Man. This sucks so much. Taylor Allderdice class of 2010 here. When dude first got famous. I was really jealous. I grew up around st bede. I went to Sterrett which was down the street. Ive known malcolm thru various channels my entire life. When we were in 7th grade he had a myspace music page, where he played acoustic guitar accompanied by vocals. Eventually I grew to love his music, as I dealt with my own addiction crisis. I sold drugs for 10 years before I quit. In my time I caught more than a few felonies. Google yevgeniy grinberg Pittsburgh marijuana if you do not believe me. In the middle of my addiction I was snorting about 4-5 30mg percocets per day, and i was mixing these percs with cocaine, speedballing hard. Ontop of this I would take dabs and because of access to bitcoin and the darkweb i had wierd drugs too like phentanol and pure DMT. Basically I was fucked. And in some of my worst moments I had nothing to relate too except music. Truly was in oblivion... eventually I was able to get out if my own head. But it took going to jail. I had to sit in a California jail for 27 days. forced clean, to really understand how badly I was fucking up my life. Im sorry you couldnt figure your shit out Mac. It makes me sad. I am 26 years old. Same age. But im still breathing. Am i better than malcolm? Doubtful. Whos to say how I would handle fame. I sure as hell was never able to handle money well. While making $30,000 a month profit at my highest point, I was not able to control myself. Cannot imagine what its like to be mac at a young age. R.I.P. mac, you will be missed. I just hope that when im gone someone misses me.
i have a theory that he didn't die and all of his dead is fake but Ariana and the others (so as all of us) believe he did died but he's still alive but with a different ID (and blah blah blah) so people don't know who is he
Leo Macías Ho That’d be really cruel, though. If you believe Mac was a good person (which I assume you do), then he wouldn’t fake his death and let all of his friends and family suffer and grieve, as they’ve been shown to be doing. Let the dead rest, dude.
"Somebody save me from myself." I'm sorry I couldn't save you, but thank you so much for saving me. If I ever get the chance, man, I'm paying you back... ... and I'll be waiting for that.
This makes me cry every time. His voice cracking and wavering with sadness, the church-organ-like, melancholy synths, and the context of Malcolm's life and death just gets to me.
Donatello bro please don’t go there...that’s completely subjective. I see where you are coming from in trying to create a way of making sense of Mac to appeal to your theory but.....we don’t know what really happen or where he really is if he’s dead but look at it this way..........IT DOES NOT MATTER, PRETENDING TO KNOW IS TO MISLEAD YOURSELF. Have a nice day🙏🏼
@@king.indigo3692 Nobody is pretending to know anything I actually study life after death. I don't accept easy answers. Not tryna go back n forth with you. Just stating a fact.
This dude smoked me out at ockeechobee music festival. What an inspiring and humbly happy dude. From just 20 minutes of knowing him before a set, I found a good friend. I inspire to bring that vibe to everyone I meet now. Thank you and Rest In Peace angel 🙏
"i got all the time in the world... so for now im just chillin..." i didn't know he died, i dont live under a rock but i didn't give me any time to listen to him and i came here, found an awsome edit about some really good rap and while i read the comments i found out that he died... just... no.... why...

one thing about mac, he made music for himself, the subtleties, the attention to detail. he made the music he loved and we all followed. rest in peace brother. memento mori.
never felt so impacted by someone’s death, someone i didn’t even know personally. mac really was someone special. he was a part of us. i swear there’s not a day that goes by where i don’t think of him & miss him. thank u for sharing ur story & music w us mac, keep swimming 💙
Mac is definitely an enigma. Listened to all of his shit. Clearly had issues but was equal parts talented and good-hearted . All of his music has something for you if you really listen .
Listening to Mac helped me through so much. Built my life around Mac and he’s gone 😔 been 2 years tomorrow. but I’m thankful he left some of the greatest music ever with us. Truly a great. Rest in peace Mac
Why did I start listening to him the day he died. It was like yesterday I remember walking and getting into my car, opening twitter and seeing the news. Then "best day ever" was all I could listen to, truly amazing rapper. rip Mac

When I first heard the beat switch into the Oblivion part... The natural high was something else. All the trees seemed brighter and the mountains and skyscrapers seemed to fade away. RIP Mac.
I just realized this song is about self medicating and being high as fuck. i never really thought about the lyrics before. He died from self medicating
He died because he took oxy, xanax, cocaine, and alcohol all at the same time. Thats just too much to do, and the oxy wasnt even oxy it was just fent but most "blues" are. Just cant take everything
my family was a big fan of mac, even my mom liked his music cause of my brother. when they found out that he died. they were devastated, and I felt bad cause I never really listened to his music and felt comfort like they did. rest in piece mac. thank you for putting comfort into my family from day 1.
I remember listening to this song high as shit in my bedroom and it sounded extremely similar to this. Thanks Mac and thanks to the person who made this for bringing back and creating some great memories
I listen to music 24/7, I couldn't tell you how many songs I've heard in my life but what I can tell you is that Malcom is truly one of the best and most lasting in my memory. He's beyond skilled at showing his pain through his music yet no one gave him the true helping hand he needed. His music speaks to so many because they're raw and genuine emotions, unlike alot of new artist nowadays. R.i.p an angel, to anyone reading this with any sort of mental pain, please talk to someone
The fact that I used this sound religiously at one point and literally got everything that I wanted. Manifestation is real people. It’s time to wake up. The power is in your hands. Use it. Live it. Believe it. Now.
This album came out about a month before I went to prison last year and I sang this song every day for 6 months I can't believe this song got me threw it #RipMac 🙏
Oh dear god.. I’ve been listening to Mac since birth.. he was a HUGE part of my childhood. My mom saw him before he was big. Just when he was a kid :( she said he was amazing. There was only like a few hundred at that concert.. wish I could’ve been there..
RIP Mac personally will always remember kids and just starting to smoke and every session being such a big deal. Looking back it was really all about the friends. I feel like mac was one of my friends. RIP brother, love to him, his family, and everyone that remembers him.
His death to me is like a huge accident I always try to find a way to prevent, but you can’t. I get so frustrated like I could’ve controlled the situation and made sure he made it out alive. There’s so much frustration for me when it comes to his death and I feel so selfish, I couldn’t imagine what his family feels. I just miss him so fucking much. I love him so fucking much, it’s weird knowing you could care about so much you never even knew. .. his presence will forever be on this earth. I miss you mac. XOXOXO
Recently got into mac last summer when my boy was bumpin him on the way to the beach. You can relate to his vibe, his emotions and soul in his songs man. If you're reading this, you're missed man.
David Castro definitely right . The original vocals would be way better i dont like when people slow the vocals it doesnt even sound like him anymore smh
When he said....now I know that the medicine be on call... He literally was saying he knew he was gonna OD he was writing for a state of being dead and realizing now he's gone thattha being rich gave you access all the Drugs(medicine) to fix your pain... Then he goes into oblivion an he then knows he over done it but.... Now he knows it's so sad Mac wrote this album as a suicide note.
Its all good. He probably didnt mind dying. You dont do hard drugs and not know what can come of it. I am an addict and always will be so i know whats up. We can always be recovering but we will never forget the feeling
