Will.I.Am transforms into Trump in music video supporting Clinton

  

With the media circus swirling around the Donald Trump campaign, you'd think there would be more pop stars coming out to comment on the presidential race, but musicians have largely stayed out of the fray.

One exception, though, is singer/rapper Will.I.Am, who just dropped a song specifically addressing Trump's offensive comments regarding women.

The music video, posted by Funny or Die, is titled "GRAB'm by the PU$$Y," a reference to Trump's comments to Billy Bush that were captured on tape years ago and were recently revealed to the media. Will.I.Am appears in costume, dressed to look like Trump, and engages in a verbal back and forth with singer Liane V.

Blacked Eyed Peas group member Apl.de.ap then joins the pair and adds a strong rap verse to the tune.

And just when you're expecting one last verse, Will.I.Am stops the music and appears as himself, directly addressing the camera while condemning Trump's candidacy and appealing to voters to support Hillary Clinton.

It's not the greatest song or the most sophisticated political message. But in a year in which few musicians -- Republican or Democrat -- have made strong public stands in favor of a candidate, Will.I.Am's move just added a good deal of credibility to his non-musical efforts in the community.
