An album-by-album celebration of the life and music of Mac Miller through oral histories, intimate reflections, and critical examinations of his enduring work. “One of my most vivid memories of him is the way he would look at you while he was playing you a song. He tried to look you right in the eyes to see how you were feeling about it.” —Will Kalson, friend and first manager Following Mac Miller’s tragic passing in 2018, Donna-Claire Chesman dedicated a year to chronicling his work through the unique lens of her relationship to the music and Mac’s singular relationship to his fans. Like many who’d been following him since he’d started releasing mixtapes at eighteen years old, she felt as if she’d come of age alongside the rapidly evolving artist, with his music being crucial to her personal development. “I want people to remember his humanity as they’re listening to the music, to realize how much bravery and courage it takes to be that honest, be that self-aware, and be that real about things going on internally. He let us witness that entire journey. He never hid that.” —Kehlani, friend and musician. The project evolved to include intimate interviews with many of Mac’s closest friends and collaborators, from his Most Dope Family in Pittsburgh to the producers and musicians who assisted him in making his everlasting music, including Big Jerm, Rex Arrow, Wiz Khalifa, Benjy Grinberg, Just Blaze, Josh Berg, Syd, Thundercat, and more. These voices, along with the author’s commentary, provide a vivid and poignant portrait of this astonishing artist—one who had just released a series of increasingly complex albums, demonstrating what a musical force he was and how heartbreaking it was to lose him. “As I’m reading the lyrics, it’s crazy. It’s him telling us that he hopes we can always respect him. I feel like this is a message from him, spiritually. A lot of the time, his music was like little letters and messages to his friends, family, and people he loved, to remind them of who he really was.” —Quentin Cuff, best friend and tour manager.

The first biography of rapper Mac Miller, the Pittsburgh cult favorite-turned-rap superstar who touched the lives of millions before tragically passing away at the age of 26--now in paperback Malcolm James McCormick was born on January 19, 1992. He began making music at a young age and by 15 was already releasing mixtapes. One of the first true viral superstars, his early records earned him a rabid legion of die-hard fans--as well as a few noteworthy detractors. But despite his undeniable success, Miller was plagued by struggles with substance abuse and depression, both of which fueled his raw and genre-defying music yet ultimately led to his demise. Through detailed reporting and interviews with dozens of Miller''s confidants, Paul Cantor brings you to leafy Pittsburgh, seductive Los Angeles, and frenzied New York, where you will meet Miller''s collaborators, producers, business partners, best friends, and even his roommates. Traveling deep into Miller''s inner circle, behind the curtain, the velvet ropes, and studio doors, Most Dope tells the story of a passionate, gifted young man who achieved his life''s ambition, only to be undone by his personal demons. Most Dope is part love letter, part cautionary tale, never shying away from the raw, visceral way Mac Miller lived his life. Advance Praise for Most Dope "A compelling and refreshingly honest tale of a rapper who forged a path to success on his own terms. Intersecting with Donald Trump, Rick Rubin, Kendrick Lamar, John Mayer, Jay-Z, and perhaps most famously Ariana Grande, Cantor pulls no punches, detailing Mac''s highs, lows, hard-earned triumphs, and self-inflicted tragedies." --Jonathan Shecter, founding editor of The Source "A painstaking portrait illuminating why Miller''s humility, humor, introspection, and sensitivity endeared him to millions, rendering his struggle with addiction--and ultimate death--frustrating and painful. Cantor admirably keeps Miller''s memory alive, both for dedicated fans and those just discovering this iconic figure." --Chris Morrow, coauthor of seven New York Times bestsellers, including Hustle Harder, Hustle Smarter with 50 Cent "Following Mac Miller from his early days as a charismatic teen rapper through all the twists and turns of his rich creative evolution, this expertly researched coming-of-age story details all the struggles and triumphs of Mac''s short life, painting a poignant portrait of a young man who craved respect and never stopped searching."--Brendan Frederick, executive at Genius and former editor at Complex and XXL "In this wrenching biography, Mac Miller ponders what it means to be invincible, a dangerous illusion to which all MCs are prone. Tracking Miller''s journey every step of the way, Cantor never flinches from the truth, just like his subject. Fair-minded, clear-eyed, fearless--Paul Cantor is the biographer Miller deserves." --Rob Kenner, author of The Marathon Don''t Stop: The Life and Times of Nipsey Hussle "Hilarious at times, heartbreaking at others, but gripping, poetic, and respectful throughout. Whether you''re a longtime fan or new to Mac''s universe, Cantor has your definitive starting point." --Justin Tinsley, senior writer at ESPN''s the Undefeated and host of the Nipsey Hussle podcast King of Crenshaw "In Mac Miller''s origin story, buckle in for a high-speed race and hold on to your seats through the tortuous twists and turns. . . . The perfect alchemy of rich history and fascinating storytelling voiced by the most important people in Mac''s life." --Evan Auerbach, UpNorthTrips, and coauthor of No Sleep: Nightlife Flyers 1988-1999 and Do Remember: The Golden Era of Hip-Hop Mixtapes in NYC "More than just a peek into Miller''s ''live fast, die young'' life, a deep dive into the young icon''s journey, with firsthand accounts of who Mac truly was. Thoroughly researched and detailed, Most Dope is an essential introduction." --Kathy Iandoli, author of Baby Girl: Better Known as Aaliyah and coauthor of Lil'' Kim''s The Queen Bee "Paul Cantor applies the rigor of a skillful journalist with the insight of a solid critic and the passion of a true fan to tell the story of a memorable rapper claimed by drug addiction before his time. . . . Via interviews with dozens closest to Miller, he makes us feel like we''re on the roller coaster with his subject and illuminates why Miller''s music means so much to so many." --Jim DeRogatis, cohost of Sound Opinions and author of Soulless: The Case Against R. Kelly

'A compelling tale beautifully told, Mr Mac & Me is as close to a perfect novel as anything I've read in a long time. I loved every page of it' Ann Patchett Set on the Suffolk coastline in 1914, a compelling story of an unlikely friendship from the Granta Best of Young British author of Hideous Kinky and The Sea House Thomas Maggs, the son of the local publican, lives with his parents and sister in a village on the Suffolk coast in 1914. He is the youngest child, and the only son surviving. Life is quiet – shaped by the seasons, fishing and farming and the summer visitors. Then one day a mysterious Scotsman arrives. To Thomas he looks for all the world like a detective, in his black cape and hat of felted wool, and the way he puffs on his pipe as if he's Sherlock Holmes. Mac is what the locals call him when they whisper about him in the inn. And whisper they do, for he sets off on his walks at unlikely hours, and stops to examine the humblest flowers. He is seen on the beach, staring out across the waves as if he's searching for clues. But Mac isn't a detective. He's the architect Charles Rennie Mackintosh, and together with his red-haired artist wife, they soon become a source of fascination and wonder to Thomas. Yet just as Thomas and Mac's friendship begins to blossom, war with Germany is declared. The summer guests flee and are replaced by regiments of soldiers on their way to Belgium, and as the brutality of war weighs increasingly heavily on this coastal community, they become more suspicious of Mac and his curious behaviour... In this tender and compelling story of an unlikely friendship, Esther Freud paints a vivid portrait of a home front community during the First World War, and of a man who was one of the most brilliant and misunderstood artists of his generation.
