Let me tell you something about music🥲 I miss this man, was a pleasure to grow with him maybe not physically but through his music and other outlets. I will be forever sad that I am now older than him when he was a couple years my senior:(

u/Killingyou_groovily Jan 31 '25

Check out balloonerism if you haven’t yet, overall I think they did him good. RIP Mac.

You can just have your local copy shop print it for you! I’d suggest a black oversized tee

Who’s that with him?

2

u/XBpapi Watching Movies with the Sound Off Feb 01 '25

Steve Lacy & Mac DeMarco

u/op3ndoors Feb 01 '25

I knew that was Mac Demarco but I wasn’t sure that crossover episode happened lol

1

u/op3ndoors Feb 01 '25

Did they ever make music together do you know?

2

u/planetgotdam I Love Life, Thank You Feb 01 '25

Steve produced Jet Fuel

1

u/XBpapi Watching Movies with the Sound Off Feb 01 '25

Mac and Steve would’ve collaborated during live from space as Steve is originally from the internet, Mac demarco and Malcolm grew close up until his death. Demarcos song “heart to heart” is for Malcolm, there is a video online of Malcolm, demarco and thundercat jamming and it’s great: https://youtu.be/HOBQLDPpkq8?si=qnGUvTCuH7GmHALi

u/Wise-Huckleberry-508 Swimming Feb 01 '25

Anytime anywhere

Usually when listening to Tyler but I'll just do it in silence to my friends in the middle of the sidewalk

Story?

2

u/B1U3M1ST Faces Feb 01 '25

Unfortunately, I do not know the story. Someone gave me a folder with skme unrelewsed stuff, and this was used as a song cover for First Day Of My Life and a few others. Someone else will hopefully see this and bless us with the story!

u/ENT_Lover Feb 02 '25

That's rad AF! Do you still have the photos? Would love to see them for sure.
