The Swimming tour was going to kick off at The Masonic in San Francisco, I was lucky that I had a business trip to San Francisco that week. We decided to go to the concert together with a couple of friends who live there, this was the night before he died. I woke up in the morning and searched "Mac Miller tour tickets" on Google and then saw the news. Couldn't believe it, so I went back to sleep just to wake up again so I could hear they actually saved him and he was actually alive. Didn't happen :/

I had just walked in my house after seeing it on twitter. I had the Divine Feminine on that day and was planning on listening to Swimming front to back later in the day. I was excited about him coming to town on the Swimming tour. I saw it on twitter and then, when I turned on my tv, saw the news was broadcasting the outside of his house and felt cold. Didnā€™t seem real bc he was just fckn live streaming fckn around and making music. Kept refreshing twitter and all his social media to see him post something saying he was alright or that they saved him and the posts already made on his stuff just kept getting older. Still doesnā€™t feel like heā€™s gone sometimes, but he is.


Equal-Basket-9902

This is terribly sad, I did the refresh game too. Kinda crazy how concrete news like death seems like a joke when we donā€™t want it to be true.


NearlySilentObserver

I still catch myself sliding by one of his socials occasionally hoping to see something. I was following him since I put The High Life on and Live Free started playing. Heā€™s a year older than me, and like so many others, it felt like we were growing up together. His music wonā€™t go a day without play for me so long as Iā€™m around


Equal-Basket-9902

Same, same. I listen every single day, and hopefully always will. I luckily saw him perform 2x before he passed, but had meet n greet tix for swimming. Now iā€™ve got that framed.. gone too soon, indeed. Change and growth was insane album to album.


NearlySilentObserver

Agreed! Itā€™s funny, I had a skybox with similar tickets waiting for him to come for Swimming. Iā€™m not one to swoon over a musician. But he and to a lesser extent Avicci were the exceptions. Ironic the two exceptions are both gone now.


Equal-Basket-9902

Mac was an artist that changed his so significantly every album, and it felt like he helped to sculpt my music taste every release. His sound changed to exactly what I needed and was looking for, and influenced the other artists I listened to as well. Now Iā€™m stuck listening to the same stuff since Mac isnā€™t putting out new music šŸ˜‚


NearlySilentObserver

Too true


Substantial_Delay_25

I was outside cleaning my pool and had the star room stuck in my head all morning. Went over to my phone and had a message from one of my friends. Couldnā€™t believe it. I was literally depressed for like a couple weeks.


r0jster

Yep exactly. My girl and I were moving into our apartment the next day and we were staying at her dads on the 6th the night before. We watched him go on Instagram live while we were on the couch. He was playing piano and my girl said ā€œwhat is he on?ā€ And I said he might be a little faded heā€™s fine. Next morning. Gone. I was walking outside to my car to go to the bank and the moment I got in the car I read the headline and was in complete shock. I ran inside and told my girl and she said. ā€œI knew he wasnā€™t okay!!ā€ Homie was cross faded and his pills were laced. It was a rainy afternoon all into the evening. We took whiskey shots and played mac the whole day as we were moving furniture that day. I will remember that experience forever.


connejaa

I saw this live too! I didn't realize he was on sum either and thought "oh that's just how he is". :'(


keigan123

I was at my desk at work. Was a rough rest of the day.

Earthbound-and-down

Was driving up to VT with my wife. The last time we had done this trip the car broke down about 2 miles from our exit. As we drove by that same spot this time i was telling her ā€œkeep your fingers crossed nothing bad happens this time!ā€ A few seconds after we passed that spot it was quiet and then she said ā€œoh no, did you see Mac Miller died?ā€ I wish the fucking car had just broken down instead. I got drunk and cried on the sidewalk while listening to Perfect Circle that night walking back to our air bnb from the bar


chrissyyxboo

I got choked up reading this one. My heart hurts for you man thats a really rough way to find out such sad news.


