Whatever my thoughts on Macklemore, I actually like this album, mainly the production tho.





.....And yes, I actually enjoy Same Love. Fuck me, right?

If Spoons is on the album then Unruly Mess is already WOTY.

Ok looked at the tracklist and Spoons isn't on it thank goodness.

Downtown is a pretty sloppy track, tries too hard to sound grand in my ears. Growing Up is pretty awful. WP2 is uh... something that I can't sum up in a comment. Havent had the chance to listen to Kevin or Buckshot yet, but so far this album is looking pretty ugly.

I agree with the lyrics being a bit sloppy and inconsistent, but I don't understand why people hate him for trying to give his support. Does it come off as pandering, insulting, or just lame?

I'm honestly curious.



Perhaps my viewpoint of him is stuck in 2012, when my teenage self thought he was just a fun new talent with promise for the future. He's too childish and immature to be able to handle issues like racism or LGBT rights when he's doing goofy shit like "Downtown" or "Thrift Shop". Maybe it's being in the middle of the road, then, that might make him seem pretentious, but I think he's honestly trying to do some good things. People are certainly welcome to disagree with that.



Ryan Lewis is a beast, though. Pretty much carries this at points, and as long as he delivers on the new LP, I'll look past the downsides. "BomBom" doesn't get enough respect nowadays.

@Cyg: Yeah, i'm not gonna watch a Cracked video of all things to tell me why a song is terrible. Give me people with more credibility.



So I'm still the only LGBT-person in the thread who likes Same Love, what the hell is wrong with me, am I right?

Cracked hasn't made a funny article or video in at least four years.

Its funny looking at the first page of comments here vs the last few... Wonder why the general opinion of this album changed here so much. I've only heard a couple tracks so I have no opinion atm.

Time + prolonged exposure + different users commenting + people learning more about the man who is Macklemore = People having mixed opinions opposed to those before.
