Robert Kraft Confirms He Blocked Macklemore From Gillette Shows
The rapper’s performances in New Jersey featured pro-Palestinian messaging.
Patriots owner Robert Kraft has confirmed that he blocked singer Macklemore from performing at two Gillette Stadium shows as part of Ed Sheeran's Loop tour. Kraft stated that the rapper's "recent actions" and history of "antisemitic rhetoric and imagery" made him ineligible to participate in the September 25th and 26th concerts. Macklemore had announced earlier that he would not be opening for the remaining 10 shows of the tour after being informed by Ed Sheeran that Kraft had opposed his participation.
