The Heist is the debut studio album by American hip hop duo Macklemore & Ryan Lewis. It was released on October 9, 2012, by Macklemore LLC, distributed under the Alternative Distribution Alliance. The album was independently self-produced, self-recorded, and self-released by the duo, with no mainstream promotion or support. After the album's release, the duo hired Warner Music Group's radio promotion department to help the push with their singles for a small percentage of the sales. The album was recorded in Seattle, Washington between 2009 and 2012. Four singles were released before the album; the fourth single, "Thrift Shop", was the most commercially successful – peaking at number one on the Billboard Hot 100 and in 17 other countries, including in Australia and New Zealand, as well as a successful run on the charts in many other countries. The album's second single "Can't Hold Us" was also largely commercially successful, peaking at number one in the United States, Australia, and Sweden.
