“Mac was one of the nicest, coolest dudes man. This is sad man,” Questlove said on Twitter. Rapper Wiz Khalifa added, “Praying for Mac’s family and that he rest easy.”
Chance the Rapper mourned the loss of the man who took him “on my second tour ever.”
“But beyond helping me launch my career he was one of the sweetest guys I ever knew,” he said. “Great man. I loved him for real. Im completely broken. God bless him.”
