First posthumous music from Mac Miller released

The first posthumous music from Mac Miller has been released.

The late rapper, who died last September at the young age of just 26, recorded a verse for The Free Nationals' song Time, which also features the vocals of Kali Uchis.

In the song, Miller raps about the difficulties of being in an imperfect relationship and the lies couples tell one another.

At one point, he raps: "But don't leave me, don't leave me/ Because it feel too good to be easy (Yeah)/ It's been a while, and I'm even different now."

The Free Nationals, aka Anderson .Paak's backing band, appeared at a memorial concert in honor of the rapper last October.

Stars from the music world came out to pay their respects to the late rapper by performing covers of his much-loved songs at the Greek Theatre in Los Angeles, backed by The Free Nationals.

The 'A Celebration of Life' benefit, which also saw the likes of Donald Glover and Pharrell Williams honor the hip-hop star, was reported to have made around $350,000 for The Mac Miller Circles Fund. It was set-up in memory of the Come Back To Earth rapper to provide funding and resources to underprivileged youths desperate to explore the arts in his hometown of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
