Human rights for everybody, there is no difference. Live on! And be yourself!
Macklemore
You need to get outside of your comfort zone to write songs that are interesting, songs that are compelling, songs that are different from what other people are writing.
Macklemore
I write to the beat and let life play the guitar strings
Macklemore
I'm someone that examines culture and tries to break down why things are the way that they are whether its hip-hop music, sex, race, or consumerism. I try to examine it and scrutinize it to the point where I can write a song.
Macklemore
No freedom til we're equal...damn right I support it.
Macklemore
I find that when I put my spiritual life first, the rest of my life is easy. When I put my career first, that's when I have problems.
Macklemore
A world so hateful some would rather die than be who they are.
Macklemore
For me, being transparent about every aspect of my life is what makes my music relatable and how I'm able to be an individual amongst the mass amounts of other artists.

America the brave Still fears what we don't know
Macklemore
We become so numb to what we're saying.
Macklemore
I definitely use 'smiling while rapping' as a tool in the booth. I want to have fun while recording.
Macklemore
The greats weren't great because at birth they could paint The greats were great because they paint a lot
Macklemore
The moment is now and we cant get it back from the grave.
Macklemore
I'm not more or less conscious than any other rapper out there.
Macklemore
Sampling is kind of prehistoric, given the technology and the textures you can create.
Macklemore
Of course I want dubs and a candy painted 'lac Watch the videos and get the girls in the back But if that's what I believe in, and the reason that I rap Uncle Sam is my pimp when he puts me on the track
Macklemore
I grew up in the spoken-word community. Before everybody had a home studio, or before we could get booked for shows, open mics were the only way to be heard by other people. It really gave me a chance to develop as a performer. Reading a piece of poetry with no beat in front of 20 people is way more challenging than rocking for 10,000 people.
Macklemore
I want to make music that I like not something that I have to make because I think it's going to sell.
Macklemore
I've never been a religious person. I've been a spiritual person since I was about 15, 16, when I was first introduced to Psilocybin [mushrooms]. That really opened me up to thinking about the universe in a different way, and coming to significant realizations about my connection to something greater than me.
