Artists Stand With Palestine | Hip-Hop News

Author: The Daily News Now! September 18, 2026 Duration: 1:26

FINNEAS drops out of Ed Sheeran’s tour, standing with Palestine — joining a growing wave of artists like Macklemore, Aaron Rowe, and Lukas Graham who’ve pulled back amid controversy sparked by pro-Palestinian statements and performances. Macklemore’s “Hind’s Hall” and Gaza imagery at shows led to stadium owners backing out after pressure from Patriots owner Robert Kraft, forcing Sheeran’s team to make tough calls — while Macklemore pledged his entire $1M salary to Palestinian causes. The tour continues without its original lineup, spotlighting the cultural and political tensions reshaping live music.
