Waka Flocka Flame is riding with Donald Trump this presidential election. While performing in Utah earlier this week, the “No Hands” rapper instructed supporters of President Joe Biden to leave his concert.
“All Joe Biden voters, get out of my concert,” he said while on stage. “We going to see y’all at the bingo game. We’re gonna party right now for motherf–king president T24!”
The declaration drew a mixed reaction from the crowd before Waka cut through the awkwardness and moved into performing his “Grove St. Party” anthem.
Footage of Waka Flocka Flame went viral and he faced backlash from some fans on X. “We need a study done on why older rappers start using their platform to be loud and wrong,” one person wrote.

Another quipped: “Can waka name one thing from the trump administration?”
With 2024 being an election year, politics have been part of the pop-culture conversation, with Biden and Trump facing off in a debate last week.
Waka Flocka Flame pledged allegiance to Donald Trump in October 2023 when he changed his profile picture on X to him posing alongside 45.
The Bricksquad boss responded to critics blasting his support of Trump in a since deleted tweet shortly after posting the photo with DT. “I’m an not a politician and i don’t wanna talk politics… i only answer to the people that made me and that’s my FANS aka THE PEOPLE… i love y’all with every bone in my body man Squaddd,” he wrote at the time.
The Trump administration is in Waka’s good graces after gifting him a lifetime achievement award for his contributions to the non-profit Daughter of Destiny.
“Lifetime Achievement Award. I gotta thank my pastor/big sister Apostle Dr. Bridget C. Outlaw for teaching and guiding me on this journey God got us on I’m just honored,” he captioned an Instagram post in April 2021. “S/O to my president!!!”
Earlier this year, Waka Flocka flame called for Trump to abolish Columbus Day if he returns to the Oval Office. “Dear Trump abolish Christopher Columbus Day,” the Atlanta resident tweeted in January. “As a what’s called Blackman in United States this holiday is a spit in our faces… Thanks from Waka Flocka Flame and the People!!!”
Another rapper who has pulled away from Biden is previous supporter Cardi B. However, she promised fans she would never join the Republican party. “I will never turn republican lol,” she assured on X earlier this week.
President Biden’s lackluster performance in the debate against Trump on June 27 drew criticism from the Democratic party, and some politicians are even calling for him to step aside in the presidential race.
