Mac Miller's parents will be at the Grammys to collect Best Rap Album award if the late rapper wins

Miller's album is going to be competing against Cardi B's 'Invasion of Privacy', Travis Scott's 'Astroworld', Nipsey Hussle's 'Victory Lap', and Pusha T's 'Daytona'

Mac Miller's parents will be the ones attending the Grammys this year instead of him. The late rapper, who is nominated for Best Rap Album, will have his parents Mark McCormick and Karen Meyers accept the award on his behalf in case he wins. Miller's album 'Swimming' was posthumously nominated for the award in December, three months after the 26-year-old died from an accidental overdose. This was the 'Self Care' hitmaker's first Grammy nomination.