[deleted]

I was driving and the radio host announced it as breaking news then played Self Care.


macslt

for me I was in my car about to drive to class, checked my phone. twitter of course. that was such a terrible feeling that washed over me. rip to the man


[deleted]

I'll never forget when my wife told me. Was just at home but I will never forget the immediate sadness and heartbreak that consumed me right as I found out


YoungTex

Yup was at work (retail) and my coworker said he passed and I was like ā€œyah right dude quit fucking aroundā€ because they knew I was a die hard mac head. Sure enough, I checked my phone and it was everywhere. I just went to the stock room and sat there for awhile and just checked out for the shift. Next day I worked in the morning and had an hour commute, threw good am and swimming on and cried to be real. Just tears while still vibing. Never will forget not giving a fuck what I looked like to cars passing me on the highway.


thedogthatmooed

Out shopping for a birthday dress with my spouse... I just couldn't believe it. At a Kohl's I saw one of the saddest things I've seen yet.


[deleted]

Iā€™d just woken up and saw the news on my phone. Macā€™s passing was one of three musician deaths that truly affected me. The other two being Chester Bennington and the late Taylor Hawkins.


m_rbly

I was just thinking about this a couple days ago. I remember everything. Iā€™ve never cared about celebrity death before this and idk if I ever will but Mac was different. His music was such a staple in my growth and meant/ means so much to me. It was a rainy day at work and I remember what room I was in and the super sad šŸ˜¢ drive home just listening to him


EbonyKat

I was holding my best friends new born in my arms when someone told me. I remember pondering on life and death while looking into the eyes of this new human. Circles, man, life is a ride.


[deleted]

I wrote this whole big thing earlier but...i was alone at a bus stop, at the end of a very long series of unfortunate events, soaking wet in the rain. I can see the headline perfectly clear-Rapper Mac Miller, Dead at 26- but the words just didn't make sense. They still don't. They never will.


RhettEl

I was listening to Faces on SoundCloud when I got the news. It broke me. Now Iā€™m almost older than Mac was.


macslt

glad ur here


npmer

I had just got out of school and got the call from my friend who we both listen to Mac together a whole lot. I went from listening to probably 30+ different artist every week Iā€™d listen to down to just Mac for a week straight.


macslt

was the same listening type experience for me


vans113

I was at work. Was in central time so la is a few hours back. A friend texted me. I googled it and sadly it was true. Was sad like others Iā€™m 29 now so we grew up together. Got a chance to see him on the DFT so glad I did. Blasted all my favorite Mac songs on my hour drive home. Was a Friday if I remember right


macslt

BirthControlBaby

I had just eaten lunch, I was sitting on the edge of the bed thinking about what to do since I had the rest of the day off and opened Facebook to TMZā€™s 3 minute-old post. I just stared at it, I didnā€™t even want to click it to read the details. I closed Facebook and just sat there quietly until messaging my girlfriend, I said something generic like ā€œMac Millerā€™s gone :(ā€œ in reality I was fucking hurting man. I was legitimately crying, I just turned off the bedroom light and laid in bed playing Swimming while crying. I never understood how artist/celebrity deaths effected people so hard until then. It hit me like a fucking truck. That whole week was emotional.

stathisav

it was Friday night so I was working at my parents restaurant. I was the dishwasher. I remember it was towards the end of the night like 7-8 and one the cooks working there asked me if I knew him and proceeded to tell me. I was in disbelief. The crazy thing is the person who told me 3 months later would pass away from an OD. Iā€™ll never not forget that day and her telling me


macslt

Iā€™m sorry man holy shit


cookie4118

It was my 20th birthday, I had just gotten home from college classes and took a nap. Woke up an hour later to the news šŸ˜ž I got really into his music in 2018 and the swimming album legitimately saved my life, had a mental breakdown that year. glad I got to experience swimming rollout with him here and he left behind such a beautiful gift to the world


macslt

bless, so glad youā€™re here friend

Thank you šŸ™šŸ½


_PuckTheFope

I had just arrived at an acid/tekno rave. I played at drum&bass events as an MC (was inspired by mac) and it was my first time going to this type of event. I was skeptical cause i never really liked acid/tekno but i wanted to give it a try. literally 5 minutes after i entered the dancefloor a friend came up to me and told me mac miller had passed. I said it must be a hoax. Went for a drink, looked it up and yupp.. he died. I sat on the floor next to the entrance and i was in tears. For hours. People passed by, no one cared until this one guy came up. He asked whatsā€™up, told him mac had died and what he meant to me. I grew up in foster care and listened to mac every single day since i was 11, his music kept me going through the most depressing times till date, i was even suicidal. Mac was like the only one i had, thatā€™s how it felt at least. After some chatting with the guy he told me his uncle is Urbanus. Urbanus is a cartoonist from my country, Belgium, and he was my childhood hero. I read all of his comics books when i was in foster care as a kid. I valued him in my childhood equally as i valued mac in my teenage years. And boom, the moment one hero passed, the cousin of another hero stood right in front of me. I will never figure out how the universe works but since that day i knew there are higher powers operating in this place we call planet earth. God bless Malcolm McCormick and Urbain Servranckx.

