I have just gone from someone who would never go to a Macklemore concert to someone who will pay top dollar for Macklemore tickets. I don't even know what genre this is. Kidsbop or something? Who cares? This guy has earned my deep respect.
We need more major artists to use their platform for good the way this man is doing. Macklemore is setting an example and deserves massive public support.
If he gets blacklisted by LiveNation (which is what this sounds like), and if other major artists decide to also follow suit, wrecking a monopoly could become a nice side-effect to helping stop a genocide.
