Hilary Clinton is not only beating Donald Trump handily in the polls right now, but also in the celebrity endorsements. She has made Jay Z change his tune on her and the "Dirt Off Ya Shoulder" rapper will now perform a concert aimed at black voters in Cleveland, Ohio to support Clinton.
Buzzfeed News first reported the news.
The concert will take place on Friday, Nov. 4, just four days before the election across the United States.
"Jay Z will be joined at the concert by special guests to encourage unity and urge Ohioans to support Clinton by voting early or on Election Day," says the Clinton camp in a statement via Buzzfeed.

This could be a major coup for the Clinton campaign that is fighting in key Midwestern "rust belt" battle ground states, such as Ohio. With only four days to go until the campaign, this could be the final reminder and push to get thousands of young African American and democratic-leaning voters out to the polls in Cleveland. Clinton would need a high turnout among this group to defeat Trump. She has led Trump by a large margin among minorities, but it remains to be seen whether or not she can get them to the polls. HOV may be the influence she needs for that.
This will be the first event Jay Z has performed for Hilary Clinton, but at his TIDAL x 1015 concert, many of the performers, such as Robin Thicke, Nicki Minaj and Beyoncé, all put their support behind Hilary Clinton and reminded the audience and those watching at home to go vote.
Bill Clinton made an appearance at Jay Z's Made In America festival over Labor Day.
Jay Z has also stumped for presidential candidates in the past. He performed with Bruce Springsteen to help re-elect President Obama in 2012 in Columbus, Ohio.
He won't be the only one performing in Ohio for the Clintons in November. The National also has a gig in Cincinnati on Nov. 2.
