It looks like Macklemore has more than a new album dropping this year. According to PageSix, the Seattle rapper and his fiancé Tricia Davis are expecting their first child together. The site's sources say, the couple and their crew partied hard on New Year's Eve with the platinum selling rap star performing at 1Oak that night. But Davis never took a sip of alcohol even when the entire entourage was having a cocktail and could later be seen palming her baby bulge.

Mack and Davis have been together for eight years, with the "Thrift Shop" rapper proposing in January 2013.
