New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft shot back at Macklemore after he challenged him to match a $1 million donation he is making to organizations providing aid to Palestinians, the latest escalation in a dispute that saw the artist booted from Ed Sheeran’s U.S. tour.
On Wednesday, Macklemore, whose real name is Benjamin Hammond Haggerty, said in a statement on Instagram that he would donate $1 million in his net earnings from Sheeran’s Loop Tour to six organizations supporting Palestinians. In the post, he invited Kraft to match the donation.
