So many celebrities are getting out there this Election Day and using their voices for good, Frank Ocean is one of them! The normally reclusive R&B singer returned today for a new episode of his blondedRADIO encouraging people to get to the polls. During the episode, titled “blonded Midterms pt. 1,” he tells listeners to vote in today’s midterm elections and decides to give them some incentive .
As part of his get-out-the-vote campaign, Ocean is giving away free merch in Houston, Miami, Atlanta, and Dallas to those who head to the polls today and bring proof to the pop up locations. He posted a flyer to his Tumblr page announcing the news. The flyer reads, “Bring proof (a ballot stub) that you voted to any of the locations below and get some free merch. Because God bless America,” reads the flyer. The merch includes white tees with an abstract blue graphic and the number “42%” written in large type. Forty-two percent stands for the percentage of the U.S. population that doesn’t vote. Check out some pictures fans posted on Twitter below:
