HAPPY BIRTHDAY Macklemore!

Once upon a time...back in my earlier Seattle Hip Hop days...I kept hearing about this rapper named Macklemore...I heard a few songs from him...and Really wanted a cd...but I never ever seemed to be able to run into him to get it...One day Neema was recording with Macklemore so I had Neema buy a cd for me... Ever sense the first time listening to his cd I was a fan...


Fast forward about a few years I have had the pleasure to watch Macklemore grow as an artist...I have been able to see him perform at small venues with barely anybody in attendace... I've seen Sir Mix A Lot pass Macklemore the torch...at one of his 3 soldout showbox (market shows) I've seen him hop off stage at bumbershoot (performing w/ Grynch) and about 50 or so kids rushing him for an autograph... Macklemore always gives his all while on stage...and doesn't just go up there and rap this man puts on a show...


When I was sitting in the airport and cracked up the latest XXL magazine and seen Macklemore more in it...it almost brought tears to my eyes because I was so happy for him and his accomplishments...


Keep it going brother... you've got a fan for life over here...

This is my favorite Macklemore song ever...It has helped me get through a real tough time in life...
