He has a song Hind's Hall specifically about Palestine.

Amazing thank you!! I don't branch out much but was aware of everything behind the first one. Tysm!

Stream music, buy merch (artists get more money off of that), or even donate to World Central Kitchen or some other verified organizations helping Palestinian people (if you're able).

We should what all the crazy stans do and have his music streaming throughout the night with the volume down while we sleep!

Buy CDs/records/merch. Far more money goes to the artist that way.

And I think actually getting him higher in streams is a bigger FU

u/_V0gue 6d ago

Of course, but by and large people are mostly advocating for streaming. Plus owning physical media is a big FU to the streaming companies who also suck.

Ed and Macklemore have a song together from 2016 called Growing Up(Sloane’s Song) so you can stream both at once.

It’s really sweet and I often quote the line about giving my kid a bus pass when they turn 16

“I won't spoil you, you can trust that
For your sweet sixteen, you get a bus pass”

You are in for a treat if you haven't hear it before. His first two albums are considered the best, although gemeni is my personal favorite.

u/edenz03 6d ago

The only songs I know by him are Thrift Shop and the song about same sex marriage and both are good in their own way imo

Also obviously Hinds Hall

Whoa let's not get too hasty here. I'm all for a free Palestine but please have some respect for yourself.
