The Hip-Hop Community Reacts to Donald Trump Winning

There's no doubt that hip-hop played a large role in this year's presidential election, but perhaps not as big as many imagined.

From the beginning, rappers were using their platform to spread awareness and information. Run the Jewel's Killer Mike took then presidential hopeful Bernie Sanders out to lunch to the local Busy Bee in his hometown of Atlanta, Ga. before taking the stage at a rally with an impassioned call for equality.

G.O.O.D. Music president Pusha T has been vocal in his support of Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton, releasing a pro-Clinton T-shirt reading "Delete Your Account" and teaming up with Clinton for a contest to register voters. 

Last week, Jay Z organized a Get Out the Vote concert in the key state of Ohio for Hillary Clinton, recruiting Beyoncé, Chance the Rapper, J. Cole, and Big Sean as performers. Chance followed suit with his own free concert in his hometown of Chicago to help encourage voters, literally leading a parade of Americans to the polls.

Election day was filled with your favorite artists spreading their message to get out and vote across their social media platforms. Gucci Mane's Florida Memorial University speech where he said "I wish I had my right to vote" made the rounds while Ice Cube shared a selfie after hitting the polls early Tuesday morning.

Kodak Black even got in on the election action, endorsing Clinton from behind bars thanks to producer Dubba-AA who shared a clip of the pair's phone conversation. "Make sure you go out there and vote because every vote counts. Voting is a privilege," said Kodak. "If I was able to vote, I'd vote for Hillary. I believe she'll do a great job with our country. I'm Kodak Black and I approve this message."

However, all of the stumping by rap stars was not enough, as Donald Trump carried the day in a surprising upset. Check out the hip-hop community's reaction to the KKK's preferred candidate becoming President below.

Azealia Banks was happy that the "corporate white feminists" lost in a now-deleted Facebook post. 

Snoop Dogg was stunned:

John Legend expected the country to be asking for a refund.

Public Enemy's Chuck D was concise and powerful:

Macklemore thought about how a President Trump would affect his young daughter.
