The Heist is a killer album, that song aside, I haven’t listen to too much of his more recent stuff, the Hind’s Hall and Hind’s Hall 2 get played quite often. I’m waiting for him to team up with Lowkey for a song given Palestine is pretty important to him too.
IDK, Thrift Shop came out and I remember my crustier friends making something of it but it wasn’t my scene and I wouldn’t start reading books for another five years. I can’t think of another time he came into my media ecosystem until Hind’s Hall came out. I think that’s the source of a lot of people’s surprise.
pink put the issue into the mainstream when she reposted a StopAntisemitism story about this. then she “apologized” a week later which was even bigger news. she said something about how she’s scared of macklemore because she’s a “jewish mom” which i guess is the most anyone’s heard from her in years.
The current state of the culture wars are Ms. Rachel and Macklemore vs Ed Sheeran and Pink.
This is an actual timeline we live in
The only one I’m surprised by is macklemore
Really? I thought he pretty consistently was on the right side of things. But I don’t really pay attention.
He has been, not just on Palestine. But a lot of people just know him as “The Thrift Shop guy”
He also had a pretty popular song in support of gay marriage in the early 2010s
Supporting clothing reuse in the fight against fast fashion? Again, extremely correct

Macklemore has such incredibly strong
energy, so you would also expect him to have a lot of those views.
Mildly jarring that he is actually cool.
So he’s another case of “don’t judge a book by its cover”.

I haven’t heard anything about Pink in regards to it, what’s the story there?