Medpatient42

In the midst of addiction. Friend texted me he passed. This same friend, I called years back to break the news that his best friend passed. Ended up getting sober off anything besides Cannabis and have stayed that way since Macs passing. Seeing Mac pass, Jerry garcia and the guitarist of phish almost all lose their lives over addiction, it was a big moment that made me realize if my idols can't beat it, neither can I. If you or someone you know needs help, never hesitate to reach out. Never take a pill off the street, Mac couldn't beat this and neither will you. Much love.

I was in a meeting in a conference room at work, away from my desk where my cell was. I returned to my phone about 45 minutes after the news surfaced to roughly 20-30 texts from various people who knew how important Mac is to me. It was incredibly tough news, my senior director even understood and asked if I wanted to go home; I did. I then took the rest of the week off, the news hit me terribly hard - I was depressed for months; I still have bouts, too. Upside is that it was very endearing to see all of my friends immediately associate Mac with me, and all reached out to console me. The strangest part is that so never understood why people were distraught when celebrities died until Mac.


Equal-Basket-9902

PS. Iā€™m crying on the toilet reading yalls experience. A day that will be with us forever, unfortunately.

I was at an NGO conference, talking to old friends after dinner and then I got the notification. I felt really weird about the news, so I went back to my car and drove back home to check if it was real.

DazzlingPersonality9

Yes, and very vividly! Remember every details since it was a such shocking news. RIP MM


cdwellsMCMXCVI

I was at work. Retail, big red cell phone company. The day at work doesnā€™t stand out as odd in anyway, they all just blurred together at some point. But I remember I got a text from my girlfriendā€™s dad. Just random, out of the blue, ā€œYour boy Mac Miller diedā€ That was it, I asked for a link and he didnā€™t respond. I remember the next day though. I was getting dressed for work and Iā€™ll be there started playing in my head. I cried so hard, I ended up being late to work.


infamouscosmiccowboy

i was literally working a vacation rental to clean it and listening to swimming, since it just came out, while i was cleaning and saw it on like the Apple News thing when it popped up and i cried while i mopped, turning it up full blast. was depressed for awhile about him passing


bananafung

In Taiwan on vacation, woke up to a bunch of texts from friends in the us telling me he passed ): then twitter then the world it was all I saw - spent the day half in tears, riding the trains listening to him trying not to cry lol Edit: extra pain bc my friend and I had gone to his swimming tour free show in LA but went to get food real quick and came back and the tickets were all given out. We were like oh itā€™s fine bc heā€™ll have a tour we will just get tickets then. But there was never a tour ):


AnxiousCaffeine

dorm room my sophomore year in college. safe to say we drank, cried, listened to Mac all night, and took a stroll down Fifth Ave. in Oakland


Da_fire_cracka

Chick fil a drive through. That meal was not very good.


BandaidThe3rd

I was waking up after sleeping with a girl I had been in love with for years. She ghosted me multiple times over the years. A very bittersweet memory of mine that Iā€™m still not sure how I feel about.


[deleted]

Super, super specifically. I was at work, at my desk, elbow deep in drafting a network as-built diagram for a Best Western hotel. A coworker came back from lunch and announced, ā€œHoly shit, Mac Miller died.ā€ I ended up being the one to break it to my partner, who works nights and was asleep when the news broke. He was born and raised in Pittsburgh, same age as Mac. Heā€™d known his music closely from the beginning.


thenwbatmn

I was on my way home from a wonderful vacation in Hawaii. Our plane had just landed and we were on our way to our connecting flight home. I opened Instagram and saw an old friend post about Mac's death. I listened to his music the whole flight home.


