I don't listen to Urban radio as much as I used to but I never hear Macklemore, but he has two #1 songs out this year. No not a fan of him but any reasoning behind him being played more on pop radio than urban?

Uhhh ...because it has a retro pop feel to it???

I just don't see this song FITTING into an URBAN RADIO format

in fact i did hear it on a urban radio mixshow and it SOUNDED SO OUTTA PLACE :why:

so don't none of you fools go pulling the RACE CARD outta your a$$ talking about BLACK RADIO stations are RACIST against Macklemore...

they just don't fit the format.....in laymens terms it's CORNY and production wise it's a little left to the center of what's going on in autotune...

might have been appropriate for 1993...but NOT 2013

The stations are racist. Ima call Al Sharpton to protest and make a thread on here about it. We need action on this.
