Several Black male celebrities back Trump, while Harris faces challenges with Black men.

Numerous Black male celebrities have declared their backing for the Republican presidential candidate, ex-President Trump.

As election day approaches, the Harris campaign is facing challenges with Black men, as Trump is gaining support from a group that has traditionally been loyal to the Democratic Party.

A recent New York Times/Siena College poll shows that Vice President Kamala Harris' support among Black voters has decreased since the 2020 presidential election. In 2020, Harris won approximately 90% of the Black vote, but this has since dropped to 78%. Additionally, Harris' support among Black men has dropped even more significantly, from 85% in 2020 to 70% in the latest poll.

According to an NCAAP survey, 25% of Black men under 50 indicated they would back Trump in the 2024 election.

Numerous attempts by Harris to gain support from men and Black America have been met with warnings from male commentators such as Charlamagne Tha God and Eddie Griffin that it may not succeed, as Trump has a unique appeal to Black men.

Several notable Black male entertainers and athletes have backed Trump during this campaign.

Lord Jamar

Recently, Lord Jamar from the hip-hop group Brand Nubian expressed his support for Trump in an interview.

Jamar, a rapper, producer, and actor from shows like "The Sopranos," criticized Harris and her supporters and praised Trump's leadership.

Jamar, a founding member of Brand Nubian, stated in an interview with "The Art of Dialogue" last week that this woman is not qualified to run a Dunkin' Donuts or a 7-Eleven, let alone the United States of America.

"Let's keep it real like Trump. First of all, there were no wars during his presidency, right? There were no wars happening while he was in office. This guy was doing some pretty gangster stuff, just like the Taliban, showing them pictures of their homes from a satellite," he said.

Jamar stated that he is one of many Black Americans who do not support Harris in reality.

"The sentiment on the street in the real world is that many people are not taking this woman seriously. They can see right through her, and they're trying to blame it on Black men, but in reality, I see a lot of Black women who are also not impressed with her."

Kodak Black

Kodak Black, a 27-year-old rapper, has been a devoted Trump supporter since the former president granted him a pardon in 2021. He also made appearances at Trump's campaign rallies during his bid for reelection in 2024.

Kodak, a Florida native, released a supportive song titled "Fivio Foreign" that incorporated excerpts from Trump's past speeches.

The Haitian rapper, who identified himself, appeared to be angry at Trump after the GOP nominee repeated unfounded rumors that migrants had been eating pets and animals during the last presidential debate.

"During the second presidential debate in September, Trump stated that in Springfield, the people who arrived were consuming the cats of the residents."

The attention of the townspeople in Springfield, Ohio, was drawn to the comments made in response to the recent influx of Haitian migrants.

"Kodak stated, "We are not voting for anything. I am not lying, Haitians, we have come too far. We have come too far, homie... We are not accepting any slander against Haitians.""

In September, just days after Kodak's remarks, the rapper attended a Trump rally in Uniondale, New York and took photos with Trump supporters.

Antonio Brown and Le'Veon Bell

On Saturday, at a rally in Latrobe, Pennsylvania, Pro Bowl players Antonio Brown and Le'Veon Bell from the former Pittsburgh Steelers joined Trump onstage.

Wearing a red MAGA hat, Brown shouted, "Let's vote for Trump! Let's make some noise for the president!"

Go vote Trump, you already know, Bell said.

The crowd followed Brown as he led them in a "Here we go Steelers" chant.

The former NFL player has frequently expressed his support for Trump and often discusses the GOP presidential candidate on X.

Harris is frequently criticized by Brown, who left the Steelers in 2018 to join the Raiders.

On Thursday, Brown posted on X about his experience at the rally, stating, "It's time to bring about genuine change."

Lawrence Taylor

Lawrence Taylor, a legendary player for the New York Giants, appeared at a Trump campaign rally in Wildwood, N.J., on May 11.

On the Jersey shore, in front of a crowd of 40,000 people, Taylor discussed his departure from the Democratic Party.

"I was raised as a Democrat and have always identified as one until I met this man," Taylor declared to applause. "My family will never vote for a Democrat again."

In the NFL, L.T. is highly respected as the greatest linebacker of all time.

Herschel Walker

Former NFL running back Herschell Walker is another well-known backer of Trump.

Walker, a former all-American football running back, played in the NFL for 12 seasons and previously played for the USFL league, which was backed by Trump, who also owned the league's New Jersey Generals franchise that Walker played for.

In 2022, Walker won the Republican Senate nomination in Georgia with a massive majority of the vote after receiving Trump's endorsement, but lost the general election to Democratic Sen. Raphael Warnock.

Recently, Walker criticized Obama for his comments about Black men not supporting Kamala Harris.

Don King

A video of Don King endorsing Trump was posted on Instagram by Trump's campaign team.

"King urged Cleveland residents to re-elect him in order to save themselves, stating that a vote for Trump was essentially a vote for oneself."

King added, "Eliminating the system of lies and the creation of wrong being right and right being wrong is crucial. Only one with the courage to fight the system as it should be fought can accomplish this."

King, a 93-year-old South Florida resident, played a significant role in promoting two of Muhammad Ali's most iconic boxing matches, the "Rumble in the Jungle" and the "Thrilla in Manila," during his illustrious career.

He joined Trump on the campaign trail in 2016.

Mike Tyson

Mike Tyson has been a supporter of Trump since the beginning of his 2016 presidential campaign.

His recent comments on the election regarding Trump were positive towards the GOP presidential candidate.

According to Tyson, Trump will win, as he stated on the "It Is What It Is" podcast on September 20, which featured former rappers Mase and Cam'ron.

"Do you want that person to win?" Cam'ron asked on the podcast.

"Tyson replied, "Yeah, it'd be nice if he wins, yeah." He added, "I have my reasons [for wanting him to win]... He is just a good man. Listen, I don't agree with all his s--t. Nobody agrees with all my s--t, but you know, they [are] good people. No one is perfect in this world. Everybody got their s--t, you know.""

Mase, a rapper turned preacher, stated that he is "conservative" and "likely supports Trump."

In the early stages of his boxing career, Tyson frequently boxed at Trump's hotels.

50 Cent

Although 50 Cent had not endorsed Trump, he explained why people like him are drawn to the GOP candidate after his response to the first assassination attempt.

In an interview about his new book "The Accomplice," Jackson stated that he wanted to avoid discussing his stance on the 2024 election and preferred to stay out of it.

Trump's iconic image of raising his fist after being shot resonated with Jackson.

"He says to fight. Alright. And that's precisely what I did after being shot. I simply switched into fight mode," he stated. "People can relate to it in that way."

50 Cent had previously considered supporting Trump, but Jackson later stated in June that he believed Black men were identifying with Trump because of RICO charges.

He stated earlier this year, "Although I believe Trump will be president again, I won't openly declare it."
