Macklemore and Ryan Lewis

There's really no one in the world that could possibly say they haven't heard of the dynamic duo that is Ben Haggerty, commonly known as Macklemore, and Ryan Lewis, or better yet, heard their hit song Thrift Shop. If that doesn't ring a bell, then I'd say it's about time you crawled out of the rock you've been under over the last few months... Just sayin'.


Anyway, their album The Heist is super incredible, and Thrift Shop (surprisingly) is not the only great song on there. After listening to the rest of their album, it's probably my least favourite. Two of their songs that I have on repeat right now are Same Love and Can't Hold Us. They're both quite different, with Same Love tackling the topic of same-sex relationships, and Can't Hold Us being the ultimate party song.

I am a little bit of a crazed fan, as I am with most things I love/enjoy... With that, I guess it's not surprising that in the two weeks that I've had these two songs on my iTunes, they've gained 64 plays between them. I don't think I'm ever not listening to music, so don't judge me. Take my word for it, or don't (you're missing out), but their album and overall sound is incredibly fresh, authentic and worth every cent.

So, here they are:


Have you fallen in love with them yet? No? Just me then, I guess...
