021, Trump pardoned Yak, who was serving a four-year prison sentence for a federal firearms charge. The rapper's time behind bars was a result of a May 2019 arrest. Kodak thinks people hate on Trump following the former President's own arrest this past April.

In the past, rappers such as Kanye West, Fivio Foreign and 6ix9ine have expressed their support for Donald Trump. Fivio just dropped a new song featuring Trump's past speeches. Even some of the current rap stars have shown their support for the Donald.

For example, New York drill rappers Sheff G and Sleepy Hallow welcomed Trump during a rally in the Bronx, N.Y. in May of 2024. During the event, the two rhymers went onstage and Sheff cosigned Trump. And the names continue to add up, including 42 Dugg who dropped some bars in support of The Donald in August of 2024.

So with that, XXL highlights the rappers who are still supporting Donald Trump. Take a look below.
