Macklemore's best when he's goofy. His serious stuff comes off as super preachy.

Whoa, kids, watch out for drugs! They may seem cool because rappers do them, but they'll ******** up your life, yo.

They might as well play this song at D.A.R.E. presentations for sixth graders.

I'm paraphrasing, of course, but I'm of the mindset that good art shouldn't preach.

Yeah, but it's a story he's told many other times. It's a message.

Hey, everyone has their own tastes, but I personally find it very off-putting. I'm okay with an addiction story if it's told in a particularly interesting way, but Macklemore plays it out in a pretty predictable, trauma-porn format, from my point of view.
