Mac Miller, otherwise known as Malcom McCormick, died on September 7, 2018, at the age of just 26.
Prior to his death, Mac was famously in a relationship with fellow musician Ariana Grande, who had supported him throughout his struggles before they split earlier that same year.
Both stars had discussed his drug problem publicly in the past, with the rapper previously telling Billboard in 2015 that he wasn’t “completely sober”, but was better than he had been in the years prior.

The rapper boasted an incredible successful music career in the US and was increasingly popular in the UK too, with a number of chart-topping albums and sell out shows in his name.

Although the pair went their separate ways, the former power couple continued to support one another as much as possible.
The artist even performed alongside Ariana for her One Love Manchester show following the shocking terror attack back in 2017 where they performed their collaborative song The Way and My Favourite Place together.
Sadly, Mac died of an accidental overdose the following year after drinking a cocktail of fentanyl, cocaine and alcohol, toxicologists confirmed.
The autopsy also described Mac’s impressive collection of tattoos and marked them with diagrams, with one eerily saying Only so much time left in this crazy world”, according to AP News.
It also said that Mac had a bloody nostril and a scrape on his nose, and had been found with his head resting on his knees.

But it appeared as though the rapper had planned for his untimely death as the star left his $9million (£6.9million) fortune in his will in the wake of his shocking death.
Following his devastating passing, the rapper’s family received all his assets, including his properties and cash after he named his parents Karen Meyer and Mark McCormick and brother Miller McCormick as sole beneficiaries.
However, his will was filed on November 12, 2013, in Los Angeles before he really soared to fame, meaning the three family members received far more after his net worth catapulted five years after signing the document.
According to Press Association, Mac’s lawyer David Byrnes was named as the trustee who will oversee his estate.

After the news of his death hit headlines all over the world, the Thank U, Next singer shared an emotional clip of her ex-boyfriend talking and smiling on Instagram.
Next to the sweet footage, she penned: “I adored you from the day I met you when I was nineteen and I always will.
“I can’t believe you aren’t here anymore. I really can’t wrap my head around it. We talked about this. So many times. I’m so mad, I’m so sad I don’t know what to do.
