Aug. 8, 2019 | Bobby Carter -- Today, Aug. 8, marks the one-year anniversary of when NPR Music published the late Mac Miller's Tiny Desk. Last week, Ty Dolla $ign visited NPR headquarters to record a fantastic Tiny Desk concert of his own that will air in its entirety soon. But once we wrapped the taping, something special happened: I reminded Ty that he sat at the desk almost a year to the day that his friend, Mac, delivered what would be one of his final performances.
The band paused and huddled. They mulled over a few notes in a matter of seconds then gave me a signal that they were ready. The room was silenced and the cameras started rolling again.
Here's Ty performing a moving rendition of his 2016 collaboration with Mac, "Cinderella" from Mac's fourth studio album, The Divine Feminine. Ty's flanked by two close friends of Mac, Thundercat on bass and Justus West on guitar, both of whom played at the Tiny Desk with the Pittsburgh-born rapper a year ago.
SET LIST
"Cinderella"
MUSICIANS
Ty Dolla $ign: vocals; Thundercat: bass; Justus West: guitar; Cory Henry: keys; Aliandro Prawl: keys; Mike Moore: drums; Ant Clemons: vocals

Seeing thundercat without a smile on his face simply hurts.
💔
true dat
kaj konings whos that
@@golden6335 The bassist
Probably one of the baddest on the planet
"That's Thundercat on the shaker." - Mac
To everyone who has commented, you are awesome.
😂 the laugh they had when he said that.. just friends making music
"Let me tell you something about music man.."
Beautiful job, bro, it's beautiful 😂
"Banter, banter, banter..."
Bro...
My man on that guitar just put his heart into that solo and no one sees this he’s literally tearing up putting so much emotion into this because it’s not just another play through it’s the last one ever
Bro thats thundercat, have some respect.
ronald bangtidy no it's not
ronald bangtidy he’s talking about Justus west on guitar, not thundercat on bass
ronald bangtidy eek don’t disrespect
You said it right bud.
Everyone talking about thundercat but man Justus west poured his heart into that shit. That moment of silence at the end you can tell everyone is still hurting over his death.
dcantiporda Justus definitely made that guitar cry for all of us..
And we all understood and felt that pain from emptiness that we all have.....R.I.P. MAC MUCH LOVE!!
Never heard one artist say a bad word about Mac even before he passed. That is probably his legacy
He was a real one, he just had his own demons.
Wiz Khalifa on the breakfast club kinda threw some shade at him.
@@yoooooooooojeff when?

Was real DOPE SPIRIT
I still watch the Mac Miller tiny desk concert monthly. It's more than just a video. It's a time capsule.
Edit : Thank you for all the replies over the months people. You guys kept bringing me back and I'm grateful for it.
I watch it daily.
Youre so right
Same
agreed
I´m with you on this. I just watch it and think that we did not knew that the worst was yet to come...
2:15 - 2:24 sounds like he's weeping with his guitar. Such an emotional sound.
WHereTHeWIldTHingsAReNOt more like weeping through his guitar 🥀
I was
I come back to this video just to hear that sound. Beautifully sad
WHereTHeWIldTHingsAReNOt never thought emotion could be so accurately represented through an instrument
The guitar playing in this really reminded me of Maggot Brain by Funkadelic, another beautiful song.
I never heard a guitar cry like that. Holy sjit. God rest Mac's soul.
this is first time that I hear Ty Dolla without autotune. He has unbelievable voice.
Ty Dolla $ is underrated AF as far as natural singing voice
Saw him in concert and he was actually better sounding than this! He has a amazing voice. Chill dude also respect.
Unbelievably awful
im sure he was inspired by Mac to sing.
Fr tho . Mad respect
I vote NPR hangs the "Don't Trip" hat Mac had on during his performance on the shelves
Excent I SECOND THAT BOTE
I third that vote
Fourth that
I'd buy that fucking hat even if it was $1,000
Mike Posner it’d be more than that
The way he made that guitar cry... he put everything into that guitar solo. It brings tears to my eyes. RIP Mac
My guy Justus on the guitar is saying something special with that solo, talking a type of love we wish we could comprehend , it’s poetry communicating a beautiful understanding . Music is a Beautiful thing , yours is Loved Mac .
His real tribute to the miller... i feel your pain guitar man
ruben villa like foreal what a solo propas G 🙏
thundercat on the base😪🔥
Homie on guitar was his touring guitarist I believe.
thank you
this.
