Marmalade single cover


The track was first pre-released as a single off Macklemore's second solo studio album "Gemini" on July 26, 2017. The album dropped September 22, 2017.

As Variance states here:

Macklemore also revealed the song was cut on election night (Nov. 8) in America. He said CNN was on in the background as the "unfortunate news" began rolling in.

(This was originally revealed in an interview with Zane Lowe, which you can listen to here)

This is reflected in Yachty's verse:

Fuck the cops, and fuck Donald Trump, bitch it’s Macklemore and Lil Boat

As you can probably imagine, Lil Boat is Lil Yachty's nickname.

An official music video was released on YouTube August 2, 2017. It features child versions of the two rappers:
