Macklemore is a Seattle based hip hop artist, Ryan Lewis is his MC. Their sound solidly embodies the northwest style, a la Blue Scholars, that many of you will/do enjoy. This is their EP, and in the later half of the disc it offers great remixes of all the songs which are sweet enough to stand on their own. Strong lyrical themes of recovering from substance abuse and enjoying life can be found. This is definitely some of the best most honest hip-hop I have heard recently, and I think you should check it out...or I wouldn't be posting. Plus they are playing Outside Lands in San Francisco next weekend, so if you are going you should come check their set out with me.Sorry for the lapse in the blog, more to come soon, I've been listening to some good shit that I'm looking forward to share. Off to Norcal...
