His flow, maybe. It's weird at times. But what the fuck is wrong with his lyrical content?
It's really bad, lyrically.
The ideas are corny and they're all really embarrassingly executed.
He's a really bad lyricist. Though, better than some really shockingly bad modern black rappers who clearly get a pass because they're black and ''hood''.
I can't agree with this at all.. from a technical aspect Macklemore is lack luster but from a conceptual end he is a unique rapper, artist. Lyrical content wise he is more poetic lyrically and using his flow to carry it as a rap.
Macklemore deserves major props for his content, diversity, musicality and standing out while being a mainstream success.
Macklemore isn't Jay, Nas, Em or anyone like that but he is a very very above average rapper and a superior artist.
