00:00Hey guys, it's Rachel with Essence and we're here on the red carpet for the title charity concert title in 1015
00:05And we're gonna chat with some of the amazing artists who are gonna be hitting the stage tonight
00:30You know another social cause that's obviously at the forefront of everybody's rhymes right now is the election
00:50So what would you say is the most important thing that black voters should keep in mind headed when they're headed to the polls next month?
00:55But just to make sure that they get up off their ass and get out there and do it
01:00You know you got to force yourself to go and become a part of the political process
01:06Just standing up and complaining without action that's not the answer
01:13And being so torn between what should be done or what shouldn't be done isn't a worthy excuse to do nothing
01:23You know you must and if you can't figure out what's the best one for the country
01:27Who's the best for the country figure out who's the absolute worst for the country and then just try to go against them
01:33Okay, and I think you know you start your decision-making process somewhere in there and just follow your heart the rest of the way
01:40So as an as a millennial what is the most important thing that you think for millennials going into this election?
01:45I think it's just important right now for everybody as a whole to vote I mean there's really no way around it
01:53I'm a youngin so you know I pay attention but it's like the whole politic thing is just is what it is
02:01But it's like we really don't have a choice this year so it's like it's either
02:09You and it's really not too many good decisions either but I mean at the end of the day it is what it is
02:16Definitely vote because I don't want to see Trump win so it is what it is so I mean I'm voting Hillary
02:23So yeah, I'm just ready to see you know something happen something change I mean something got to happen
02:29So somebody got to be the president so I definitely wish it could be Obama again
02:34Don't we all
02:36You