This group is STACKED. Thundercat, Cory Henry and Justus West, some serious talent right there. Ty$ killing it on vocals too. This is gonna be on repeat.
Supetstacked jeez
Facts!!!!
damn i never peeped thats Cory Henry
Specks I just peeped that today also bro
Shut up we know who they are stop bragging
Wasn’t expecting them to leave Mac’s verse and it totally hit me. Left out like the hole he left in the world when he passed. Irreplaceable.
Ty’s vocals are severely underrated. Go listen to some of his solo projects and you’ll get a whole different perspective of how good of an artist he is.
He's vocals aren't underrated lol he's everywhere in the industry for a reason. One of the best voices in RnB period.
Cameron Stanton underrated by the consumers. He’s very underrated. You’re talking about the industry I’m talking about fans.
id agree...hella underrated
Yeah, his voice is great, and I’ve been a fan since his first releases. But am kind of sad he had to look at lyrics for one of his more popular songs, especially since he is tributing it for someone. Mac sang 3 songs perfectly off memorized lyrics and was still having tons of fun with it and didn’t make a single mistake.
Youre right its underrated I only knew that he rap and I just discover that he can sing when he did a riff and run on ariana grande's safety net
"music is a beautiful thing"
Let me tell you something about music 🎵
Banter banter banter
"She tell me that I get 'er high cuz an angel's sposed to fly"
@@danieltlfi71 is beautiful thing
no one:
thundercat 'thank you'
thunder cat and ty hugging at the end had me choking up
Hurts
You could feel the emotion the whole time it was not hard to.
The whole thing was emotional but that was my breaking point
I always manage to hold it together until that part
"music is a beautiful thing" - Mac Miller.
That guitar solo is hauntingly beautiful.
At the very mention of Mac’s name, all of these artists would stop what they’re doing and pay tribute. This Tiny Desk - one of the very last stops for Mac - felt extra heavy today.
Got me balling me eyes out dude, fuck man, miss him so much😞

Thank you ty dolla sign for this I think every Mac fan needed this
AGREED
Didn’t even realize it
True
True
lol dude. wth?!!
Don't forget a shout out to the drummer for knowing his place in a smooth soft rendition of a song like this. So many drummers don't know how to chill out and just vibe.
Damn. What an emotional guitar solo.. straight from the soul.
Here for Thundercat on that bass all day too 💯
Melissa Hillman yesss!!! 🙌
Big ass bass, tiny desk 😎🙄
likin the pink locks too
Melissa Hillman You fuckin up if you don’t know who Cory Henry is. Most talented member is the band hands down.
@@carrico504 Well, I guess I'm fuckin up too, 'cause who's Cory Henry? What is he playin'?
"Music is a beautiful thing..lemme tell you something about Music (mac laughs..) it's beautiful.." 👍🏊..
Thank you NPR for getting Mac's crew to play along with TY$.. this was trully priceless.
To the brother Justus West on the guitar..I feel you and I hope you found comfort in your solo.. Mac left more friends than fans in this world..
❤️ perfectly said
I dunno if you are right, but your words almost stole a tear from me
This was deep. I think you may be right. Feel like I was his friend without ever meeting him. Much love
Its a beautiful thing ha
As a fan of Mac. When he passed it felt like I lost a friend. I know that sounds silly but it’s what I felt
RIP Mac Miller imagine how much amazing music he would have created by now
we going to get maclib soon
love
I don't think people realize the musical talent in this group right here. pure artist's
Aside everything, can we please take a second and appreciate the exceptional guitar-playing on this beautiful Abasi?
Omg.... Yesss he put his heart into that, you can tell it meant something special to him.. It was the best part of it. IMO
Justus West was on Mac's Tiny Desk concert one year ago. Watching him play here was like a case study on conviction and passion
Thundercat
@@wil-cw7vg didn't see him playing his solo as i was writing this comment. obviously, all of them are amazingly good. Justus West just instantly caught my attention, as i'm a long-term guitarist myself, probably not as gifted as a single one involved.
@@wil-cw7vg Thundercats awesome but OP meant the guitarist. He's got a Tosin Abasi signature guitar, which is a guitar by Animals as Leaders' guitarist Tosin Abasi.
guitarist was pouring his heart out this set. big ups to him and the rest of the crew that swung by.
it's Justus West, dude is wild
Listening to this gives me an abnormal wave of peace and also an underlying tone of every type of sadness I’ve ever felt.
This is the most perfect way to describe it
Wow. This.
