*Kiana Ledé* has shared her politically charged version of P!nk's 'Mr. President'.

Heading straight back into the studio with producer Michael Woods, the pair attempted to channel their feelings watching the recent protests.

Labelled Trump "a symbol of racism" she urges fans to vote in the upcoming Presidential election, while all proceeds from the song go towards the NAACP Empowerment Programs.

Kiana Ledé comments...

"All net proceeds from the song are being donated to the NAACP Empowerment Programs, which fights for social justice, voter participation, quality education and much more..."
