MACKLEMORE PT. II + III

My mind has been blown. This is some of the most unreal stuff I've ever heard. Everything about it. The sampling, the beats, the lyrics, ERRRRRYTHING!! Macklemore and Ryan Lewis are putting together some seriously amazing shit. I haven't been this psyched on new music in a lonnnnggg time. Well done, gents.

Irish Celebration samples Beirut's Scenic World , and has some serious Irish roots, and some pretty badass lyrics. Let's just say Macklemore drops some lines like "a rebellious nation of freckle-faced hustlers". That's just fucking awesome.

Then Crew Cuts samples The Bravery's Believe , and that guitar riff is pretty good as it is. With Xperience lending his hand with this track, how can you not listen to it?

DON'T JUST DOWNLOAD ONE, YOU NEED TO LISTEN TO BOTH. Enjoy the new album art too.

MACKLEMORE x RYAN LEWIS

MC Macklemore and producer Ryan Lewis are coming out with an album called "VS." in late November that's going to be donation-based release. I'm so unbelievably stoked for this album, because they sample tracks like Red Hot Chili Peppers (like the track here), Beirut, The Killers, and The Arcade Fire. You psyched yet? I sure am.

“Otherside” (the first leak from the project) mashes big drums and orchestral pieces over Anthony Kiedis’ classic song about battling with heroin addiction. Macklemore now tells the story of Hip-Hop’s experience with drugs and a first person narrative about his own struggles with drug addiction and rehabilitation.

I FUCKING LOVE IT.
