Macklemore dropped from Sheeran tour

The rapper was removed from Ed Sheeran's Loop Tour after saying 'Free Palestine' during a MetLife Stadium show in New Jersey.

Kraft allegedly pressured Sheeran

New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft reportedly told Sheeran he would block Macklemore from performing at Gillette Stadium and encourage other owners to do the same.

Other opening acts show solidarity

All other opening acts on the Loop Tour dropped out in support of Macklemore after his removal from the lineup.

Fan merch floods online stores

Supporters created and sold new merchandise on Etsy, Amazon, and Redbubble featuring Macklemore with 'Free Palestine' slogans and peace imagery.

Shirts feature his concert speech

One Etsy shirt prints Macklemore's full statement from MetLife Stadium, including his message to Jewish supporters about criticizing Israel without criticizing Jewish people.

“To all of my Jewish brothers and sisters: criticism of Israel, criticism of apartheid, being against genocide in no way is a criticism of you.”

Designs range from bold to subtle

Merchandise includes hand-drawn portraits, stickers, hoodies, and tour date shirts, with prices from $3.24 to $32, available across multiple colors and sizes.

Kraft matches Macklemore's donation

After Macklemore challenged the Patriots owner to match his $1 million donation to Palestinian aid organizations, Kraft committed $2 million to fight the humanitarian crisis.
