SZA, John Mayer at Miller concert

Event was held to raise funds for arts education in underserved communities

The life of the late rapper Mac Miller was remembered with a benefit concert to raise funds for arts education in underserved communities.

Chance the Rapper, John Mayer and SZA performed yesterday the Mac Miller: A Celebration of Life concert at the Greek Theater in Los Angeles. The benefit concert launched the Mac Miller Circles Fund in honour of the hiphop star.

Paramedics found the 26-year-old Miller unresponsive in his home last month and declared him dead soon after. No cause of death has been announced after an autopsy was performed.

Miller’s rhymes often dealt with his depression and drug use.

The lineup also included Travis Scott, Miguel, Ty Dolla $ign, ScHoolboy Q, Anderson .Paak, Earl Sweatshirt, Vince Staples and Action Bronson. —
