Macklemore has announced his upcoming Free Palestine tour, aiming to raise funds for those suffering in Gaza. Despite being dropped from Ed Sheeran's tour, Macklemore is set to perform in Dublin, Paris, and London during late October. The rapper shared the news on Instagram, revealing that the tour will be called "Macklemore and Friends."
Macklemore stated that being apolitical during a genocide is no longer acceptable, and people are now expecting artists to take action. He added that the pandemic has led to a collective awakening around Palestinian liberation, and artists must use their platforms to push back against attempts to silence the call for a Free Palestine.
Tickets for the Free Palestine Tour will be available for presale starting Monday, September 28, at 10 a.m. local time through Macklemore's website.
