That was very beautiful. I am thankful for Macklemore. Rap is chock of pseudo-revolutionaries and it is part of the reason I feel repulsed from the genre. But this song holds nothing back.

Beautiful. Wasn’t expecting to be crying at work but here we are.

wow I am kinda amazed, that beautiful and so unexpected.

It’s great stuff. I cried the first time I watched it and I’m rarely the crying type (there’s a visual version as well, but got predictably hit with age restriction).

I have no illusion that macklemore is a communist but man, he deserves credit especially considering his size to lend his platform to a message like this is quite amazing. This song really touched me.

I will say on this point, he is accurately using terms like colonizer and capitalism in this and the original Hind’s Hall. Which already puts him ahead of western “leftists” who care about domestic issues, but are unwilling to speak against imperialism. I don’t know where he’s at exactly, in his politics, but he could be on track to be communist, even if he isn’t now. And his emphasis on support for the children of Gaza is very much in the spirit of communism.
