Millionaires complaining about billionaires made me chuckle.

I hope the tour bombs. Figuratively speaking.

*Free suicide bombing included

Scary thought though is that this legitimately is a valid threat.

Im beginning to wonder is his promoters/managers hoodwinked Ed for this purpose alone. This has to be the best thing to happen to him in a decade. This seems to have been his plan all along to create drama to drum up some biz

No Riyadh?

Funny how the main folks supporting palestinians are white liberals.

One hit wonder.

Thrift Shop

To fans he is now "on the right side of history," no sell out, "firmly on the side of truth and humanity," "rich in morals and values," "has his priorities straight," and "can't be bought."

The best thing to happen in the world of social media is, well, anything, but negative news gets the feels going and the wallets opening.

Odds are he'll make more now than he would've as an opening act.

Worse case scenario is his name is out there (see F16) when before even people like me who listened to his early songs, forgot he existed, and thanks to social media, even people like him can bounce back from this.

Forget Palestine. I want to know how he feels about Buffalo and Rusk.

What is this "Palestine" he is referring to? I do not see it on the map or on Google Earth.

also key to note that Macklemore has been essentially irrelevant since he split with Ryan Lewis. it is telling he has not had a major (or even notable minor) hit since then. Guess we know who the main talent in that relationship was.

I would expect that Macklemore's team of jewish agents would have dropped him by now if palestine was a legit concern.

Pay no attention to this garbage.

Free Ed Sheeran. Just kidding. He is also a faker, shedding "white tears" while kissing woke a** and equating Israeli defense with October 7th.

Both are better than Palestine, but don't look for either to go very deep in the playoffs this year.

Palestine was free to live in Gaza, but they chose to be led by a terrorist organization. And still do.

Maybe they should work with Israel to get rid of Hamas and then they would be free.

Billionaires are the only reason he has a job. From the production of his albums to his promotion, to his concerts could only happen for billionaires. And the guy is worth about 30 million himself. Is he upset at Taylor Swift and Beyonce for them being billionaires?

Maybe if he wasn't an antisemitic Nazi-like piece of garbage it wouldn't have happened. supposedly, he even puts on masks sometimes with really big noses. Rants about Jews like Hitler. And then seeing Ed Sheeran apologize for this piece of filth?

Of course not.

Cowards don't do things like that.

When all this first started being reported, I wondered what the hell a Macklemore even was. So I looked it up. No wonder I never heard of him, I don't tend to know much about rappers nor anyone who goes by only one name.

AFAIK, he's a one-hit wonder ("Thrift Shop").

So there was this guy pretty much known only as Elvis, this woman named Cher, another woman named Madonna, a guy called Bono, this guy called Prince, another woman named Beyonc, and those are just off the top of my head.

Anyone else got others to add and keep it going?

Odd deal. Seems like he hung Ed Sheeran out to dry...Sheeran is a massive artist and I would guess most Americans could not name a single Macklemore song other than Thrift Shop from over a decade ago. I would think being invited to tour with Sheeran would have been a career boost for Macklemore.

But instead, he used the platform Sheeran gave him to get political, blew up Sheeran's tour, got a bunch of publicity, and now doing his own mini tour.

Generally, I am fine with people speaking their mind, but using a concert, especially as an opening act people are NOT paying money to see, to get preachy and political is lame as hell.

Must not have been a very big "one hit."
