It was only a matter of time before YouTube expanded their empire into credible and tangible forms of expression. So come November 3, the first annual YouTube Awards will be making their presence felt in a major way in New York City.
In a few month’s time, music’s elite will gather at the 55th annual GRAMMY Awards. But prior to then, Grammys announced that a few sure-to-be nominees in Drake, Macklemore and Ryan Lewis, Robin Thicke, and Keith Urban will have headlining performances at “The GRAMMY Nominations Concert Live!!.”
Lord Jamar of Brand Nubian fame has never been one to hold his opinion close, especially after recently checking Kanye West on his fashion choices. Now, the veteran rapper has unleashed slander on Macklemore, and another rapper, Hospin – adding that the “Same Love” rapper is pushing a gay agenda through Hip-Hop.
Macklemore and Ryan Lewis can add another entertaining visual to their growing cannon of small screen adaptations with “White Walls.” The Hollis and ScHoolboy Q-assisted record from their breakout project The Heist is an ode to their dream Cadillac.
Following a successful showing at the VMAs, Macklemore and Ryan Lewis continued their winning streak last night during an appearance on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno. There, the duo performed “White Wall” with songstress Hollis and TDE’s own ScHoolboy Q.
As Seattle rapper Macklemore approaches platinum status with his independent album, The Heist with producer Ryan Lewis, so grows the list of critics unsure what to make of the rising star. In a revealing interview, however, the “Thrift Shop” artist says that his meteoric success would not have happened if he were black.
Macklemore is winning, and has been since he and Ryan Lewis’s The Heist impacted radio. The successful independent rapper came through New York’s Power 105.1 to talk rap beef, Kendrick Lamar’s “Control (HOF)” verse, trying to defeat the sophomore jinx, and more with The Breakfast Club.
Hip-Hop has seen an increase in success stories these past few years — one undoubtedly being Macklemore. Riding the success of The Heist and its multi-platinum singles, “Thrift Shop” and “Can’t Hold Us,” The Seattle native recently stopped by Real Late with Peter Rosenberg to chop it up with the Hot 97 personality and bless listeners with a fresh […]
Macklemore & Ryan Lewis are winning right now, as they currently occupy the #2 and #7 spots for “Thrift Shop” and “Can’t Hold Us” respectively. Today, the duo returns to premier the visual for the latter that’s as left field as the Seattle MC’s fashion sense.
Macklemore and Ryan Lewis’ song “Thrift Shop” is a massive hit. All those plays means it has also become ridiculously annoying to many. One Colorado woman in particular became so incensed that her boyfriend was singing the song that she proceeded to choke him out.
Macklemore and Ryan Lewis took their show to Conan last night, where they performed their Billboard top 10 hit “Can’t Hold Us.” Considering that the duo’s album, The Heist, was officially certified gold earlier this week, it may be safe to assume that there was a special meaning behind this live rendition.
