In case you missed it, here’s the (fantastic) new video from Macklemore and Ryan Lewis.

[Mildly NSFW, depending on where you work]

A friend on facebook wondered if this was a joke. It definitely is. Here are some other Macklemore videos for context.

In other news, I’m super excited for this show on November 19th in Eugene. Unfortunately, the show is sold out, but I will post pictures for all of you.
