THE MORE PEOPLE THAT COME

TOGETHER, THAT MAKES IT MORE

POWERFUL.

BRAINCHILD OF KYLE HOLBROOK,

HUMAN TOWARD MAC MILLER WHEN

THEY PAINTED THIS MURAL IN 2008.

HE NEVER FORGOT IT.

HE MENTIONED ON HIS MTV SHOW

WHAT MLK MURAL DID FOR HIM.

I KNEW THAT HE WAS GOING TO BE

A STAR.

Reporter: HE WAS A STAR,

SELLING HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS

OF ALBUMS, ALL THE WHILE

PROMOTING HIS HOMETOWN OF

PITTSBURGH

YOU NEVER FORGOT, A SUPER

HUMBLE PERSON AND HE ALWAYS

RIPPED THE CITY.

AND I THINK THAT HE IS SOMEONE

THAT YOU CAN BE PROUD OF NO

MATTER WHERE YOU ARE.

Reporter: HE DIED FROM AN

OVERDOSE.

HOLBROOK BELIEVES MILLER DID

NOT DIE IN VAIN.

HOW FAMOUS HE WAS AND HIS

STATURE AS FAR AS THE MILLIONS

OF FANS AROUND THE WORLD,

PEOPLE WHO HAVE HAD THOSE

PROBLEMS CAN BE MORE AWARE OF

WHAT CAN HAPPEN.

Reporter: HE BROUGHT A

COMMUNITY TOGETHER.

YOUNG AND NOT SO YOUNG ARE

PAINTING MESSAGES ON THIS

MURAL.

BUT, THIS IS JUST THE

UNDERPAINTING.
