Summary
Macklemore’s been axed from the rest of Ed Sheeran’s U.S. tour after speaking out for Palestine on stage, sparking backlash, petitions, and venue pullouts — with promoters citing fear of fan cancellations. Macklemore claims pressure came from figures like Robert Kraft, framing it as an ultimatum. Artists including Ms. Rachel, Garbage, and Kehlani rallied behind him, calling the decision unjust and cowardly, while Sheeran remains silent. The tour moves forward without him — starting Saturday in Philly. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
