Uncle Luke Announces Congressional Run, Calls Out Community Focus

Luther “Uncle Luke” Campbell is campaigning for Congress, officially announcing his run to represent Florida’s 20th District.

In a series of online posts, Campbell described himself as a “born fighter” and “community servant,” emphasizing his long-standing advocacy for underserved communities in South Florida. “This campaign is about the communities that built South Florida and deserve real leadership,” he said.

Campbell also made a lighthearted reference to JAY-Z, writing, “Jay-Z said he made a lot of millionaires… I got him by a mile. But I love him. That’s my guy.”

The former 2 Live Crew frontman has been active in community initiatives for years and is now seeking to translate that work into political leadership.
