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.

Well his music is terrible but I got no problems with the causes he supports.

You cannot deny that Thrift Shop slaps hard.

That was before he parted company from Ryan Lewis though, right?

Dude also fuckin loves sharks. Stockton Rush may have been a delusional psychopath, but he did at least help Macklemore see a fuckin cool shark.

That's how cool Macklemore is, I hate one billionaire one iota less. Just an iota. A small, negligible, but measurable amount
