To get back to the subject of the thread for a moment, I'll say this: my brother is a fan of Mackelmore so I've heard a bunch of his stuff. It's definitely not anything I'd personally run out and buy but he's also not nearly as bad as some in this thread are making him out to be. The song in the OP is pretty catchy at least. I think the problem here is that his style is somewhat old-school and not in a retro hipster way (he even *gasp* sounds a little like Everlast) so he's saddled with being seen as uncool. Poor guy.