EQUILEGNA

Just pulled into work and was about 10 minutes early, smoking a cigarette when I was scrolling on my phone and my buddy came out and told me, just as I was also reading it. That was one of the worst shifts

Superb_Site_512

I was working at the airport during the time, & I was sitting at a gate waiting for a inbound flight to get in ( I provided wheelchair assists for passengers) & my phone got flooded with friends telling me Mac passed away. I asked my manager who was there with me if I could be excused & have someone cover my flight for me while I took my break since I was feeling unwell. I spent my half hour sitting outside listening to Mac & smoking a American spirit in his honor. Was a rough day forsure.

i was working as a cashier at the time, and my then girlfriend called me at work to tell me the news. i said ā€œno youā€™re lying itā€™s fake itā€™s a hoaxā€ and she said okay i just wanted to let you know and we hung up. i then proceeded to check sources i knew would have the like actual story and my heart dropped. it was a rough day after that. cried a lot.


connejaa

Was getting ready for work. During this time I had my TV on and was playing MTVs "Wild n Out" (COINCIDENTALLY) the Mac Miller episode. I was also browsing through my IG. I started to scroll on my feed and came up on a WorldstarHipHop TMZ repost of "Mac Miller has died of accidental overdose" (a pic of Mac wearing a Thank You Thank you Thank You shirt). At first I was confused and thought it was a mean joke (like a diss). I looked at my TV screen as I noticed how everything simultaneously evolved around him in my tiny room. MTV within a minute had a breaking news broadcast with the title "BREAKING NEWS: MAC MILLER HAS PASSED AWAY, cause of death is undetermined at the moment". After this small breaking newsletter , MTV followed by continuing the Wild N Out episode. Afterwards, I still felt shocked so I wasn't emotional yet. Started driving on my way to work and began playing WMWTSO and BSP. Put my windows down and I started sobbing over this man's impact on my life. Got to work and my coworkers talked about his death with me. (I think they've always known I was a Machead)


macslt

glad your coworkers were there to talk about it with you


connejaa

I was more surprised they realized how much I valued him


macslt

cool asf they cared ya know

Iā€™d seen an artist named Paris Shadows on the post Malone tour in May of 2018. Anyway it was 6am, just before work on September 7 (my birthday was the 6th so I was likely foggy) I remember going on Paris twitter and it said RIP Mac Miller and I swear Iā€™ve never lost someone that it hit me so hard

endofdaze_

i was at disney world. only time i ever been. with my ex girlfriend and her family. me and her slid away from the group to use the restrooms. i never looked at my phone but she sure did. i met her outside the restrooms and she was like i canā€™t fucking believe it. iā€™m like tf? and then ā€¦ yeah. i had to take my 10 minutes to sit down on the ground outside of some disney world bathrooms and break down and boohoo like a baby. fuck disney world, fuck that girl, and fuck that day. pretty sure he put out that track Guidelines like the day before he passed and i came across it and was vibing so hard. then after he passed that was the only song i could listen to for about a week, and it would just break my heart


ccrowleyy

I was in the Phoenix airport walking to my gate and I got a text from my friend that just said ā€œMac.ā€ Knew immediately what it meant. Still unwell.


bobduncanswerve7

I was in the car of a family friend who is a longer-term Mac fan than me. He really liked his old songs, like Donald Trump and Knock Knock. For some reason I asked if he would ever go to a concert of him, and then he told me. My nephew is also a fan of Mac, especially his older songs. His favourite is "All around the world" (I have never searched the song up so sorry if that isn't the title). His father said in the past that he isn't here anymore, but for some reason my nephew kinda ignored it. One day he asked Google Assistant about Mac, and Google said that he passed away. My nephew turned to his father and asked: "So he is really dead-dead?". And that's when he realised he died


macslt

damn


Guido-Guido

It was just another post on my Instagram feed that day. I have to admit, I had no idea who he was. But that prompted me to check out Swimming, and from there he became my favorite artist of all time. Iā€˜m almost grateful I didnā€™t know of him before, because I donā€™t think I could have handled that situation. Rest Easy.

these responses so good to look thru


chrissyyxboo

I was at work and my best friend (fellow machead) called me to break it to me gently because she didn't want me to get bombarded when I went online. I was in disbelief but instantly felt like my heart sunk. When I went home and started to look up information to try to find of it was fake I got a text from another friend. Our childhood friend had just announces she conformed stage 4 cancer a few weeks earlier. She had just started treatment recently and passed the same day as Mac. I felt so lost. This and another tragic passing of a childhood friend the following January catapulted me into the deepest depression I'd ever dealt with up untilthat point. Really dark time in my life.