I'm still in so much pain, that Mac isn't here with us anymore. But he will always be with us in our ears, memory & nostalgia, souls & hearts. Rest easy Mac, I hope your chilling & laughing with all of your favourite musical artists & friends. Legends never die! Love from an Icelandic fan.
I really appreciate your comment.
carero22 thanks buddy, hope your doing well 💙
I still get teary eyed when I think about Mac, I’ve been listening since I was like 13 and I’m 22 now
Kelly O'Brien fr bro literally helped me evolve as a person
Same. My sister used to play Knock Knock on repeat and it annoyed the hell out of me but I started listening to Mac because of that and now, all these years later, it's me playing his music on repeat Haha. His death was the first time an artist died and made me feel something about it
Same bro. Literally.
Hope we all flourish
Same..as he progressed through his life I feel like we had similar evolutions. Felt like I lost a good friend the day Mac died.
Mad respect for Ty Dolla $ign,
R.I.P. Mac ❤✌
WeJammin and thunder cat
Shaad yes and thundercat❤️ when I saw him live he did dedicated a song to him and the crowd was on another level
“It’s a beautiful thing man, it’s a beautiful thing. Lemme tell you something about music” -Mac Miller
Seeing the emotion and pain fill the room the second they stop playing and look up from their instruments still hits hard
How is it possible to miss someone you didnt know, Im crying over someone ive never known. Ive seen him live once and it was magical, what a legend rip man.
SAme...
Mac said you best get to know him if you listen to his music, so he was no stranger to you ❤️
Mac has shared his emotions through his music so good that we felt it as it were our own
I never got to see him live and this is my biggest regret
@@youngmac6777 same
guitarist in the flow state is sublime thooo. 'it's a beautiful thing man, music is a beautiful thing'
It is no coincidences we all find our way back to Mac Miller's music around the time of his passing. Rest in paradise Mac, thank you for the memories and watching over us
anotha year later it still hits the same, rip mac time flies
“Music is a beautiful thing.”
My boy on the guitar just felt it and killed it much love to my brother mac 😪
Much as his fans mourn his loss, you can't help but see how desperately Thundercat misses his friend.

ty was feelin himself on this one, his vocals were straight from heaven. rip mac miller one of the greatest ever
Never would have thought “Cinderella” would mean so much to me when I first heard but this something so truly special to me. Thanks NPR
Just casually crying my eyes out on a Thursday morning, it's fine
Heck yea
And here I am On a Thursday night doing the same thing
That is fine 💙
Beautiful... Amazing performance from the whole group
RIP Mac 😞
Friday morning for me, doing the same thing 😔
my heart sank listening to this. it hurts so bad seeing thundercat not smiling, and watching how emotional justus got simply playing in honor of Mac. i have so much love for all these people in my heart. rest easy Mac. we all miss you ❤️
the guitar makes me wanna cry, you can hear the pain on this tribute.. IT HURTS
Was i the only one who imagined Mac singing his verse after Ty?
Jonathan Cazares No, you aren’t. I even started singing it for him. 😭
The electric guitar gave me chills. So much emotion.
Me, a 27 year old man watching this in 2024 absolutely weeping as if i knew Mac like a best friend. Such an amazing person.
My heart. I can’t understand. I’m feeling so much pain over someone I never met.
I’m sitting in my car, at work, on my break… crying.
I love you Mac. I can’t explain it. Just love so much love ❤️
Understanding every bit of this. I hope you’ve felt better in the days to follow. This performance, and our feelings, show that nothing could ever take him away.. not even a vacation beyond where we could reach. He’s loved, and will always be, forever.
ty dolls sign is something else for doing this. much respect
Dude on the guitar was speaking to my soul on this one. Absolutely beautiful performance all around. Mac smiling down on this one.
"The world is so small, til it ain't. I building up a wall, til it break." I still watch Mac's tiny desk concert.
Damn this hurts. Hearing the empty space where his voice should be is haunting
as time goes by you realise how many people mac really influenced and was close with in the music industry
Every day you just see the impact Mac had on all these artists!
and people want that unreleased mac shit....just watch the art evolve
Not really
Just here 5 years late and cryin like it just happened
I keep coming back just to watch Justus' solo. phenomenal.
I love Ty. His voice is unmatched in the industry. Originality is key in the industry.
Wrong. Connections is key. You can be as original as you want, but if you don't know certain people who can put you in certain positions, you won't get where you wanna be in any form of the entertainment industry.
Anthony Barnes 2 not about wrong or right. You have a very well articulated point. Thanks for sharing!
