Downtown by Macklemore and Ryan Lewis
Summer may be drawing to a close, but for Macklemore and Ryan Lewis, it’s not too late for a breezy moped cruise–or gang showdown, for that matter–on a sunny afternoon. Their new single, “Downtown,” and it’s accompanying video is a frenetic and jubilant affair that has been stuck in my head all day. Macklemore picks up where he left off with 2013’s “Thrift Shop,” only this time it’s mopeds he’s haggling over, not cheap clothing, and when he finds the one he wants, he rides it through the wall of the store and out of sight. From there, it’s choreographed dances, leisurely cruises with the ladies, streetcorner showdowns a la West Side Story, and more over five and a half gloriously bizarre minutes.
Like the video, the song is scatterbrained and has a short attention span, but this, for me, is what makes it so much fun. The rap flops back and forth between Macklemore’s laidback flow and his veteran guests’ edgy gang vocals, periodically and abruptly giving way to Eric Nally’s euphoric and melodic chorus, delivered in a voice reminiscent of early 90’s Michael Jackson. The narrative element, the bizarre props, and the eclectic cast of characters make the whole thing feel more like a musical number than a song, and while I’ve always abhorred musicals, “Downtown” is possibly the most fun I’ve had with a music video this year. Even Macklemore’s critics, who seethed last year when he and Lewis won a Grammy despite accusations of cultural appropriation similar to those leveled at Iggy Azalea, will struggle not to be impressed with this one.

'Dance Off' is a song by American hip hop duo Macklemore & Ryan Lewis featuring British actor and musician Idris Elba and American recording artist Anderson .Paak from their second studio album This Unruly Mess I've Made (2016). The song was officially released on February 25, 2016 as the second single only in United States, Australia, New Zealand and selected countries of Europe.
Background and release[edit]
Following the large success of the duo's debut album The Heist (2012), Macklemore revealed on January 15, 2016 with an Instagram post the This Unruly Mess I've Made release.[2] 'Dance Off' was released as second single of the album on February 25, 2016, succeeding 'Downtown'.[2]
Music video[edit]
The song's music video was uploaded to Ryan Lewis's YouTube, now known as Macklemore LLC, channel on May 17, 2016. It was directed by Lewis & Jason Koenig.[3]
Critical reception[edit]
The song received positive reviews from music critics. Killian Young said that 'Dance Off' makes nod to the pillars of hip hop culture: rapping, DJing, tagging, breakdancing and piano groove.[4] David Turner of MTV said that 'Dance Off' sounds like rolling into the morgue by the 27th second, when the song says 'I grab my ankle and pull it up / And do that thing where I move my butt'.[5] Spencer Kornhaber of The Atlantic commented that the song sounds like the director Vincent Price in 'Thriller' (of Michael Jackson), and said that Macklemore 'frets about the adequacy of what's between his legs. In his world, music does not help you transcend your insecurities—it heightens them.'.[6]
Chart performance[edit]
In Australia, 'Dance Off' entered the Australian Singles Chart at number twenty one on March 7, 2016.[7]
