They are unambiguously positive things. I don't think that makes the song any good.

so forks just pointed out the existence of the song "My Dick" by 3OH!3 on another thread and, after listening to that and looking back at "White Privilege II", things could be SO MUCH WORSE

Yeah, it coulda been "White Dick"

/Macklemore may be looped in with the likes of Miley Cyrus and Iggy Azalea when it comes to criticism surrounding the appropriation of black culture, but he's making a clear point today in separating himself from them.

In fact, the rapper just dropped his latest song with Ryan Lewis called "White Privilege II"—a follow-up to the original 2005 track "White Privilege"—in which he not only expresses his determination to rally behind the black community, but he also calls out both Cyrus and Azalea for their lack of attention to the people they "stole" their music from./

Agreed! I was asking to see just how committed this community is to giving dude even the teensiest tiniest shred of credit for anything at all.

Damn that's crazy

rockpalast '82 (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Sunday, 1 May 2016 15:12 (seven years ago) link

it's at 80k now but still pretty dire

some dude, Sunday, 1 May 2016 15:16 (seven years ago) link

can't wait until the music industry bubble finally bursts and we learn the last CD actually sold was in 1998

AdamVania (Adam Bruneau), Sunday, 1 May 2016 15:18 (seven years ago) link

Adele just sold 5 million CDs but that's definitely the last time that will ever happen

some dude, Sunday, 1 May 2016 15:38 (seven years ago) link

sold them to an unmarked warehouse

AdamVania (Adam Bruneau), Sunday, 1 May 2016 15:40 (seven years ago) link

yeah if macklemore was around in the mid 1990s he'd probably have sold like 20 million records

i guess that's what you call cosmic justice

wizzz! (amateurist), Sunday, 1 May 2016 19:00 (seven years ago) link

perhaps he will mackle less now

μpright mammal (mh), Sunday, 1 May 2016 23:34 (seven years ago) link

i mean he probably should, i feel

flappy bird, Monday, 2 May 2016 00:20 (seven years ago) link

"mackle less"

About 2,170 results (0.48 seconds)

"mackleless"

About 6,750 results (0.56 seconds)

This doesn't feel right. I would have thought way more. Am I spelling something wrong?

how girl's (how's life), Monday, 2 May 2016 00:32 (seven years ago) link

shit, there were probably that many results on a given day on Twitter

μpright mammal (mh), Monday, 2 May 2016 01:34 (seven years ago) link

was thinking the same

lag∞n, Monday, 2 May 2016 01:41 (seven years ago) link

Opposite to macklemore is macklebeg u ignorant yanks

Daithi Bowsie (darraghmac), Monday, 2 May 2016 08:06 (seven years ago) link

I just assumed most of Macklemore's fanbase have moved on to other things like Twenty One Pilots or Hamilton.

MarkoP, Monday, 2 May 2016 13:27 (seven years ago) link

Deservedly in both cases.

Minneapolis date tickets just popped up on Groupon, ouch

rockpalast '82 (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Sunday, 5 June 2016 00:27 (seven years ago) link

that is exquisite

lag∞n, Sunday, 5 June 2016 05:02 (seven years ago) link

Seriously? Even here he's playing a relatively small place, not typically befitting a multiplatinum superstar. Wow, I guess that's not sold out either? Ouch. Which buyer's remorse is worse, him or Iggy?

Josh in Chicago, Sunday, 5 June 2016 14:36 (seven years ago) link

haha okay I know this was originally annnounced as a Target Center show (where the Timberwolves play) now it's at the "U.S. Bank Theater at Target Center"

U.S. Bank Theater[edit]
Target Center can convert into a 2,500-to-7,500-seat theater known as the U.S. Bank Theater. The Theater contains a moveable floor-to-ceiling curtain system that allows the venue to be transformed based on specific show needs. In addition to concerts, the U.S. Bank Theater can also be used for family and Broadway shows.[24]

aka your show sold shit

"Thrift Shop" rewrite: "Groupon Deal"

Now I Know How Joan of Arcadia Felt (C. Grisso/McCain), Tuesday, 7 June 2016 21:11 (seven years ago) link

...or the Weird Al version. Did he do a Macklemore already?

Now I Know How Joan of Arcadia Felt (C. Grisso/McCain), Tuesday, 7 June 2016 21:12 (seven years ago) link

He just put Thrift Shop into a polka, which is what he usually does when he can't figure out good parody ideas for popular songs.

I'm gonna scalp some tix

i saw him a few years ago and it wasn't terrible in the context of how i imagined i would feel about a macklemore concert

J0rdan S., Tuesday, 7 June 2016 22:31 (seven years ago) link

same. saw him in a 1000-cap shithole just before he broke big and he was pretty enjoyable. but i def pass for a Macklepologist around here

alpine static, Tuesday, 7 June 2016 22:36 (seven years ago) link

he's (among others) headlining Roskilde, orange stage holds up to 70000 people... will maybe seem empty

as the commenter suggests the Lambert line would probably be intended to reflect on her own sexuality, not Macklemore's
