West Coast rapper Anderson .Paak still misses everyone’s favorite late Pittsburgh hip-hop artist. The Dr. Dre protégé hit up social media this week to remember Mac Miller.

.Paak went to Instagram Tuesday (September 18) to wipe the page clean with the exception of a lone shot remembering MM.

On Sunday, the Pittsburgh Steelers remembered Mac during its home game.

Throughout the years, Miller has flexed his love for the Pittsburgh team.

Last week, reports claimed Mac’s music streams exploded following his shocking death.

Following the death of Mac Miller on Friday, on-demand streams of his music in the U.S. climbed by 970 percent, according to Nielsen Music. On Sept. 7, the hip-hop star’s catalog of songs earned 32.5 million streams (audio and video combined), up from 3.04 million on Sept. 6. Following nearly a full tracking week after his death, it’s expected that Miller’s catalog of songs and albums could impact Billboard’s charts next week (dated Sept. 22, reflecting the sales and streaming tracking week of Sept. 7-13).
