In a heartfelt tribute to Kamala Harris and the power of women across the nation, Will.i.am, the celebrated artist from the Black Eyed Peas, has released an endorsement song titled “Yes She Can.” The song debuted on Sunday, just two days ahead of the U.S. presidential election, where Harris, the Democratic nominee, is facing off against the incumbent Republican candidate, Donald Trump.
With emotionally charged lyrics, “Yes She Can” highlights the importance of unity and resilience in a deeply divided America. The song opens with questions that reflect a broader sense of frustration: “Mama, what’s wrong with America? Why can’t we get along in America?” Will.i.am’s verses weave together poignant imagery, touching on themes of division and hope as they play alongside clips from the January 6 Capitol riot.
Emphasizing the strength in diversity, he continues, “We’re all immigrants, different characters, but together we can break down barriers.” He urges listeners to take action by voting—not just for themselves, but for their daughters, sons, spouses, and future generations. In a rallying call, the song’s chorus resounds with “Yes she can,” in tribute to Harris’s potential to make history.
The video for “Yes She Can” serves as a visual celebration of democracy and unity, featuring shots of citizens voting, the Statue of Liberty, and protesters holding up signs for women’s rights. Among the scenes is a young girl proudly waving an American flag, symbolizing the hope for a united future.

Will.i.am shared the video across social media platforms, including YouTube and Instagram, describing the project as a “call to action” and a promise of what’s possible when people come together for change. His post emphasizes that the song honors Kamala Harris’s journey, but also celebrates the countless “everyday heroes”—women who embody resilience, hope, and the “unstoppable spirit” of progress.
“This song is for mothers, single mothers, stepmothers, sisters, aunts, nieces, wives, best friends,” Will.i.am wrote. He paid tribute to women who serve as “fearless warriors, queens, CEOs, doctors, nurses, coders, scientists, astronauts, teachers, tutors, entrepreneurs, and, most importantly, the doorway to LIFE.” The song underscores his admiration for the contributions of women in every sphere and the power of their leadership.
With “Yes She Can,” Will.i.am aims to inspire voters to take part in shaping their country’s future, urging them to remember what’s at stake and to recognize the unique power and influence of women. The release arrives as both a timely political message and an anthem for hope and perseverance, resonating as a tribute to those pushing for positive change.
