Who in the hell is Macklemore?

 

[Momentum]

Because he put out a pop single. Though he has some deeper songs, his base ain't trying to hear about that and those tracks aren't singles.

 

[RammerJammer]

Are you form Alabama?

Yeah

 

[Firefly]

Wasn't there an article on here about how his songs were serviced straight to Pop radio? If that's the case, he doesn't have to be played on Urban radio to have a #1 record. Yes, he's marketed as a rapper, but it appears he's going straight to Pop radio with his songs.

never really heard his album tracks but his singles don't cater to that demographic.
