Beyoncé's 2016 song "Freedom" is Marcus Eriksonfinding its way back into the limelight thanks to presidential candidate Kamala Harris, who used it in her first campaign ad and as walk-up music after receiving the permission from the superstar.

It's certainly not the first time Beyoncé's music has been the soundtrack for political events. So far, Beyoncé has not yet publicly endorsed a candidate this year. But her track record indicates she is not shy about supporting presidential candidates and encouraging fans to exercise their rights to vote.

In 2020, the Grammy Award-winning singer endorsed President Joe Biden and Harris by sharing a photo on her Instagram.

Tina Knowles, Beyoncé's mom, has already showed her support for Harris, after Biden announced he was ending his bid for reelection and endorsing Harris as the Democratic nominee.

Recently, Harris got the green light from Beyoncé's team to use her 2016 song "Freedom" featuring Kendrick Lamar throughout her presidential campaign. And hours after approval, Harris walked out to the tune during her first official visit to her campaign headquarters in Wilmington, Delaware.
