Macklemore Steps Out in Seattle With Parents After Ed Sheeran Tour Fallout

Macklemore was photographed strolling in Seattle with his mother and father, his first public sighting since reports that he was dropped from Ed Sheeran’s Loop Tour after making Palestine-related remarks; Ed Sheeran said the decision was up to the promoters, while Patriots owner Robert Kraft’s involvement sparked backlash as other opening acts left the tour in solidarity. Amid the controversy, Macklemore pledged his entire $1 million earnings from the tour to Palestinian aid, and Kraft offered to sit down and discuss their political differences.
