Living in an era where black people as a race are still being victimized its a big topic among social media. Macklemore's song "White Privilege Two" speaks on the many tragedy's that black people have faced from a white perspective. Other than the compelling beat that Macklemore provides the lyrics will catch anyone's attention. The native Seattle rapper gives a distinctive input that most white artists in the music industry would be scared to say, he reflects on how he has received his voice from african american culture but is it actually his place to say something about the tragedies that are occurring in our culture? Macklemore's heartfelt vocals can keep the interest of any audience that has an overwhelming opinion upon white people being involved in the movement of Black Lives Matter. The continuously changing beat keeps you interested as though its an ongoing story line which is exactly the case for this movement.For any african american that believes that white artist don't want to be involved in this movement or think anything of the injustices that continuously happen to us then this song will surely change your mind! Macklemore states "What if I'm aware of my privilege but do nothing at all?", this is not the only verse that adds a uniqueness to a white man
