Taylor Swift, Chappell Roan, Kendrick Lamar Make DNC State Roll Call

DJ Cassidy brought the music of Taylor Swift, Chappell Roan, Kendrick Lamar, and more to Tuesday night's DNC state delegate roll call.


As much as we were psyched for what Atlanta rapper Lil Jon and the delegates from Georgia gave us on Tuesday night during the Democratic National Convention's (DNC) state delegate roll call, a whole ton of respect needs to go to DJ Cassidy and the folks who put the vent together because the road to officially declaring Vice-President Kamala Harris and Gov. Tim Walz the party's nominees for this fall's POTUS election was a party from beginning to end. Each state and territory had its own intro music – and as was the case with Georgia and quite a few others, they were going to make the most of it. It was a wide selection of music, including Taylor Swift, Kansas, Earth, Wind & Fire, Chappell Roan, The Romantics, Kendrick Lamar, and many, many more.
