Mac Miller fans have been blessed with a never-before-heard performance from the late musician, courtesy of Thundercat.
The Brainfeeder bass player has released a new single called “She Knows Too Much,” which features smooth vocals and a slick guest verse from Mac.
Produced by Grammy-winning hitmaker Greg Kurstin, the funky, upbeat track reunites the close friends and collaborators for an ode to falling in love with a woman only to realize she’s a no-good gold digger.
“You got trouble payin’ rent now / Live in an apartment, I can take you to the penthouse / Got a step child, gone like exile / Make me say, ‘Woo!’ every time you pull your breasts out / I’m feelin’ left out / When you’re stressed out / I know you say it’s true love, but why you always hit me when the check bounce?” Mac spits.
“She Knows Too Much” is accompanied by a trippy music video directed by Léa Esmaili, which brings the song to life through various animated formats.
“I’m grateful to have spent my time on this planet with Mac,” Thundercat said of the track in a press release. “What an artist, what a spirit, what a joy to have experienced.”
He added in a heartfelt Instagram post: “What can I say about Mac Miller that hasn’t been said, shared & explored with you all. I always considered Mac a ‘one man rat pack.’ Smooth like Frank, cool like Sammy, suave like Dean.
“I wish that you all could have been there with us the moment this song was created in his garage. Between [Mac Miller], [Taylor Graves], [Josh Berg] & I we all knew it was something special. So happy to be able to finally share!
“From Faces, to Swimming in Circles, to Ballonerism and beyond… long live Mac Miller!!!”
“She Knows Too Much” is the latest single from Thundercat’s new album Distracted, which is set to be released on April 3.
The follow-up to 2020’s It Is What It Is, the upcoming project will also feature appearances from A$AP Rocky, Lil Yachty, Flying Lotus, Tame Impala, Willow Smith and Channel Tres.
