![]() Coincidentally we had both purchased mopeds for being on the road so we could go around, leave the venues that we were performing at, and I wrote a song about mopeds, which now a year and a half later is out in the world.” Sort of like 70s hip-hop-slash-rock with a weird Little Shop Of Horrors undertone.Ĭhatting to MTV the hit rapper said, “Ryan made a beat on the road called ’moping around,’ I got the beat, I thought it said moped. Because the melodies, courtesy of Eric Nally, are seriously good. ![]() With lyrics like, “You don’t need an Uber, you don’t need a cab, f*** a bus pass, you got a MOPED man!” this song makes us simultaneously LOL and groove. This is a song dedicated to the glory that is mopeds. The tune wounds a bit like Mark Ronson’s hit Uptown Funk minus the cheesy horns and way cooler, with Macklemore rapping about mopeds instead. And that is important on a Monday, right? ![]() Macklemore & Ryan Lewis’ Downtown, aka the anthem for mopeds, makes our ears and eyes HAPPY. Motorcycles get so much love ‘n’ lust, a sturdy two-wheeler ‘ped can be overlooked. We’ve often thought mopeds are underappreciated.
