I like some of Macklemore's shit, but think it's funny how he bashes on Recovery and then makes shit that's way more compromised and pop.

No dude, he's definitely not compromising. His music is pretty fucking genius, actually, ESPECIALLY thrift shop. Not the concept, but the way he does it.
I meant compromised in sound, he linked up with Ryan Lewis to give him the radio feel. Don't get me wrong, I'm a fan of the Heist and think it's a monumental album for this time.
I just think it's funny how he bashes Recovery and then follows the Recovery formula.

real talk.
Bronson calls Eminem the worst then says he would like to collab with him.

Iat the Macklemore tweet. I honestly love most of The Heist, but come on... Recovery shits all over The Heist.

I wouldn't call what I've heard (and I've only heard their singles) compromised.
Just because something happens to be able to be big on radio, or catchy, doesn't make it compromised.
Look at "Lose Yourself". It's one of Em's biggest singles and one of the biggest radio hip-hop songs ever and yet it's not compromised in any aspect. It's authentic down to the bone.
Also, I don't think he was calling Recovery shit due to it being commercially big or having pop hooks, he was probably referring to the harsh, messy production and other flaws.
I hear what you are saying, but you'll really have to listen to Macklemore's older work to see what I mean by compromised.
Take his 2007 effort as a starting point....

Language of My World has an indie underground hip-hop sound/vibe, while the Heist sounds much more grand, pop, and radio friendly.
