Macklemore is not a bad artist his album is good and covers a wide range of topics not just money, cars, sex and hoes. His beats are nice and he can actually rap he ain't gangsta or black so black people will hate him but kendrick was robbed he deserved best rap album and him and Macklemore sold around the same amount of cds but of course macklemore is more popular because of his singles. He should not be shunned stop being bitter he is making better music then a lot of these so called rappers
