88-Keys – “That’s Life” feat. Mac Miller x Sia
June 21, 2019
Grammy Award-winning producer 88-Keys with a new track, “That’s Life,”featuring the late Mac Miller and Sia. Mac got inspired and the effort really touched 88-Keysand Sia. Look at what 88-Keys had to say about it.
“That’s Life” is a song which sums up the sentiments of the music I’ve been working on over the past few years. We all have to forge through the good, the bad and the ugly. Mac came up with the concept for the song stemming from a conversation we had in the studio about relationships as we shared with each other what made the ones we were in at the time special. I played the song for Sia and she personally identified with the sentiments of the song and felt strongly about contributing her own thoughts on the subject matter. At the end of it all, my dear friend Mac and my new found friend Sia helped me make a song to touch the world and help many deal with adversities we’re faced with, but “That’s Life.”

NPR’s Tiny Desk Concert Series Presents: Mac Miller (RIP) [Video]
September 14, 2018
One more time for Mac Miller man. RIP to the young emcee we will sorely miss. He did leave us with a dope Tiny Desk Concert. Small comfort, but good stuff nonetheless.
Aug. 6, 2018 | There was a shift in Mac Miller’s boisterous demeanor as he started the third of his three-song Tiny Desk set. It’s the first time he’s performed tracks from his new album, Swimming, in front of an audience. On “2009,” he rubbed his chin with clenched eyes, looking like a young man who’s beginning to crack the code. Backed by a piano loop and a string quartet, he reflected on his journey’s peaks and valleys…

Got Thundercat in there, too. Nice!

RIP Mac Miller (Rhythm Roulette Rewind) [Video]
September 10, 2018
So very sad to hear of the passing of one of the talented emcees who was considered ‘new’ but kept it True School. Kept him in solid rotation on the old Beatz & Lyrics Show since his early hits. He really seemed to have fun with the craft and rode the hell out of his lane through his very short trip through life. Rest Well, Mac Miller aka Larry Fisherman.
The Mac in the ‘Rhythm Roulette’ above and the bonus embed after the jump (with the late great Sean Price…wow) – that’s how we should remember him. Full of life, a little off but always on beat, zany and dope, a fun dude with amazing talent and wit.

Mac Miller Finds ‘Small Worlds’ & Hits ‘Buttons’ With New Songs Like ‘Programs’
May 31, 2018
So instead of killing two birds with one stone (and why are we wanting to kill all these birds anyway), why not throw THREE heat rocks out there and kill all the game?
(Because ‘birds’ are ‘game’ to a hunter. Plus the Hip-Hop game. Plus… nevermind.)

DJ Kay Slay – “Cold Summer” feat. Kendrick Lamar x Mac Miller x Kevin Gates x Rell
September 5, 2017
DJ Kay Slay is known as ‘The Sh!t Starter’ right? Well, he started some dope sh!t putting this rhyme click together. Kendrick Lamar, Mac Miller, Kevin Gates, and Rell… together… on a funky smooth track… Who’da thunk? Very worthwhile. “The Big Brother” LP might well be worth checking out, too.

Mac Miller: The Hero Who Would Be ‘What?’ (Video)
November 9, 2016
Did Mac Miller put in a lot of thought, or barely a little, into his answer? Who knows… but it is actually a pretty interesting character he’s talking about here.
Mac aka What? dons a light-sensitive onesie, sets up shop in a bare bones but very beneficial headquarters, and levitates but doesn’t fly. Watch What? and his sidekick Why? fight their enemy Who? above.

Mac Miller: Stopped Making Excuses (Documentary)
February 12, 2016
Deep. Never had any problem with Pittsburgh emcee Mac Miller. Some did. And according to this documentary, dude had major problems with himself. Critics were hitting Miller hard in his pride since he was 19. Still he pressed on, got his his 2011 debut album pressed and independently released, and kept the pressure on until it hit #1 on Billboard. But then he moved to Los Angeles… and hit a sharp downward spiral into drug abuse. Talk about PROBLEMS! But, of course, Miller found his way through (and lived to tell the story above).
I’d rather be the corny white rapper than the drugged-out mess that can’t even get out of his house. You don’t go down in history because you overdosed.
Real sh!t. See what he went through, and how he made it through, in the documentary “Mac Miller: Stopped Making Excuses.”

Mac Miller – “Weekend” feat. Miguel (Video)
January 18, 2016
Everything’ll be good by the weekend.
Just coming off one, right? Was it good? Then hopefully that will get you through to the next one. Mac Miller (and Miguel) banked on that with this track. Check out this video for “Weekend” off the “GO:OD AM” album.
Mac Miller – “Speed Racer” (Produced By Chase N. Cashe)
October 1, 2015
So here’s a dope loosey. Chase N. Cashe laid down a beat. Mac Miller spit that funky, fiery, funny (some hilariousness, some weirdness) on it. And we have “Speed Racer” like viola! Sometimes you get a Hip-Hop gift. Don’t question; just listen.
Mac Miller – “Brand Name” (Video)
September 24, 2015
Mac Miller was not meant for the Average Joe 9-to-5 life; the concept isn’t even a reality he can grasp. His “Brand Name” video exhibits that and the skills for real. Straight off the “GO:OD AM” album (out now).
Mac Miller Talks About ‘Battling’ Donald Trump And More On ‘The Nightly Show’ With Larry Wilmore (Video)
September 19, 2015
Mac Miller has his new album “GO:OD AM” out now (linked here). So, it makes since for him to go on some talk shows and talk it up. But for his The Nightly Show appearance, I think only host Larry Willmore mentioned it. That’s alright though, as anyone seeing him on this episode will likely be checking for his “Donald Trump†song and anything of Miller’s they can get their hands on. Twitter beef with The Donald after calling him a d!ckhead – hilarious! Actually, the whole panel discussion above is next level funny. And Mike Yard is a fool!! Must watch now.
(Mac said Trump is like a struggle rapper… bwaaahahaaaa!)

Mac Miller – “Pet Sounds” feat. Sean Price (Prod. By Nottz)
August 13, 2015
Just spitting. Flipping rhymes with style over a Nottz beat. Easy work to Mac Miller and Sean Price. But don’t think everybody can do it like they do on this “Pet Sounds” just because they sound laid back. Respect to Miller. Rest In Power to Sean Mandela. Follow the link below to support Sean’s family and see more of P beasting it out on the m-i-c!

Mac Miller – “Melt” feat. ScHoolboy Q (Prod. By Pete Rock)
June 23, 2014
Got to love when emcees drop worthy verses for a producer they truly appreciate. You know a Pete Rock beat alone was grounds for calling a song official back in the Golden Era. Mac Miller and ScHoolboy Q flow on this “Melt” (produced by Pete Rock) like they know, too. Hear ’em out below.
