And the So It Goes rapper appeared to have predicted his own demise in his most recent music video, for the track Self Care.
In the video, released in July this year, the ex-boyfriend of Ariana Grande raps while lying in a coffin.

Too young: The music world was rocked when it learned Mac Miller passed away at the age of 26 following an alleged drug overdose
In the clip's most chilling moment, Miller -whose real name is Malcolm McCormick- carves the words 'Memento mori' into the lid of the casket - which is Latin for 'Remember that you have to die'.
The clip depicts Mac trying to break out of his cramped tomb using only a flashlight, a knife and his fist.
While rapping, he lights a cigarette before carving the Latin phrase into the wood above him.
The Donald Trump artist then begins punching a hole through the wood, before digging his way out of a pile of dirt.
However his escape is short-lived, as a massive explosion apparently claims the singer's life anyway.

Tragedy: The rapper's body was found in a bedroom at his home in the San Fernando Valley outside Los Angeles around noon on Friday. Seen here in June 2016
The rapper's body was found in a bedroom at his home in the San Fernando Valley outside Los Angeles around noon on Friday. He was pronounced dead at the scene by paramedics, according to a report by TMZ.
It is believed Miller died from a drug overdose but dispatch audio from when a male friend alerted authorities describes him as having suffered a cardiac arrest.
Just after 2pm local time Friday a coroner arrived at Miller's Studio City home, and the body was seen being carted out just before 4pm.

The artist was notably linked to the singer Ariana Grande, who ended their two year relationship back in May and got engaged to comedian Pete Davidson just one month later.
A statement from Miller's family said: 'Malcolm McCormick, known and adored by fans as Mac Miller, has tragically passed away at the age of 26. He was a bright light in this world for his family, friends and fans. Thank you for your prayers. Please respect our privacy. There are no further details as to the cause of his death at this time.'
In the wake of Miller's death many have pointed to his recent split from Grande as what led to his overdose.
However, he had been fighting a battle with substance abuse long before he even met the songstress - which has been documented extensively in the media as well as in his own music.

Speaking from the heart: The lyrics of Self Care seem to directly reference Malcolm's struggles with addiction
In fact, the lyrics of Self Care seem to directly reference Malcolm's struggles with addiction.
At one point he sings, 'We spend our nights all liquored up, our mornings high. Can you feel it now?'
In multiple interviews Miller spoke about how he'd started using drugs including cocaine and opiates when he was just 15 years old.

During his 2012 Macadelic Tour, the artist became addicted to 'purple drank' or 'lean' - a drug concoction of promethazine and codeine - but managed to quit after noticing how it had taken over his life.
'I love lean; it’s great. I was not happy and I was on lean very heavy. I was so f**ked up all the time it was bad. My friends couldn’t even look at me the same. I was lost,' he told Complex in 2013.
It wasn't until earlier this summer that his addiction problems made headlines again, when Miller was arrested for driving drunk and crashing his SUV in Los Angeles just one week after his break up with Grande.
He was convicted in that incident last month.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
