[Citizen Zed]

Is this a George Soros funded Republican magazine?

The track, released Friday, is close to nine minutes long

Someone cut it down to 3:05.

[Turbo Pig]

So the white guy calls out other white guys, and gals, for appropriating black “culture”. Do you have to go to training to be that stupid, or can you just print the certificate out on your coler(ed) printer?

[dfwgator]

Macklemore, please do me a favor, kill yourself. At least it would be one less white person, so at least you’d be helping the cause.

[MAexile]

Someone cut it down to 3:05.

I'm sure it still feels like it's nine minutes long.

[Tupelo]

Race Traitor

[heights]

Yeah, what has the White Race ever accomplished!

[lodi90]

What a race baiting asshat this Mackleclown guy is.

Chuck Berry “appropriated” white boy country music. Is that “black privilege”?

[JoeDetweiler]

“The Seattle-based duo....”

Seattle-based. That’s all I really needed to know. The rest is 100% predictable.

[VanDeKoik]

He made a couple of catchy and fun songs, and then he goes full SJW retard.

I would pay good money to watch Eminem just own this phony.

[T-Bone Texan]

This white-hating doosh should walk through the ghetto at 10pm with a $20 bill hanging out of his pocket, and then get back to us with his findings.

He would be culturally enriched to death.

[WyCoKsRepublican]

If any complimentary copies of the CD are available I’ll use them for skeet.

[AnotherUnixGeek]

and even namechecks Miley Cyrus, Iggy Azalea and Elvis Presley for appropriating black culture, along with himself.

And does it in a rap. The idiocy of calling out other people for appropriating other cultures while doing it yourself is beyond belief.

The whole thing is nonsense, anyway - of course Elvis, the Beatles, the Stones borrowed from black pioneers of rock & roll and blues - but Robert Johnson was playing a guitar, not an African musical instrument. Rap, as well as rock & roll, came from an environment created by people of a lot of different races, and we've gotten some great music from that melting-pot. It's notable that so many of today's ethnic-purity freaks and segregationists are liberals.

[aquila48]

Does the track come with a “Stupidity Warning” label!

[aquila48]

Is blacks getting an education appropriating white culture?

He's ripping off "Third Base" a white rap group that did "Pop Goes the Weasel", which was an attack on Vanilla Ice.

[CrazyIvan]

Yeah, what has the White Race ever accomplished!

Hmmmm. That would make a good parody of Monty Python’s What Have The Romans Ever Done For Us scene.

[sparklite2]

“What the hell kind of a name is Macklemore?”
“It’s Macklemore’s name, sir.”

[Resolute Conservative]

Rap is crap.

[To Hell With Poverty]

Yeah well the guitar is Spanish so blame the original black bluesmen for appropriating a European artform.
