United States rapper Mac Miller, whose debut album Blue Side Park topped the charts in 2011 and who dated singer Ariana Grande for a time, has died at the age of 26.
He was found around noon at his Fernando Valley home and pronounced dead at the scene, reports said.
Our thoughts are with Mac Miller, his family, friends and his fans.
Miller's most commercially successful album was his 2011 Blue Side Park which topped the charts. As fans of the couple may recall, Miller rushed to Grande's side in 2017 after a terrorist targeted one of her concerts in Manchester, killing 22 people, and stayed close to her in the months that followed.
The amount of tweets blaming Ariana Grande for what happened to Mac Miller is disgusting, his addiction and lack of help is what drove this to happen, don't point the finger and blame.

"I noticed there was a blank wall at McDonald's so I chose to make this fake poster of me and my friend", wrote Maravilla. They chose to take matters into their own hands, adding more diversity to the location's décor.
The influential rapper's fifth studio album Swimming was announced on 13 July and released early last month. Other social media users made sure to call out certain media outlets for describing Miller as Ariana Grande's ex-boyfriend instead of recognizing him for being a popular rapper in his own right. "I have cared for him and tried to support his sobriety and prayed for his balance for years (and always will, of course)". The album entered at number one on the Billboard 200.
Just Thursday, Vulture published a profile of Miller. "I was so f. up all the time it was bad". They're like 'Yo, man, are you okay?' I'm like 'Yeah, I'm f- at the grocery store.' You know? I didn't share how hard or scary it was while it was happening but it was.
Grande and McCormick were said to have remained friends after their nearly two year relationship ended.
Grande tweeted back in defence, "how absurd that you minimise female self-respect and self-worth by saying someone should stay in a toxic relationship because he wrote an album about them, which btw isn't the case (just Cinderella is ab me)". I wish it started tomorrow.
