The Tragic Death of Mac Miller, a Musician Who Never Stopped Evolving


On Friday afternoon, the rapper and producer Mac Miller was found dead in his San Fernando Valley home. He was just twenty-six years old.
- The New Yorker article

Life is short. We've had numerous great individuals with long careers ahead of them pass away this year. Mac Miller. XXXTentacion. Shivam Chokshi. The list goes on. As the nature of this forum tends to include very driven, ambitious, and hard workers (including myself), I just wanted to remind you all to enjoy life as much as possible. You never know when it's your time.

For those unfamiliar with Mac's music, and for those who are familiar and have never seen his NPR Tiny Desk Concert, I highly recommend checking it out

. Truly an exceptional artist.

Let me know what you think of Mac's "2009" performance on NPR Music below.
