Macklemore dropped from Las Vegas festival lineup after viral 'f--- America' video

Just a few days after the rapper Macklemore was announced as a headliner of the inaugural Neon City Festival in downtown Las Vegas, he has been dropped from the lineup.

News that the rapper was removed from the Neon City lineup comes after his performance at the Palestine Will Love Forever Festival in Seattle over the weekend. In May, he made headlines when he released "Hind's Hall," a rap single praising college students for their protests of the war and denouncing the U.S.'s role in the conflict. In March, he was also photographed alongside protesters calling for a ceasefire in Gaza during the 96th Academy Awards in Los Angeles.
