Biography

Macklemore & Ryan Lewis are an American hip hop duo formed in 2008, from Seattle, Washington. The duo is composed of Ben Haggerty, a rapper who goes by the name of Macklemore and Ryan Lewis, a record producer, DJ, and professional photographer, who met the former at a photo shoot and they have significantly collaborated ever since. In 2009, they released their first collaborative effort, an EP titled VS. EP. They have since followed up with VS. Redux (2010) and the Grammy Award-winning album The Heist (2012).

 

Macklemore and Lewis' single "Thrift Shop" reached at number one on the US Billboard Hot 100 in 2013. The single was premiered on commercial radio by radio personality Jay Postal on September 2, 2012, and was soon dubbed the first song since 1994 to top the Hot 100 chart without the support of a major record label by Billboard, although Macklemore, in a slightly unusual recording contract, pays a nominal percentage of sales to use Warner Bros. Records’ radio promotion department to push his singles. Their second single, "Can't Hold Us" also peaked at number one of the Hot 100 Chart, making Macklemore and Lewis the first duo in the chart's history to have their first two singles both reach the peak position. Macklemore and Lewis released their debut studio album The Heist on October 9, 2012, which charted at number 2 on the US Billboard 200. The pair was nominated for seven Grammy awards at the 56th Annual Grammy Awards, winning four awards, including Best New Artist, Best Rap Album (The Heist), Best Rap Song and Best Rap Performance ("Thrift Shop"). Thrift Shop has gained approximately 755,776,153 YouTube views as of August 29, 2015. - Wikipedia

This is slowly growing on me but I only really like the chorus, the verses are pretty crap.

 

Rather it didn't go top 10...

Downtown is really good and infectious.

'Downtown' just missing top 10 :( Doubt it'll improve on this peak too either but at least it's set for a good chart run.

 

Sounding good on a Friday afternoon :music:

Aww Macklemore was my last hope for something really good in the top 10.

 

Ignore the top 10 this week and make #11-#15 a pretty amazing top 5? :D

Downtown still not top 10 :(

I really hope this can make the top 10 at some point, it can't be stuck with an #11 peak :(

this is actually fab

Just realised also this is the first time they've managed to fit #11 in before the second news update.

Was hoping Jess Glynne would be out of the top 10

wow at Jess Glynne falling to #15 in the official midweeks and now up to #10 for Friday. Only a true quen could *.

I will never know what she is saying in this song.

I wish this would fall faster. Such a bore.
