Ryan Lewis, aka that guy who isn't Macklemore in Macklemore & Ryan Lewis, knows that he is frequently outshined by his rap partner, so maybe that's why he decided to hit the streets of NYC to quiz Macklemore fans on their knowledge of him. The skit, which aired on Monday night on The Tonight Show, resulted in hilarious and awkward encounters, especially since most fans had no idea they were talking to Ryan. Some of the more cringe-worthy responses included people explaining that they have no idea what Ryan does (hint: he's the producer) and one woman describing Ryan as a "C+" in the looks department. At least Ryan can be comforted by the fact that when Drake pulled a similar stunt earlier this year, people just trash-talked him to his face.
