Goldlink is currently facing backlash for a lengthy post he made on his Instagram account about the late Mac Miller. In his post, he talks about how he and Mac Miller weren’t always on the best of terms while he was still here. He then went into talking about when the two of them toured together on the “GO:OD AM Tour.”
Goldlink continued to talk about how Mac Miller dropped his 2016 project “The Divine Feminine” after he heard his “And After That, We Didn’t Talk,” project. He said, “I released it under the ‘Soulection’ label and the single for my album was called ‘Unique’ ft. Anderson Paak, and that was your favorite song at the time. You loved it so much that you made the entire tour party listen to it, and surprised me with a cake after my set. I always thought you drove yourself insane about your own music. So much that, you would adopt styles as homage to those around you that you loved. That’s where our problem started. Divine Feminine was an actual blueprint of ‘and after that, we didn’t talk’.”
Anderson. Paak was not here for Goldlink’s message, and in a now-deleted Instagram post, he responded and said, “Maybe your belt was wrapped around your Gotdamn waist too tight or maybe it was the choker cutting off the circulation off to the brain but since you felt it necessary to bring me up twice and my boy ain’t here to respond ima say it like this. You ain’t the first to make an album inspired by a relationship, you ain’t the first to make a song featuring Anderson .Paak but you are the first to disrespect my friend who is no longer here for absolutely no reason and I can’t stand for that.”
Goldlink has not responded to Anderson. Paak as of yet, but people on social media are definitely not here for his comments.
