Macklemore fans, brace yourselves. The “Thrift Shop” rapper will come to Prague to perform at Metronome Festival.
In 2017, Macklemore came out with “Gemini,” his first solo effort in 12 years. The album included platinum-certified singles “Glorious” (featuring Skylar Grey) and “Good Old Days” (featuring Kesha), and the gold-certified “Marmalade” (featuring Lil Yachty).
Macklemore is one of only two rappers to have a diamond-certified single (“Thrift Shop”).
He received four Grammy awards six years ago with producer Ryan Lewis for his debut album The Heist and single Thrift Shop. Macklemore performed in the Czech Republic in 2018 at the closing day of the Aerodrome festival in Panenský Týnec.
