Seattle Sports Teams Reevaluating Relationships With Macklemore Over His “Increasingly Divisive Comments”
Over the weekend, Macklemore released the fundraising single “Hinds Hall 2,” his second protest song about Israel’s campaign of genocide in Gaza. He performed the track at a concert billed as “Palestine Will Live Forever Fest” in his Seattle hometown. During that performance, Macklemore was filmed telling the crowd, “Fuck America.” Since then, Macklemore has been dropped from the lineup of Las Vegas’ Neon City Festival, and now some of Seattle’s professional sports franchises say that they’re reevaluating their relationships with the rapper.
