Odd Future’s Earl Sweatshirt recently laughed mockingly at “Can’t Hold Us” by Macklemore and Ryan Lewis. In a tweet, he described the song and asked who the rapper was. When a fan pointed out that the rapper was Macklemore, Earl complimented his financial status.
Macklemore seemed to find the tweet funny. He posted his own retweet of the message, laughing about the comment.
“Can’t Hold Us” was released in 2011 and was included in last year’s The Heist by Macklemore & Ryan Lewis. The song, which has been certified platinum, does not feature John Legend. The hook on the track was recorded by Ray Dalton. “Can’t Hold Us” can be viewed and heard below.
Earl has been in the studio with a different Mac. Last week, Sweatshirt released “Guild” with Mac Miller. Sweatshirt has reportedly been recording in Miller’s studio, according to FADER.

Good insult my friend. I’m glad we got sharp motherfuckers like you around to keep everyone in check.

He is a friend of JaRule. The guy is renowned for his sweating abilities while rapping, and wipes that sweat onto his shirt.

are you fuckers on crack? he never criticized shit…he made a fucking joke. ya’ll need to grow the fuck up
Blame DX for trying to make it seem like these niggas have beef when they both just shared a laugh over twitter.
Fcking blogspam.
hahahaha I Def though John Legend was on the hook when 1st heard it too…
Who is Earl Sweatshirt?
DAMN DID YALL UNDERSTAND ANYTHING???
HE DIDN’T LITERALLY THINK IT WAS JOHN LEGEND… DAMN WTF I AIN’T EVEN GONNA BREAK IT DOWN FOR YOU DUMB FUCKS!
SONG IS A FUCKING CLASSIC BTW…THIS SHIT TOUCHES THE SOUL!
Fuck Macklemore. His shit is contrived and his rhymes are studio rhymes. He’s basically talking real fast.
Only thing he’s trying to Heist is hip hop from the black man.
and he’s doing it….
earl sounding like a real fuck boy that nigga is clearly jealous of macklemore
hes true. that macklemore shit sounds horrible and has nothing to do with hiphop
Yea, dude is garbo in my opinion. Just another rich dude that got bored.
macklemore rich ? ya’ll stupid has hell
So… Having something to rap about other than drugs and guns means you’re no longer hip hop? You should try listening to some of his other music? Have you heard The Otherside? The Town? There you go, some hip-hop. Drug related content, and a little bit of hometown love.
And Macklemore wasn’t rich when he started in hip-hop, if he even is now. Because he’s white, he’s rich? Stupid shit. The mother fucker got famous with a song about shopping at GOODWILL dip-shit. How rich are you if you willingly shop at thrift shops?
Earl got the face of a blowup doll in that picture. Prob got stuck that way after everyone in private school ran through this dude’s mouth like a bag of skittles.
earl aint better so he needs to stfu hah
who the hell is this Earl Sweatpants ??

