Too early for me to be a part of a thread that has Azealia and Iggy in the same thread title 

 

BUT I'LL TAKE IT ANYWAY

 

 

Edit: Only 15 minutes in, but Macklemore seems to be spilling tea left and right

Didn't finish it all, but it was a pretty interesting interview. Glad he understands why Hip-Hop fans aren't that fond of Iggy, and how he understands privileges in the world... unlike homegirl who acts unfazed. 

 

But this thumbnail image got him looking stressed.

omfg Peter Rosenberg hit the nail on the ****ing head

"Iggy sounds like she believes she's too good to have the conversation"

 

Ebro is speaking some truth too

I'd be pretty stressed if I was talking about this hyper-sensitive topic on live air too   he handled it pretty well tho

[inuborg 4,135]

I respect Macklemore sooooooo much for this.

Same.

 

But he spoke on it well.

Wow, he actually gets it. I respect him so much more for this interview.

A lot of you on this site could learn from him.

[mucinex 4,260]

this conversation is getting very interesting and he contributed a very good point

[inuborg 4,135]

Pretty much these three men sum up my thoughts on the situation pretty much perfectly 

[GagaMyBlood95 9,808]

I love him, I love his music and I love his opinion  He is amazing!

I'll make sure to watch it in its entirety tomorrow. :) Macklemore seems to really get it from what I've watched so far.
