GoldLink Letter To Mac Miller- What Does It Say?
GoldLink’s letter on Instagram to the late artist Mac Miller attracted the attention of various fans and followers.
His letter on Instagram stated, Mac was troubled and it was not surprising at all to learn about his death. He also pointed out the two artists were not on their best terms and he did not have many good things to say about Miller.
GoldLink has also said that Miller was insane about his own music and to the point of adopting styles of homage to those around him and that he loved.
In his lengthy letter, the rapper wrote about Miller’s album Divine Feminism and claimed it to be the plague that was also the seed of them not having a good term and not speaking about each other according to his Instagram post.
He has also called Mac his brother and has shared some good memories as well in the letter, but was outweighed by the disrespect, narcissism, and jealousy according to HITC.
