8 mins tho? Who tf he think he is, led zeppelin?

I like this
"we take all we want from black culture but will we show up for black lives?" -
But the one thing the American dream fails to mention
Is I was many steps ahead to begin with
My skin matches the hero, likeness, the image
America feels safe with my music in their systems
And it's suited me perfect, the role, I've fulfilled it
And if I'm the hero, you know who gets cast as the villain
White supremacy isn't just a white dude in Idaho
White supremacy protects the privilege I hold
White supremacy is the soil, the foundation, the cement and the flag that flies outside of my home
White supremacy is our country's lineage, designed for us to be indifferent
My success is the product of the same system that let off Darren Wilson guilty
when has Eminem ever spit a verse like this -
This white boy about to win a Grammy for this ? , and all he's doing is talking about white privileges, and the racial inequalities of this country..
SMH..
It's sad because BLACK rappers been making songs with the same subject and content for years and they don't even get noticed,
but when a white boy does it,
they act like its ground breaking.. -
Didn't listen, ? him and his white guilt

That's what stops me from listening to his music (besides the fact that he's not a good rapper to me...ryan lewis can make a damn beat tho that's for sure). The reaction of non rap fans of his that are gonna hear this and act like he the only one with substance. I don't think macklemore is disingenuous about his white privilege or using it to be the cool white guy at the black party. But enough is enough. Just rap, bruh, damn. -
Just listened..
I never thought I'd say this in a million years,
but the song is actually dope..
I know this is the reason,
and some posters will judge the song without listening to it (I'm guilty of this too sometimes),
but I think we should all listen to it and have a real discussion on the topic.. -
Dude call out Elvis Presley, Iggy Azelia, and Miley Cyrus for stealing and exploiting the culture..
-
? seriously hating on this because he telling the truth?? You muthafuckas ? me!! And cosign @illedout this ? is dope.
-
lemme go head and get my stock in this early
-
Dope, I doubt the mass will get behind this like they did same love
-
So Em's White America or this?
-
I actually read the lyrics to all 4 verses and he touches on some ? that a lot of white people fight against but for some reason I can't bring myself to actually listen to it. Hearing Macklemore rap just annoys the ? out of me
-
eh its cool... but ya ? ain't ? .
ya complain when wht folks play dumb, and ya complain when wht folks acknowledge racism. -
This dope he did it, I applaud him for it. Cuz the other white boy wouldn't had done it
-
I agree It's a record for white folk not for us
-
Only white people can end white supremacy
-
-
"he's so brave"
That what I'm supposed to think right?
For making a record that black rappers been making for 20 years, he is literally the physical embodiment of white privilege.
Public Enemy made this song and crackers was in they feelings. -
? is about the messenger, not the message.
Yeah ? have been making this ? for years but clueless caucasoids have no intentions on listening to a ? preach to them, unfortunately. This ? is for them. He is fulfilling his role, and I appreciate the record. -
