Jermaine Dupri questioned the duties of Vice President Kamala Harris and why she should be president, leading to social media mocking him thoroughly.

On Friday (August 23), the legendary producer and rapper Jermaine Dupri shared a video in a post on X, formerly Twitter, as he was out for a walk/jog to express his thoughts on Vice President Kamala Harris being named the presidential nominee at the Democratic National Convention the night before. While he feels the Democrats are doing “amazing” and conceded that Harris was in a strenuous position, he wondered what would be different if she were to be elected in November. “What makes y ‘all believe that she’s going to get this stuff done if she becomes president and she’s already in the house,” he asked.

The So So Def Records founder went on to share details from a conversation he had with Vice President Harris beforehand. “I asked her like as the vice president, why they don’t let her talk when, you know, Biden seems like he needs or he needed someone to speak up to him,” he said, claiming she told him her “hands were tied.” Dupri continued, “You know, I want to see how she, if she even touches on this, because if she doesn’t touch on it, that’s the question that I feel like the people that are, that have mixed decisions about voting for her, this is one of the questions,” stating it’s a major criticism from the Republican Party. The video would earn him some serious backlash on social media, with many making fun of his past split with superstar Janet Jackson and accusing him of being a Trump supporter. He would agree to a discussion with journalist Roland Martin after he reached out to him.

In the Instagram Live conversation, Dupri began: “I’m not a Republican, alright? Let’s be clear: I am with Kamala Harris. Let’s be clear. And I feel like a lot of y’all was just talking s**t ‘cause y’all thought that I was on the other side,” adding “Everybody knows that she’s in the White House, so she has to continue to support what’s happening in the White House right now.” The former News One Now host concurred, saying: “You have more freedom to speak as a U.S. Senator or a House member than you do as a vice president.”
