Macklemore details relapse & recovery with ‘Faithful’

Forthcoming album Ben coming Mar 2023

Macklemore has released his latest track “Faithful” featuring NLE Choppa. The track comes with exciting news that his new studio album titled Ben will be released on March 3, 2023.

The track is the third to be released this year as part of this new chapter of Macklemore’s. An honest and raw insight into his own journey through relapse and recovery, this latest track offers a glimpse into the struggles and inner turmoil when dealing with addiction.

Earlier this year, Macklemore also released “Chant” featuring Tones and I, and “Maniac” featuring Windser. More details about the album will be revealed soon.

Earlier this month, Macklemore celebrated the 10-year history since the release of the accolade and award-laden global debut The Heist. The RIAA organization also honored Macklemore & Ryan Lewis as one of the most successful duos of the last 65 years of RIAA Gold & Platinum history and officially certified “Can’t Hold Us” Diamond.

Diamond certifications make up less than one percent of RIAA’s Gold & Platinum program. These are awarded for 10 million sales and streaming equivalents earned in the United States alone with only 19 acts having more than one Diamond single in RIAA history. “Can’t Hold Us” featuring Ray Dalton marks their second Diamond single award, following 2015’s “Thrift Shop” with Wanz from the same album, an incredibly rare accomplishment.

Macklemore recently completed a North American Stadium tour with Imagine Dragons and plans to announce more headlining tour dates soon.
