Macklemore says Kraft led venue ultimatum to remove him from Sheeran tour

Macklemore alleges Patriots owner Robert Kraft rallied owners of stadiums in Boston, Atlanta and Charlotte to warn Ed Sheeran: "If Macklemore stays on the tour, you will not be allowed to play in our venues." Kraft confirmed barring Macklemore from Gillette Stadium but did not address the wider coordination claim. Sheeran denied involvement.