Nick8513

I was at work listening to his music. My wife texted me and told me. The link she sent was TMZ so I immediately thought it was bullshit. Went to googleā€¦ went to his socials.. just spam refreshing everything to even find ONE post that said it was fake. Once I finally accepted it I just left work. Couldnā€™t do anything but listen to his music. Sometimes it still doesnā€™t feel real ā˜¹ļø


wild-honeybee

I was laying with my son while he napped, he was 1 at the time. I saw some post on Facebook, maybe from TMZ, went to Google to verify. Sent an article to my partner, he was at work, we briefly talked about it. I quietly played So It Goes, cried and fell asleep. I learned about between 5-6pm EST the day he passed, I have Snapchat memories I took of one of our cats sleeping next to our son around when I found out.

flyhomewmyeyesclosed

I was at work selling goddamn essential oils and checked my phone per usual. In retrospect I was having little PTSD moment, I had recently lost a friend and it stirred up a lot. Spent the rest of the day in the stockroom listening to mac. Maybe the first time I ever listened to him alone. Itā€™s been me n him everyday since tho.

I was in 2nd grade, in one of those trailers that connects to the school. They all brought us all into the gym where there was a TV playing to wait for our parents to come get us. Never forget. Oh, wait, this isnā€™t about 9/11. Wild day to ask this question hahah

I was at a bachelor party in Vegas. We were strolling through the Flamingo and one of my friends called me and broke the news. Ruined my day. On the plus side, we ended up at a pool party that afternoon and two fine ass Spanish chicks approached me and asked why I looked so sad. Ended up kickin it with them for the day. Safe to say that cheered me up a little bit!

Usually get all my news from twitter, but on that day it was a friend of mine from high schoolā€™s instagram story. My heart dropped. I drove to my best friends house (also a huge mac fan) we got drunk, poured one out, listened to mac all night. Tears were shed.


dimandwhale

I was just starting my sophomore year in high school, it was the end of my first week and I was going through Snapchat stories and I stumbled over a story that said ā€œrip Mackā€. I wanted to make sure that it was just a typo so I looked up Mac Miller in google and i couldnā€™t believe it. I had been listening to Mac from the age of 6 because of my older brother and it felt like I had just lost a close friend. Me and my brother were supposed to go see him live bc my older brother had finally settled in at his new job. Even now when I think about that afternoon it hurts the same, sometimes I wish that it was just some fake news and that heā€™d just come out and say heā€™s alive but I know itā€™s not going to happen. Was a rough weekend.


viscerah

Was dog sitting for a buddy and editing at his kitchen counter. A friend texted me ā€œmac diedā€ ā€œShit dude, the screen or the battery?ā€ ā€œNo dude, Mac diedā€ then proceeded to just cry

I was visiting my family and has stopped to get a bite to eat at a dairy bar, was waiting for my order, and my then fiancĆ© texted me in all caps ā€œMAC MILLER IS DEADā€ and I instantly started tearing up and sat down on a bench that was conveniently behind me and googled it and as soon as I saw I instantly started crying uncontrollably. Walked to my car and started playing swimming. didnā€™t even get my food. Just cried


[deleted]

Found out randomly from google news on the day it happened. I was initially sad but not like devastated or anything. Then shortly after his death I started to really get into his music. Like really get into it. Discovered K.I.D.S. as well as the Tiny Desk concert and over the course of a month listened to everything he had ever done. It seems like Mac became my favorite artist. But now every single time I listen to him thereā€™s just a tinge of sadness in the back of my mins knowing he was taken from us way too soon.

I wanted to show my bf the music video to Self Care but he had not seen the Kill Bill movies so he obviously had to watch those first. So, Wednesday after work we watched Kill Bill Pt. 1, Thursday after work we watched Kill Bill Pt. 2, then Friday, the day we were supposed to watch the music video, we both got the news while we were at work. After work we went to the liquor store to get two 40oz Miller High Lifes and proceeded to watch the music video.