Eminem
Slug

fuck everyone else
Haha all these internet douchebags judging Macklemore on his radio hits. Go listen to the whole Language of My Word album and tell me Macklemore can’t rap. Macklemore is on the same level as Kendrick Lamar lyrically.
then u came down off that acid trip and realized ur mind was scrambled lol same level as lamar uh ok
indie wars I see…..Mack ain’t shit but he making shit loads of money…Earl ?
Macklemore sucks.
Honestly, they did this with Eminem when he got his radio hits, not that I’m comparing them but as for the hate Macklemore is receiving it’s what Eminem got from a lot of people but hey that changed when he made MM ep, so I can’t wait for Macklemore’s next album people are going to be surprised what he’s going to talk about, a lot of it will be inspired from his old albums such as Language of my world and he’ll also rap about the fame (not brag but discuss what it really is)
im from the bay and we dont even fuck with this dude..hes a joke..white suburbian kids are carrying this dude..hes a entertainer like mc hammer..not a lyrical dude by any means
“im from the bay and we dont even fuck with this dude”
And yet you fucked with those “White Girl Mob” bitches and helped blow them up, get the fuck outta here.
your a stupid fuck. macklemore from seattle he dont need love from the bay. and his lyrics in the Heist album got more content then earl sweatshirts whole career
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9pv7GZN_sPM
no one wants to hear your bullshit girl music faggot
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vxuH5lnieXg
Lil’ Dicky is the future of hiphop.
Lil dicky also takes tiny asian weiners in his ass
madlib makes good music you should check em out
ability of vocals pretty good
content is weak beats are pop crap
hooks are gay as fun
What the fuck is an Earl Sweatshirt?
the nigga off fat albert with the mask on his face his nickname was earl sweatshirt but they called him mummbles i belive check out old fat albert shit odd future stole mad shit from that.
@ dude below,
The dude’s nickname from Fat Albert was Mushmouth
Earl who?
Hahahah youre so fucking funny. How did you come up with that one?
I’d take Macklemore over Sweatshirt. People kill me hating on Macklemore because he’s white, as if that automatically makes him some industry manufactured “Gucci Gucci” Kreayshawn type gimmick rapper. I bet half of you on here that are quick to judge him never listened to his album, or even gotten past Thrift Shop. Macklemore spits real shit on multiple topics. Listen to Wing$, Jimmy Iovine, Same Love or Neon Cathedral, and tell my i’m lying. Hell, listen to his first album before he was famous.
Earl on the other hand, is like a boring ass version of MF Doom. This man is the most overrated, overhyped rapper to come out in a minute. He’s nice as fuck lyrically and his wordplay is dope, but what does he talk about (aside from the usual drug/rape shit OF is known for)? His daddy problems occasionally… life in Samoa… but other than that, nothing. Nigga rhymes words just to rhyme.
co-sign macklemore is so underrated
He white, gay and he raps. 3 strikes.
At least Macklemore & Ryan Lewis created their own sound and managed to get two no. 1 hits with no label backing. Earl Sweatshirt is just another weak copy of Tyler… After listening to his songs, I cannot see any spark of genius. Just the frustrations of a kid hater. Hip-hop needs to re-start appreciating real artists.
Macklemore is better den Earl and every black rapper is better than Macklemore. swag
all these dudes are garbage… just a bunch of fags going at it on twitter. ya’ll hoes want war- go at it, don’t go talking shit on the web you little bitches
You obviously fail to see the irony in your rant..
whats funny, is that both of em are WACK!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SDYSLX_2vr0
Twitter beefs is for pussies! You got beef? Agree to meet somewhere neutral, bring your crews and yall either battle or brawl…this generation of rappers is wack!
Macklemore > sweatshirt
they blew up wit no label no backing no shock value bullshit.
All I can say is that I cannot stand Macklemore. He doesn’t have the essence of a true emcee, the way I see it, and I think he has and atrocious ear for beats. Too much pop, not enough suaveness. Maybe I am just not giving him a chance, but he sounds very average at best.
Your opinion is average, at best.
Unless someone is thugged out, all about cash, or ‘underground’, they are called out for being weak rappers.
Ryan Lewis uses actual instruments and composes music,key word is ‘music’, instead of just buying trap beats made on a laptop, or looped underground beats.
“you should stay underground forever”. “sure, i love to be paid less!” – Tondeff
I don’t care about whether he is underground or mainstream, his sound just seems wack… and really, come on, Elzhi, Black Milk, J Dilla, The Roots, Wu Tang, Eric B and Rakim, everything, old school, contemporary, whatever, that I listen to is about the art of lyricism and emceeing, Macklemore just doesn’t seem to have that essence that say Nas, or Masta Ace or KRS-One would have. If Macklemore was on the level of the guys I listen to, yea, I would give him a listen, but nothing that I have seen indicates that he is anywhere near them.
@rideonwhateverthefuck
An opinion is an opinion, Macklemore’s beats are trash but I think he’s dope. Hip hop has never been about artist using real instruments if that’s what you want there plenty of other genres that. and BTW Earl Sweatshirt is fucking trash
MAcklemore has done more with 2 single than Earl would ever do in his career. He should back to that reeducation camp he got shipped off too lol
fuck white boy hip hop!!
fuck this sweatshirt mofo.
WTF is this dude talkin bout?
Fuck black hiphop.. Oh wait! Hiphop has no color..
Idiot!
Stop being a stupid hoe, poking yourself in the ass trying to get paid…
black isnt a colour idiot hahahahhahjahahahsahaefohjdsahdsaokhsdoasujld

