Macklemore

Macklemore is an American rapper and GRAMMY-winning artist who, in September 2026, was removed from Ed Sheeran's Loop Tour after performing the phrase "Free Palestine" on stage. His exclusion prompted several supporting artists, including Finneas, Lukas Graham, and Beoga, to withdraw from the tour in solidarity, sparking widespread debate across the music industry and political discourse about artistic freedom and the influence of venue owners and corporate sponsors on performers' expressions.
