News that the rapper was removed from the Neon City lineup comes after his performance at the Palestine Will Love Forever Festival in Seattle over the weekend. A video of Macklemore yelling “Yeah, f— America!” during his performance has since been viewed over a million times on social media.
Macklemore has not kept his stance on the ongoing war in Gaza a secret. In May, he made headlines when he released “Hind’s Hall,” a rap single praising college students for their protests of the war and denouncing the U.S.'s role in the conflict.
Way to go, Mack. Right side of history.
