Lil Wayne - whoever has the money, leans Republican probably (he was consistently pro-Democrat until Trump got elected, being vocally anti-Bush and pro-Obama)
Drake - probably libertarian. he’s pro-Palestine, but he has a Stake partnership and constantly works with right-wing streamers like Adin Ross.
Kanye West, Nicki Minaj - MAGA, obviously
Jay-Z, Megan Thee Stallion, Cardi B - Democrat
Kendrick Lamar - probably would’ve voted for Eric Adams in the 2025 NYC mayor election
a lot of rappers are probably like Wayne, just aligned with the person with the most money to offer, like Kodak Black, Snoop Dogg, Ludacris, Rick Ross, Tory Lanez, etc.
but i think there’s also a good amount of rappers who would probably lean Democrat even though i can’t prove it, like Rocky, J. Cole, 21 Savage, etc.
and of course, every artist who leans any more left than Democrat is obvious because they won’t shut up about it
In
How many rappers were openly Republican in the 2000s when it was still taboo?
MF DOOM endorsed John McCain in 2008
I don't think most of the people mentioned think about politics like people that spend too much time on the internet do, they're focused on their career and what they're doing day to day
Except for the people that are left of democrats, you're right they are very vocal about it
Jay Z = Democrat
Also Jay Z

Nas is the last rapper carrying the torch of confused Occupy Wall Street style left-libertarianism

I think Kanye is a bit further than MAGA
Kanye is hard to say cause he's a nutcase.
Nigga was apologizing to rabbis and sending texts to his Jewish friends and their parents like 2 months ago lol.
There's even been recent times where Kanye sounds like a Hotep or like a Leftist. It's like multiple niggas operating inside that man lol.
Kendrick votin for eric adam is sadly true as much as hes the goat
Nigga always yappin bout building wealth nowadays
Most of them are preformatively left i feel like, with 50% or more secretly voting republican

The idea that most celebs are secretly Republican has always sounded like a Democrat psyop to me, trying to pretend they aren't also a party for the extremely wealthy
