Maco passed away on Dec. 26, at 32 years old, after being hospitalized on Dec. 12 for a self-inflicted gunshot wound. Shortly after his death, the rap world came together to mourn him for his unforgettable music and impact. “What you’ve done in your life in your career have been really nothing short of amazing bro,” said popular hip-hop music executive Stevo in a video tribute to Maco. “You’re a legend. Nobody can take away from what you did for this game and the city of Atlanta.”
“You really cemented yourself as one of them ones,” he continued. “One of the smartest men I’ve ever been around. I traveled the world with you, I think 15 or 16 different countries. It’s so crazy because all of the places we went, you always knew something — the customs, the culture, the language, to impress me.”
