Macklemore took to the streets of Seattle last night (Nov. 24) after the controversial Mike Brown verdict was delivered.

The Forbes Hip-Hop Cash Kings List each year takes a look at the elite group of artists that earn the distinguish of being the highest earners in the genre. This year, the winner that came out on top was Dr. Dre, who easily beat second place finisher Jay Z by a whopping $560 million!

We can always count on Jimmy Fallon to tackle the hard questions. His latest challenge? Finding out exactly what Ryan Lewis does.

Yikes! Macklemore had some fans in an uproar after he donned a controversial costume while performing in Seattle over the weekend, wearing a black wig, beard and fake nose that many interpreted as a hurtful caricature of a longstanding Jewish stereotype.

Just try to imagine it: Macklemore and Ryan Lewis performing at your wedding, alongside Mary Lambert and Madonna (!). Superstars like Beyonce and Paul McCartney crying tears of joy watching you get married. Celebs like Anna Kendrick snapping shots of you while you say your vows, repeating the words after officiant Queen Latifah.

Macklemore and Ryan Lewis picked up the 2014 Grammy for Best New Artist.

Wow. Just wow. Macklemore and Ryan Lewis didn't just perform 'Same Love,' their commanding and potent song about same-sex equality, at the 2014 Grammy Awards (Jan. 26). The Seattle rap duo had couples of all ages, races and orientations get married on their cathedral-like stage during the performance.

Macklemore and Ryan Lewis are currently in Miami, but that didn't stop the duo from appearing at the 2013 American Music Awards (Nov. 24). They beamed in from their concert in Florida, offering a satellite performance of their smash hit 'Can't Hold Us.'

The 2013 American Music Awards were rife with amazing performances from Katy Perry, Ariana Grande, One Direction, Rihanna, Miley Cyrus, Justin Timberlake, Christina Aguilera, Pitbull featuring Kesha and more. And you can catch them all here!

Congratulations to Macklemore and Ryan Lewis! The duo accepted their American Music Award trophy for the Best Rap/Hip-Hop Album via satellite from Miami, and of course, Mack -- real name Ben Haggerty -- used his platform to draw attention to important social issues. His activism doesn't end at 'Same Love!'

Just in time for the big tour, Ryan Lewis and Macklemore posted a video on YouTube of the rapper prank calling a girl who was scalping tickets to his performance on Craigslist. Macklemore used a fake accent and kept her going for many minutes before ultimately revealing that he actually was the person she was selling tickets to.

The 2013 MTV EMAs – that's the European Music Awards — are slated to broadcast live on Sunday, Nov. 10 from Amsterdam. Justin Timberlake and Macklemore + Ryan Lewis lead the nominations with a five a piece, while Lady Gaga and Miley Cyrus, along with Robin Thicke and Justin Bieber, all notched four nods a piece.
