Have for about 10 years now. Really love his stuff.

I feel like Macklemore is a straight rip off of his style.

What say you?

They're way better than Macklemore for my money.

And I honestly feel like Macklemore has ripped off their style quite a bit. Maybe it's just a coincidence, but I doubt it.

I see your point about Macklemore. There is a very similar sound. Just looking now at his discography and cannot believe I have not come across him previously. I will have to pick up some his stuff and check it out. Thanks for sharing.

I'm not really into rap/hip-hop but I absolutely love his stuff.

I saw him at Tipitinas in 2008. Good for a hip hop show

I've seen him live once in OKC.

He absolutely killed it.

Been listening to him for years. Saw him at hob and it was an incredible show. I wish he'd make his way down to the varsity. I would go in a heartbeat and I pretty much never listen to rap/hip hop anymore.

Eyedea passed away a couple years ago. I saw him in San Diego in 09, during his electrical phase. Not his best work, but it showed he wanted to stretch his range.

He opened for someone at the Stone Pony this summer, outside show so as I was in the ocean that evening I was listening to them and enjoyed what I heard

I love "God loves Ugly" and "When life gives you Lemons"

2 similar artists I like more though are EyeDea (R.I.P. ) and Brother Ali

Can't stand Macklemore

I am glad you guys are versed in Minneapolis hip-hop. Check out Musab Messiah as well. Also, I haven't heard much from him lately but Benefit was a beast.
