My beliefs and opinions are influenced by people who are not blatantly bought and paid for, or ideologically captured.
I know this is hard for the BGOL (hive) mind to understand, where if enough black people say something is right, it must be right, and if you disagree you have to show a picture of your hand.
You're trying too hard and truly overthinking the situation.
What you said doesn't apply in this situation, you don't know that but we all do.
All The Big Performers At Trump’s Inauguration Events: Carrie Underwood, Village People, Nelly And More
Topline
Carrie Underwood will perform at President-elect Donald Trump’s second inauguration next week, and Village People—the band behind one of Trump’s favorite hits “Y.M.C.A.”—said they will perform at multiple pre-inauguration events, a shift from his 2017 inauguration, which struggled to attract high-profile performers.
Key Facts
Country music singer Carrie Underwood will perform “America the Beautiful” at Trump’s inauguration at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 20, shortly before the President-elect takes the oath of office.
Village People, the group behind “Y.M.C.A.,” which became a staple at Trump rallies during which the President-elect would perform what became known as the “Trump dance,” announced in a Facebook post it would perform at multiple inaugural events, reportedly including a “victory rally” scheduled for Sunday.
Another event Village People will perform at is an inaugural eve ball held Jan. 19 by conservative political organization Turning Point USA, which will feature guests including the group’s founder Charlie Kirk, Vice President-elect JD Vance, Tulsi Gabbard, Donald Trump Jr., Vivek Ramaswamy and Ben Shapiro.
Country singer Lee Greenwood—whose song “God Bless The U.S.A.” is another Trump rally staple—will perform during the swearing-in ceremony, according to the Associated Press.
Axios reported some other country music acts are scheduled to perform, including Jason Aldean and Rascal Flatts at Trump’s inaugural ball on Monday and Kid Rock and Billy Ray Cyrus at the “victory rally.”
Opera singer Christopher Macchio, who has performed at several Republican events, including Trump’s controversial 2024 Madison Square Garden rally, will sing the National Anthem at the inauguration, the singer’s management confirmed to multiple news outlets.
Rapper Snoop Dogg is expected to perform at the “Inaugural Crypto Ball,” the Wall Street Journal reported, on Jan. 17 at the Andrew W. Mellon Auditorium in Washington, D.C.
Country singer Gavin DeGraw will perform at the Starlight Ball on Monday, multiple news outlets reported, which Trump is expected to attend.
The Commander-in-Chief Ball, also taking place Monday with remarks from Trump, will feature a performance from country singer Parker McCollum.
Rapper Nelly will reportedly perform at Monday’s Liberty Inaugural Ball, at which Trump is expected to deliver remarks, CNN reported, citing sources familiar with the event.
Why Did These Artists Accept Invitations To Perform?
Both Underwood and Village People stressed the need for unity in statements about their upcoming performances. Underwood said she was “humbled to answer the call at a time when we must all come together in the spirit of unity and looking to the future.” In a Facebook post, Village People admitted the performances won’t please all their fans, but the group believes “music is to be performed without regard to politics.” The group acknowledged their “preferred candidate lost”—founding member Victor Willis previously said he supported Vice President Kamala Harris—but said they hope their song “Y.M.C.A.” can “bring the country together after a tumultuous and divided campaign.”
What Is Trump’s History With “y.m.c.a.”?
Trump has used Village People’s “Y.M.C.A.” at rallies throughout his 2020 and 2024 presidential campaigns, prompting a mixed response from the group. Willis appeared to have changed his stance over the years, first demanding Trump stop using the song in June 2020 after the then-president pledged to use military force to break up protests following the police killing of George Floyd. Three months later, a spokesperson for the group said Willis would not “sue him simply out of spite” because he is not a “Trump hater.” In May 2023, Village People’s manager and Willis’ wife, Karen Willis, sent a cease-and-desist condemning a Mar-a-Lago performance of “Y.M.C.A.” by performers dressed as the Village People, claiming it erroneously implied the band had endorsed Trump. In October 2024, Willis said he had previously opposed Trump’s use of the song but changed his mind because the renewed attention “greatly benefited” the song on the charts. During his rallies, Trump would often perform the “Trump dance” during “Y.M.C.A.,” a simple motion of pumping both fists back and forth to the music. The dance was widely mimicked by professional athletes to celebrate victories, including by San Francisco 49ers player Nick Bosa, a vocal Trump supporter, and U.S. men’s soccer team captain Christian Pulisic, who claimed it is “not a political dance.”
Key Background
Trump’s upcoming inauguration is shaping up to be more star-studded than his first inauguration, which struggled to attract high-profile performers. Then-16-year-old Jackie Evancho, “America’s Got Talent” runner-up in 2010, sang the National Anthem at Trump’s 2017 inauguration. Evancho later said her team pushed her to perform despite her having a “bad gut feeling,” and she criticized Trump’s transgender rights policies and asked him on social media to meet with her and her transgender sister, Juliet Evancho. Rock band 3 Doors Down and singer Toby Keith also performed at pre-inauguration events in 2017. Past inauguration performers have included Lady Gaga, Garth Brooks and Jennifer Lopez at President Joe Biden’s inauguration, and Beyoncé and Kelly Clarkson at former President Barack Obama’s 2013 inauguration.

