Speaking on stage at the Tidal X 1015 concert at New York’s Barclays Center on Saturday (October 15), she implored the audience and those watching online to use their voices in the election. “Please go out and vote this November. So many people have died and sacrificed so much for us to have our voice, we have to use it. Get in formation. Use our voices to do something great for our children.”
