New: Macklemore says Robert Kraft — who owns Gillette Stadium, where Macklemore & Ed Sheeran were to perform later this month — called Sheeran. Kraft rallied other owners together behind an ultimatum for Sheeran: if Macklemore stays on the tour, you won't be allowed in our venues.

I'm not sure how to start this. So I'm going to speak from the heart and share the truth. Ed Sheeran and his team have made the decision to remove me from The Loop tour.
But before I get into it, I want to say something that should be obvious. In this moment I think it matters. I am not a victim. Ed Sheeran is not a victim. Pink is not a victim. We have careers, money, opportunities, safety and audiences around the world. Whatever consequences any of us face for what we say, we get to go home to our families.

The victims are the Palestinian people. The men, women and children who have been killed, starved, displaced and forced to live through unimaginable violence. More than 20,000 children have been killed in Gaza alone. People are being killed today, and people will be killed tomorrow. I want to make sure that as I tell this story, we don't lose sight of that.

Ed is my friend. I've known him for 13 years. We've shared late nights, studio sessions and stages. He has this infectious magic about him that I've grown to love. I consider him a brother. And because of that, we've had some difficult conversations this past week. The type of talks rooted in love and respect for one another that still end in a place of fundamental disagreement. Nothing I'm writing here is out of spite or because I want to tear down his character. But as I told Ed multiple times on the phone, our friendship can't change my responsibility to tell the truth about what happened.

Last Monday, in the middle of all the media attention surrounding Pink and what I said at MetLife, Ed told me that Robert Kraft called him. We were scheduled to play Gillette Stadium later this month, which is owned by the Kraft Group. Ed told me that Kraft said I would not be allowed to perform in his stadium. Ed also told me that Kraft had rallied some of the other
stadium owners and collectively they gave him an ultimatum: if Macklemore stays on the tour, you will not be allowed to play in our venues.

Ed was in …

What I said at MetLife I have been saying on stages around the world for almost three years. So why is it an issue now? Because now I'm sharing a stage with one of the biggest artists in the world, in some of the biggest stadiums in America. At a certain level of exposure, "Free Palestine" becomes too much of a risk. If I kept doing the shows, saying Free Palestine, with Ed implicitly supporting it, the crowd getting loud and showing undeniable support for Palestinian liberation, what artist might speak out next? The stage becomes resistance. Maybe that's why this time it became so important to silence me.

And one of the most effective ways to enforce that silence has been to weaponize the accusation of antisemitism. Antisemitism is real. And that is exactly why the word matters too much to be used as a shield against criticism of the Israeli state. When criticizing Israel, opposing Zionism or saying "Free Palestine" gets conflated with hatred of Jewish people, it doesn't protect Jewish people. It protects Israel from accountability.

I hope this isn't the end of my relationship with Ed.
Thirteen years of friendship doesn't disappear because of one painful disagreement. I hope we both continue listening, studying what is happening in Palestine and wrestling with what neutrality means in a moment like this. My door will always be open to continuing that conversation.

When my brother Omar was doing the subtitles for the video I posted from MetLife, I thanked him. He told me there's a phrase in Arabic:
لا شكر على واجب
"La shukra ala wajeb." There is no thanks for a duty.
That stayed with me. Because that's what this has become for me and millions of others around the world. A duty. Not something deserving of praise or gratitude. Not brave. Human.

Who is winning the internet, who is getting canceled, who gets to play the stadium and who doesn't, all of it becomes so small when held against what we are actually witnessing in Gaza and the West Bank. An entire people be…

If we had defunded the police during BLM, they may not have had the funding to accelerate toward a full fascist surveillance state. We said, "stop killing Black folk." They doubled-down. Now we have flock cameras policing children at playgrounds for profit. Our struggles are intertwined.

They're putting Flock cameras at PLAYGROUNDS. Now we know why.

It’s a little mind boggling that people just say fuck what’s going on around them when sports are on. This isn’t the time to “enjoy life” when life and freedom is literally being taken away from us. But hey. You’re still going to make it to that football game while gas is 5-8 dollars a gallon. 🤦🏾‍♂️

I Stopped watching football when he got black balled out the NFL. Especially when he had the clearest reason as to why he was doing it. Fuck the NFL. I still don’t watch that shit.

Blackice @blackice414.bsky.social · 27/08/2026

And I still haven’t seen a positive for these damn cameras. They just put one up 6 blocks from my house. Won’t be taking that route. It’s time to fight back on this. Them bitches popping up like popcorn.

As a professional graphic designer, that shit lazy and disrespectful to our craft. It’s not even them being cheap. Its laziness. How did you create flyers/logo before ai? You f**king tried! The point of designing a flyer is for your event to stick out from the others. I ignore them all now. 🤷🏾‍♂️

Good question. The answer is we don’t know. And that’s why what he is saying matters. There needs to be real conversations about this. Male and Female. Should be apart of the orientation or on boarding before you step foot into a school.

I always tell my sister, “I like the idea of Houston but the politics of Texas will not allow me to live here”.

All I’m saying is those conversations need to be had. At a professional level. We’ve seen the news stories. And heard about the ones that didn’t make the news because of school embarrassment.

It might seem sus, but I believe he’s coming from a good place. Not disagreeing with you btw. It sounds like the evil thought got to him too. Hes definitely not articulating what he is trying to say well. But everyone is literally missing the point he is trying to make. And the solution.

It’s wild how yall breaking down what that man said to analyze him and not talk about the bigger issue he is shedding light on. He didn’t use all the proper language but he is making a really good point. Men and women professionals in schools need to have those discussions.

What term should he use? Real question? What is the appropriate term? We have problems for real if any other term is used.