Wow Ty Dolla sign is here, his voice is touching..I hope you rest peacefully up there Mac.
Today is the day to remember more than ever Mac and this magnificent song. RIP MAC and S/o to Ty and the musicians for this awesome tribute, wich is, for me, The most emmotional npr live performance i’ve ever watched.
RIP Mac we still ain’t forget you…….
who else started crying when the guitarist wiped his tears away
Rodrigues films me, it was really hard
Ugh broooo... I caught that right when I read your comment and tears came hard love from Pittsburgh yo
I missed it when was it?
I think I caught it at the end.
Rodrigues films started crying within the first 30 seconds
Listening to Mac, sometimes I just forget that he’s gone. This brought tears to my eyes. Thank You
If I ever feel like crying, I come back to this performance. Eyes start to get watery during the guitar solo.
Happy B-day Mac
I didn’t think I’d be crying at 6:20 in the morning thanks NPR
Facts
Shit I'm tearing up right now..
💯 facts!!!
I heard this went to macs npr Then came back here and BOOM whoa 😭
Man, where did all of this dust come from? Messing with my eyes...
I know right I’m like fuck lol
Deep souls, nothing but love
Thank you! RIP MAC MILLER, the artist!!!!
Yo I jam this every day, rest eazy mac , 🕯
Music is a beautiful thing man and this one is for mac miller, stay bright beautiful soul, somewhere
Thats so funny you say "its a beautiful thing" because thats exactly what Mac said in the NPR tiny desk concert in between songs
"It's a beautiful thing man, music is a beautiful thing. It's a beautiful thing baby, its a beautiful thing. Lemme tell you something about music, it's beautiful."

You're welcome
I just hope he can hear this...
It was wonderful
Just lost an old friend today. Had to come here to heal the pain. Life is fragile. Love everyone around you. You only get one chance...
Mac! Se te extraña güero! Pero siempre se vuelve aqui para q no sea tanto.
Oh man, Mac‘s tiny desk performance will always be my favorite video on UA-cam
4real !
1:50 that electric guitar goes crazyyyy
True
He's playing his heart out for Mac.
Yeah..maybe if I buy that guitar I could play like that too!
Mr. Chipz that guitarist *
Justus West don’t sleep on him
Thank you Ty Dolla I know Mac Miller lives thru you and many others who had a chance to work or listen to his work. I know Mac Miller looking down still amazed by your natural voice.. ty Dolla thank you and RIP Mac Miller
Year an year I’ll stop by here
I still can’t believe Mac is gone man.
Those are some big name musicians in the back , thunder cat ... Corey Henry , it needed to be done . RIP MAC
Ty voice getso so deep and emotional when he sings "tell your friends you gon be alright "
I love the fact that they left mac's verses be only spoken by mac, this is pure respect, pure love ❤️
That run at 01:18 gave me chills for some fuckin' reason.
Protect Ty at all costs. I repeat, protect this future legend.
With tears in my eyes this is beautiful, at first I was bummed he didn't rap Mac's part, but then it hit me. He's gone. Like gone gone. Everyday feels like it just happened. So thankful for him and this.
"Musics a beautiful thing.. Let me tell you something about music.. Its beautiful"
Another moment of dopeness for Malcom McCormick.
Started crying when their pure emotions came out in the end.
It's always so weird when you realise 90% of the times, the artist's voice is a thousand times more beautiful like this, without all the autotune and post-prod.... Makes you think
That’s why this concept is so golden.
Because you can hear the real emotion in their voice
Let this performance be what it is which is a tribute to a friend and not a complaint about an artist's artistic decision. Music isn't meant to please everybody, just to be heard by everybody.
@@ilovecody7514 no one is complaining at all, literally a compliment from the first comment lol
Ty$ is a genius and a real musician
man i’m here nearly 2 years since he’s left us and oh how i miss him. this performance just shows us how many people looked up to him and just how much of a talented sweet dude he was
I got goosebumps as soon as they started... Rest in power King, rest in power Malcolm James McCormick.
I've been wish to see Ty singing without auto-tune, and now I woke up to this!!! y'all blessed NPR
Then listen to "the other side"
@D r e a m c a t c h e r A lot of artists do it because they like how it sounds, like Ty and T-Pain. Most others use it because they actually can't sing. That's something you're probably already aware of though. I do understand where you're coming from though.
TacitSwine750 T-Pain’s tiny desk blew my mind. I had no idea he could sing like that.
Peagar ty$ really don’t even use auto tune especially when he first came out go listen to beach house 1