FUCK THAT DETROIT TRACK IF IT DON’T HAVE ELZHI OR THAT NIGGA DANNY BROWN
“Eminem aint doing skits anymore”
So he drops 1 album without skits and he’s not allowed to go back to them? What about the 7 before that?
DO NOT FEED THE TROLLS R U MORONS TAKING THE RESIDENT MAKE A FAKE TRAKLISTING TROLL SERIOUS
just from the jump, im an black 80’s baby, i know pure hip hop from run dmc, to digital undrground, wu tang, to this new era of weezymania… i seen and heard most of all music. my fav rapper since pac passing is hands down eminem.. the way he uses his words, and his style..man no one is messing with the em c… with that said, the only other white mc i fuks with is yela. i don’t listen to mac miller, machine gun, nor this dude. but to earl, til you have a single that’s certified plat like this dude, then i suggest you get in the lab and makes some masterpiece.. because that singe you have now is no where near a plat single..
GTFOH. This song is horrible. For Earl to go platinum with some BS like this he would have to get a white girl in his group and change his name to the Black Eyed Peas II.
What’s next. Telling Pac to do Auto Tune.
Far as seeing rap in the 80’s your to old to go around talking about what a person sells. That’s for kids who don’t know shit about music.
If you know anything about music this shit is nothing but an Elvis stealing rip off.
“but to earl, til you have a single that’s certified plat like this dude, then i suggest you get in the lab and makes some masterpiece.. because that singe you have now is no where near a plat single”
^ where’s you single to match or better Earl’s for you to talk? Thought so.
Second guy killed it
All I saw was a wack rapper dissing another.
Exactly, one rapper brainwashing the youth to think this is real hip hop vs another
Fuck Caclemore!!!
slow fuckin day
he was joking…
WOOOW HHDX. How TF is this news, it wasn’t even a diss dumb shit
truuuuuuu
truuuuuu
Earl’s lil ass always talkin trash haha. He just can’t wait to roast a motha fucka. He’s like the dude who will always call out someones bullshit no matter if it makes the situation more awkward. Lil bastard haha
i thought maclewhore was the best thing since bieber started rapping
this crap will stop selling as soon as the trend wears off
Who the hell does Earl think he is. EVERYONE in his group, including himself, is complete ass. I dont really even like Macklemore, but Earl is no where near his level.
“Be ready for the collaboration of a life time, which will change hiphop as we know it. Murder Inc + MMG are making a super-group collaboration. Thats means Meek Mill, Gunplay, Rick Rozzay and Wale will be teaming up with the hardcore niggaz from murder inc Ja Rule, Ashanti etc. My homey down miami is a hardcore blood nigga who knows Rick Ross personally and ross told him at an exclusive bloods party at his private home by the water. The game is about to change my niggas its Murda Meets Bawse!”
Ruletalk
uhh where was the diss? sorry if you 12 year olds think this is something serious..
Earl sweatshirt has got to be the ugliest nigga on earth.
since when was it cool to judge another mans apperance?
yup ugliest muthafuka ever
Since when is it cool to judge another man’s cool. Ya lil bitch.
this bitch nigga earl never gonna make it
earl sweatshirt was conceived on the set of gremlins
earl sweatshirt impregnated madonna
earl sweatshirt puts bits of raisins on his oatmeal

Macklemore > Earl

BOTH SUCK
if you think Earl is wack son you need to stop listening to music… weird or different yea but that dude is nice with the words… he is an MC all day…
if you think Macklemore is wack son you need to stop listening to music… weird or different yea but that dude is nice with the words… he is an MC all day…
if you think Lil B is wack son you need to stop listening to music… weird or different yea but that dude is nice with the words… he is an MC all day…
IS THIS DUDE EVEN CONSIDERED IN HIP-HOP
white boys stay watering down hip hop
TheSouth if your from the south as your name suggests then your probably fucking your sister on friday and saturday, going to church on sunday and fucking your cousin the rest of the week. Its people like u that give whites a bad name when most intelligent whites dont think that way. The south is the most uneducated area in the usa thats why they vote republican when they are poor and believe in a god plus believe slavery should still exist, and your all fat asses from your sweet tea… but thats a good thing keep drinking the fried food and sweet tea cause we can get rid of u when u die and hate will not be as prevalent in the country.
I cant lie i dont feel like annny of ese new rappers. Not into odd future at all. Not nto mackelmore mac miller none of that. Why do white rappers have to think socially conciously? If a white rapper tried to make trap music like gucci or waka flaka he would get shit talked non stop.
That track almost has no rhymes in it.
Someone didn’t listen carefully.
why does he look like a coked-out sea otter though????
two rappers with short shelf lifes once the trend wears off these hipsters will move onto someone else
Vanilla Ice Jr. is destroying hip hop.
Vanilla Ice has no kids.
ja rule should slap theze nigguz
#RULETALK
ja rula da best mayne!
This is AWFUL…..Fuck Wacklemore
gonna have to agree with earl..that shit is wackkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk
Macklemore is dope. I can see why so many wouldn’t like his music. He is good to me but that’s because I go much deeper than most fans of hip hop do. I look for intelligent artist, with something to say besides fucking, drugs & money (shit is so played out). At least he goes beyond the boring drum rolls & played out southern beats. This is what artist do not those who just do what the machine (music industry) tells them to do & be. it’s more than an image it’s about the music (art). The song isn’t my favorite on the cd but it’s still ok.
>because I go much deeper than most fans of hip hop do
lmao fuk outta here with that elitist bullshit
Earl at 15>>>>> Macklemore ever
I call bullshit on that. Macklemore has wack flow and a crappy ear for beats either way…. I would rather listen to some of that Melle Mel, Grandmaster Caz, Nas, Rakim, true emcees, not some hipster icon.
this site makes mountains outta molehills just to get people to read the articles. im still gonna fuck with it just..smh at some of the journalism on here
Lyrically Earl is far beyond Macklemore
