matesprit: kanye-worst: igglooaustralia: “The Great Race Debate”. Macklemore discussing Racism, White privilege, and Cultural appropriation in new Hot 97 interview. [x] this is for all you self righteous jackasses on this site so quick to jump on the macklemore witch hunt wagon. His music might be weaker than most every black man’s in the game but you CANNOT put him in the same box as Igloo Australia. The man cares. macklemore has always acknowledged his white privilege from the beginning of his career to now. he was out protesting for mike brown and eric garner just like the rest of us. in this same interview, he mackled about how he didn’t think same love should be praised as the equality anthem because there were black rappers who rapped about equality before he ever did and didn’t get the recognition he did. his mackling even went so far as to talk about about how he didn’t deserve his grammy because he thought kendrick had a better album. when has a white celebrity not only acknowledged their privilege but also apologize to the black celebrity they unintentionally benefit from? i like macklemore a lot, and i really hate that this website convinced me he was a bad guy before i knew anything about him. -- source link