I think a lot of these celebrities signed up mainly to kiss Trumps Ass.
Why?
The LA Wildfires.
A lot of these celebrities own properties that were either destroyed, damaged or in the path of wildfires.
These celebrities also have friends, family, agents, lawyers, writers, managers and other support people who have lost properties or properties were severely damaged or in the path of fires.
Good chance they asked these celebrities to go to Washington for Trump’s inauguration and “Kiss The Ring” and hopefully Trump will continue Federal assistance to California….
Now, anyone with good sense knows the Orange Moron doesn’t give 2 Fucks about anybody but himself.
Trump see’s people in the fires as “Suckers and Losers”.
These celebrities will FAFO like a lot of folks who voted for the Orange Moron.
Grab the popcorn…
I remember when Elton John was on "Soul Train" many years ago, so I can believe that.
Anybody who made good music back in the day was on Soul Train. Even David Bowie was on there.
On a related note, I say the CACs can have these dudes. Compared to all the talented musicians our people produced over the centuries, these rappers are basically dog shit on the pavement.
I get it
But im a little surprised
That man has integrity
Ok politics is one thing but...
It's not like snoop would build his decades long career on disparaging black women as simply hoes, hookers and b*tches to be pimped out.
Right?

This was interesting for a couple of reasons. First, he was actually singing instead of lip-synching, and he was actually playing. Many artists on "Soul Train" lip-synched and didn't fully play their instruments.
The funny part was that people on the show were trying to figure out how to dance to "Bennie and the Jets"; it's a song to listen to, but not necessarily to dance to. This was when people used to say "It's got a good beat, but you can't dance to it." When he played "Philadelphia Freedom", a (slightly) more danceable song, everyone felt more comfortable.
The melody does make you want to dance to it though. It reminds me of "Tell Me Something Good" by Chaka Khan and Rufus in a way. That's not a very danceable song either, especially compared to, say, disco songs, but you still want to move your body to it.This was interesting for a couple of reasons.

Thank you for reminding me how fine Chrisette Michelle is. Let's give this woman a break! She apologized! I want to bring her to the cookout! She can really sing too! Let her live!
I feel you on that. I would at least move my head or tap my feet.
Trump said last year that there's a definite anti-white feeling in the country and that the laws are unfair(meaning unfair to white people). ...and he's gonna do something about it. That combined with who his closest advisors are and what they've already started doing...
....but hey, nothing to see here, move along people....

Exclusive: Trump Says ‘Anti-White Feeling’ Is a Problem in the U.S.
"I think there is a definite anti-white feeling in this country and that can’t be allowed either," Trump tells TIME.
Brethren:
You are totally missing my point, sir. I did not say that their respective careers should be over; they still have to make a living. Sir, if you go do your research, you will find a video where Snoop spoke against Black performers who supported Donald Trump. There is also the “Lavender” video. Sir, I get why people are upset because it’s mixed messages. And yes, it’s about integrity.
That’s the issue the idiots that choose to not understand….I wonder if Kamala won, would Kid Rock or any of the other performers performing for trump would perform at her inauguration?
We all know the answer to that.
They really don’t get it.
Respect
But but what would white people do...who gives a fuck what they would do in the same situation..
You can tell Snoop is a descendant from the tribes that sold Africans to whites to be sold into slavery.
He been exhibiting behaviors of a sellout. Remember he was on Angie Martinez copping pleas to the point he had to sleep with butter knives balled up in his fist on the plane ride back to Cali cause he thought Pac and Sug were going to bomb on him.
Makes sense he will sell the entire race out now
Sad part is Ashanti has to get stared at motherfuckeredly from this point forward for breeding for Nelly.

The irony of the word coon dropped on this board when folks spends pages in a thread defending cooning and tap dancing. Snoop and Nelly are sellout coons just like COONdance Owens, Jason FatLock and Tim Scott. “He got a family to feed.” Dumbass, rich men don’t have bills; they have wants. Feeding their family is never a thought. “But, but, but…” Tap dancing-ass ninjas! ANY defense or Snoop or Nelly confirms your ignorance and willingness to eat racist taint when it’s your turn. You ninjas would do business with who slapped your mommas.
“But what if he…?” COON.
“He prolly was…” COON.
“Shiiiiiiiit, they was…” COON.
“Awwww, ninja, you just…” Extra COON.
You ninjas would attend a Freak Off And say it was “business”. calamitous coonery masked as intellect.

He didn't forget a damn thing. He supports and voted for Trump. Instead of standing on it he wants to make excuses.
