A closer look at the lasting mark left by Mac Miller—a timeline of influence.
Mac Miller, born Malcolm James McCormick, was an American rapper who started his career in Pittsburgh's hip hop scene at age 15. He gained prominence after signing with Rostrum Records in 2010 and releasing mixtapes like K.I.D.S. and Best Day Ever. His debut album, Blue Slide Park (2011), was the first independently distributed debut album to top the Billboard 200 since 1995, marking a significant achievement in his early career.
On September 11, 2018, thousands of fans held a vigil for Mac Miller at Pittsburgh's Blue Slide Park, which inspired his debut album title. The site continues to be a place of remembrance.
On October 31, 2018, a tribute concert, Mac Miller: A Celebration of Life, was held at the Greek Theatre in Los Angeles. Proceeds benefited the newly established Mac Miller Circles Fund.
By January 2019, the Mac Miller Circles Fund had raised over $700,000 to support youth arts and community-building programs.
In May 2019, the renamed Mac Miller Fund issued its first grants, including $50,000 to MusiCares to launch their Mac Miller Legacy Fund for young musicians with substance abuse issues.
