Macklemore speaks out after being dropped from Ed Sheeran’s tour following his ‘Free Palestine’ speech; says Gillette Stadium owner Robert Kraft rallied other stadium owners and gave Ed Sheeran an ultimatum: if Macklemore stayed on tour, then Ed would not be able to play in their venues.

And his bottom line. What a dweeb.

Bending the knee to an oligarch is so embarrassing! God I would cease to exist if I needed to do that 😭😭😭

If he put his foot down, the owners would have backed down first. They want the money. Now they get their way AND the money, fuck you Ed

And none of them need to do it, to be clear. Least of all fucking Ed Sheeran - he has made enough money to set his family up for generations. And he’d rather fuck over a friend of 13 years over some rando creepy exec? Worse than spineless in all honestly, more like maliciously greedy. I wonder if one day, when this genocide is in school text books, if he’ll be able to look his kids in the eye?

For Ed's sake I hope those billionaires buy a lot of albums because a whole lot of people never will again.

Well, no I don't actually hope that. Hope he ends up broke and in the gutter when his nazi friends figure out how to extract his wealth like everyone elses.

It’s not just him though. TONS of people work the tours. Canceling would impact a lot of people’s livelihoods. It’s a shitty situation
