Mac Miller’s campaign leading up to his debut album, Blue Slide Park which dropped today, has been very strong. He's released two mixtapes, music videos with countless YouTube hits, and gained a million plus followers on Twitter—and that’s only a part of the hype. His album is projected to sell 100k in the first week, which is a huge accomplishment these days. And like many of the young rappers today, we think Mac Miller has style.
Touring around and staying fresh isn’t easy. Mac Miller switches his gear constantly, but stays dipped in streetwear. Like his fellow Steel City rapper Wiz Khalifa, he endorses a lot of independent brands along with major players. Check the dope 'fits for yourself in A History of Mac Miller’s Streetwear Co-Signs.
