Kinda crazy how out of all rappers with mainstream success it's Macklemore who's been most vocal about this s*** lately

Wish his music was better but he a dope Human

Real

looking back, he’s always been very vocal about his stances

Black rappers many of them can’t afford to be or don’t care . When they have been vocal like Lupe or Vic they wind up getting cooked for something else . They are told don’t be political just rap

Valid

He always has had that sense of his heart being in the right place even if sometimes like the Kendrick text was a cringe moment u can see he was trying to move in a considerate direction

Immortal technique real as f*** but not going to get mainstream to listen to him

I haven't kept up with much of his public stances so i believe you

But i mean these topics will definitely cost you more as an artist than his previous stances i'm sure

Immortal Technique too real

Yah the music cringe but can't hate the intention

It is slightly funny to me that he had a show scheduled for Dubai this year

Macklemore such a tool lmao

Good soul and sometimes that matters more than bad soul and good music.
Also in general I don’t listen to most white rappers .

I am traditionalist in the sense of I don’t go to a Korean spot to have Jamaicans making it in back . I don’t go to a jerk chicken spot and it’s all Mexicans in back

I like whoever culturally made it being the delivery
There are of course cases like Mac miller where it works but it’s often not for me personally

“Our individual liberation IS Palestinian liberation. IS Sudanese liberation. IS Congolese liberation.”

For what reason . This is him literally choosing to not be a tool for something he disagrees with

language of my world a dope underground classic

I really genuinely can’t get into white rap and I’m not even joking

Beastie boys , Jon Wayne , Aesop rock cool

Great guy

at that level shows be getting scheduled months even year in advance in all fairness.

I'm bias cause he gettin one of the brothas from the city in his touring band paid

Mac Miller nice too though

the fact you say this and follow up with aesop rock is killing me

The nicest
