Macklemore, "Same Love"

his outfit on snl is clearly not from a thrift shop tho

also you can find nice clothes at thrift shops its not just some stupid joke

i mean you can dess like a fool for not that much money is not a v good critique of consumerism

the distance between macklemore and mumfords or karmin seems awfully short. cheerful, encouraging, seemingly well-adjusted happytimes homeowner music for people who like to barbecue and hold babies and go to hot yoga and make car payments on time. nothing really wrong with it, except that it makes my skin crawl.

who doesn't like barbeque

boy i sure do hate homeowners

ooooh you mean people who barbeque and hold babies and do yoga at the same time, phew *wipes brow*

Thought this was the privilege meme thread for a sec

hey, i get weirded out by nice things. it's nothing i'm particularly proud of, but that doesn't change the situation.

macklemore is ill-suited to curmudgery

I don't mind Karmin

Macklemore can die in a fire tho

I don't mind Karmin

.....

we live in a world where Drake is making bank, in that landscape Karmin is the definition of "lesser of two evils"

if you watch the snl performance on mute and with no prior knowledge of macklemore you will very possibly mistake it for an snl performance from the early 90s

there is no greater evil than karmin, not even macklemore

ya drake is mozart to those two

Karmin ia irritating but I can detect talent there; call it the Jessie J Effect

the Karmin version of "Started From The Bottom" is better than the original, or at least more hilariously trolly

i don't know where you guys come from saying that it's terrible thin music... i would probably like the song if not for the brats who perform it. knowing how insufferably turdy macklemore and ryan lewis are causes me a great deal of anguish like noooo why do i have to hate this soooong

p.s. i also say "mac-ull-more" but i think the argument for "mac-le-more" might come from vintage seattle mariners utility player mark mclemore (mac-le-more), who our boy is supposedly named after

wow that is a name i have not heard in forever

i've had this fucking song in my head all day and i've wanted to cut my head off all day, can we please just close this thread

catchiness can often be an indicator of quality but not when it makes you wish you were never born

catchiness is an indicator of the quality of catchiness

I heard the new Macklemore single and thought it was B.o.B. at first

What's the deal with B.o.B. anyway? All I know about him is that he raps on "Airplanes," and I like that tune.

he's a clown

he might be the most recent chart-topper that i've completely forgotten about

so this is a p standard shitty article about racism with one interesting/unintentionally hilarious + sad fact:

http://www.tcdailyplanet.net/news/2013/04/19/racial-mockery-hopkins-high-sparks-outrage-black-student-handcuffed

The incident began on Feb. 13; when eight to 10 white members of the school's ski team came to school dressed in motley ensembles of do-rags, fur coats, white tank top undershirts, sagging pants and gold chains. One even had a fake marijuana joint tucked behind his ear. Somehow word spread that the students were celebrating a "Ghetto Spirit Day." Those who came to school in costume dispute this assertion, and claimed to school administrators that they were dressing up to mimic popular white rapper, Macklemore, who sings "Thrift Shop."

I dunno, the whole repeatedly being sanctimonious towards black people in his lyrics thing gives me a special hate-on towards him

wait, this guy has MORE songs with casual racism? ugh.

I - I - I'm hunting, looking for a come-up

One man's trash, that's another man's come-up

Is "come-up" a real phrase or is he trying to make it happen?

tis a rare thing when someone can establish themselves as less aware of entry level slang than macklemore, let's all politely look away in embarrassment

the weather sure did turn cold today

although granted it's unacceptable that macklemoose puts it in the song twice, neither time really in the way anyone else would use it xp

Nah you're forcing it, there are enough reasons to clown Macklemore without picking that shit out.

Well how should it be used? I've never heard it before, but it sounded really awkward.

second quote should be some dude's second post, obviously.

I like it better this way, it's like a superior version of Amanda Palmer's Dzhokhar Tsarnaev poem

you don't know how to use the phrase "come up"

In the usage "to come up", yeah. But I've never heard "a come-up", which is what Macklemoo is doing here.

when used as a noun it's usually "on the come-up" (or "creepin on ah come up" in bone thugs terms)

Oh ok. I never listened to Bone Thugs! I guess it has some legitimacy. It sounds really weird, especially the way he lets it out there twice in the same song.

i hope this will explain it once and for all from the website urbandictionary.com
