]]> Macklemore is the last person we’d expect to drop a holiday jingle, but he decided to surprise us with a Christmas miracle. The music video for his latest song “It’s Christmas Time” is here, and we promise it will melt your heart.

The famous rapper decided to record this song because he always saw himself as “the second grown rap version of Kevin McCallister”, and he decided to fully tap into the Christmas spirit. The festive video isn’t filled with signature Home Alone shenanigans, but it’s still pretty amazing.

Macklemore only makes a couple of brief appearances in the video and lets a group of kids shine in the spotlight. They’re seen enjoying a series of fun holiday activities, including ice skating and snowball fights.

The “Thrift Store” singer said he wanted to celebrate the true purpose and meaning of Christmas with this song, which also featured the appearance from British R&B singer Dan Caplen – “To give, to celebrate and to take back that sweater and end up with store credit at Macy’s.”

]]> The world of music lost a bright star on Friday.

Rapper Mac Miller — whose real name is Malcolm James McCormick — was found dead in his California home at the age of 26.

The What’s the Use? rapper released 5 studio albums during his lifetime and also launched his own record label, REMember.

Following a statement by his family confirming his death, fellow musicians and other stars paid tribute to the late artist.

Amongst them was Chance the Rapper who revealed that Mac had helped launch his career:

John Mayer, who played guitar on Small Worlds from Mac’s latest album, Swimming, shared a blank page to express his sadness:

Macklemore acknowledged his own struggle with substance abuse, which Mac shared, saying he is “shaken that someone who had such a light can be taken from this world so easily.”

Such a genuine person. Brilliant sense of humor. A true artist. Your spirit is what impressed me the most. The energy you brought to any space you were in. Contagious. You reached out to me at times when others didn’t. You were human. And we shared the same disease. A disease that is out to kill us, and when left untreated eventually will. I’m shaken. Shaken that someone who had such a light can be taken from this world so easily. It could have been me too many times to count. On the surface people that appear to have it all, are not exempt from the gravity and cunning nature of this disease. If you’re in the midst of addiction tell someone what’s going on. Don’t be a secret. Go to a 12 step meeting. Introduce yourself and you’ll be greeted with love and understanding from people that are fighting the same battle. Surrender. There are many paths, but it’s the only thing that has worked for me. I’m scared. Scared of how real this all is. Life and death. Beyond sad. Such a beautiful soul. Sending love to family, friends and everyone whose life was better because of your presence on this earth. Rest In Peace Mac 💔

RIP, Mac.
