Why did Macklemore Asher Roth disappear?

[L $ C]

We have Ian now!

Didn’t Macklemore just return back to his normal level of being a semi-indie rapper?

I mean dude still has 32 million listeners per month on Spotify and a bunch of big songs still streaming

Macklemore did a performance of Thrift Shop dressed like a stereotypical Jew and that was the end of his chapter

He actually signed to Warner, the most Jewish label after that. Or at least his albums after that started saying Warner instead of ADA

Both of them were trash and flew too close to the proverbial sun.

Asher got too much dip on his chip and thought he could criticize rappers for wearing chains talking about “Mother Africa is starving.” Muthafukker the reason we’re not in “Mother Africa” right now is because YOU and yours kidnapped us and brought us here in chains. F U C K you AND your mama.

Macklemore was just trash all around. The Grammys actually were the biggest curse for him because it highlighted how overrated and TRASH he was especially compared to Kendrick, who dropped an all time classic and actually deserved Album of The Year in addition to Best Rap Album.

Their biggest hits were novelty songs, gimmicks aren't built to last

Outside of Eminem, the Beasties, and Mac Miller, a lot of mainstream White rappers are heavily catered towards White casuals and non-rap fans who don't actually value hip hop all that much to begin with. But they're comfortable giving a "safe" White rapper a spin over a Black rapper for a period of time.

That's why so many of them switch to Rock/Country when their shining moment in rap has dried up or why so many disappear from the spotlight despite how popular they once were.

The novelty of being the "safe White rapper" is short lived and on borrowed time because the "I don't like rap but G Eazy is kinda cute" or "I'm not a hip hop guy but Macklemore doesn't rap about bytches and hoes" crowd is very fickle and will revert back to being full blown pop, rock, and country fans at any moment when the safe White rapper is no longer popping on the radio.

IDK about Asher Roth but Macklemore is dope

Macklemore dope?

 

[ManBearPig]

Macklemore should have went the Atmosphere route. He's a good lyricist actually

I had no clue this happened. I just thought he was a one hit wonder

 

[Bonefan32]

Both were trash

Macklemore gotta be the worst rapper of all time

 

[Bugzbunny129]

Lotta white guys in the gme dont hsve the movement to keep it going. Especially once the label goes.

 

[Trips]

White boys jumped back into Country. Morgan Wallen, etc.

I thought Asher would've had more staying power. Macklemore was always cheesy.

 

[FlyRy]

macklemore beating kendrick was worse than pulp losing to gump
