On the second night of the 2024 Democratic National Convention in Chicago, the United Center was transformed into a pulsating celebration of politics, and that also included a surprise performance by crunk legend Lil Jon. The high-energy DJ and rapper took the stage in a dynamic display of showmanship, energizing the crowd and adding an unexpected twist to the convention’s roll call.
As Georgia was introduced, Lil Jon emerged from the audience with a bang, delivering a thrilling rendition of his 2014 hit, “Turn Down for What.” The audience roared as he punctuated the performance with his iconic “YEAHHHH!” catchphrase, setting an electrifying tone for the night. Lil Jon’s excitement wasn’t just about the music; he used his platform to rally support for Kamala Harris, declaring, “Ladies and gentlemen, we are here tonight to officially nominate Kamala Harris for president. We’re not going back!”
Furthermore, the performance didn’t stop there. In a seamless transition, Lil Jon launched into a modified version of his 2004 classic “Get Low,” playfully adapting the lyrics to celebrate Vice President nominee Tim Walz. “To the windowwww, to the Walz!” he rapped, further fueling the crowd’s enthusiasm and adding a layer of fun to the proceedings.
The night also featured appearances from influential speakers such as former President Barack Obama, First Lady Michelle Obama, and Douglas Emhoff, Kamala Harris’ husband. Their speeches, coupled with Lil Jon’s spirited performances, created a vibrant and memorable atmosphere that underscored the convention’s celebratory spirit.
