A couple of months ago I got an urgent SMS from my youngest
sister in Australia: "Go listen to the song Thrift Shop and watch the
video. It's HOT!" I'm always interested when I get a message like that
because she has a touch for picking hit songs before they're a hit. I listened
to the song and LOVED the video! And now it's a huge radio hit here in South
Africa. Seattle rapper Macklemore gets ghetto fab - "Thrift Store"
style - in his latest single about ... well, shopping at the thrift store. It's
a must-see for those lookin' to be fly on the cheap: In the video, Macklemore
and producer pal Ryan Lewis scour area thrift stores for everything from fur
coats to batman pyjamas to cowboy jackets ... straight BALLER. The track and
its hilarious lyrics and sax-tastic beat appear on Macklemore & Ryan Lewis'
new album, The Heist, which debuted at #2 on the Billboard 200. Thrift Shop is
a viral sensation that's funny and captures the hipster zeitgeist perfectly and
it's a hip-hop song with some naughty words... Watch the video for the song,
HERE!
