More quotes by Macklemore
I definitely use smiling while rapping as a tool in the booth. I want to have fun while recording.

I think what's wrong with the fashion world, particularly men's fashion, is the lack of creativity behind it.
Macklemore
I put myself in the place of the listener when editing my writing. The last thing that I want to do is be preached at and told who to be or what to think when listening to an artist. However, I do want to be inspired. There's a fine line.
Macklemore
Hip-hop was started as a very egocentric, testosterone, machismo-driven art form. The way that people are trying to take away that masculinity that is a such an intrinsical part of hip-hop music.
