美国说唱歌手Macklemore因在Ed Sheeran巡演中发表政治言论,被从该巡演的剩余场次中除名。1Macklemore于9月4日在新泽西州MetLife体育场的演出中发表了一段两分钟的演讲,支持加沙和约旦河西岸,并引用数据称超过20,000名加沙儿童自2023年10月7日以来被以色列军方杀害。1这一言论随即引发以色列美国委员会等组织的请愿,要求其被移除。1
巡演推广方Messina Touring Group宣布Macklemore将不再参加剩余的美国巡演日期,理由是场地所有者反对其出场。1Macklemore原定在剩余10场中的8场演出中担任开场嘉宾,涉及费城、波士顿、亚特兰大、夏洛特、印第安纳波利斯、达拉斯和坦帕等场地,巡演将于9月19日在费城重新开始。1Macklemore指称新英格兰爱国者队老板Robert Kraft施压促使这一决定的做出。1
此事引发广泛舆论反响,歌手Pink对Macklemore的亲巴勒斯坦表演进行了批评。3Macklemore随后回应称受害者是巴勒斯坦人民。3
Rapper Macklemore has been dropped from the remaining dates of Ed Sheeran's US Loop tour following statements he made in support of Palestine during a performance.1 On September 4, Macklemore delivered a two-minute speech endorsing Gaza and the West Bank at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey, during which he referenced data stating that over 20,000 Gaza children had been killed by Israeli forces since October 7, 2023.1
The removal prompted immediate controversy. Tour promoter Messina Touring Group announced that Macklemore would no longer appear as an opening act for the remaining eight of his scheduled ten performances, citing opposition from venue owners.1 The decision came after the Israel American Council and other organizations petitioned for his removal from the tour.1 Macklemore alleged that Robert Kraft, owner of the New England Patriots, had pressured Ed Sheeran to make the decision.1 The tour is set to resume in Philadelphia on September 19, with affected venues including Philadelphia, Boston, Atlanta, Charlotte, Indianapolis, Dallas, and Tampa.1
The incident has drawn broader reactions within the music industry. Singer Pink publicly criticized Macklemore's pro-Palestine performance.2 In response, Macklemore countered that the victims are the Palestinian people.3 Ed Sheeran has not issued an immediate public statement regarding the matter.1
