Mac Miller’s “Jet Fuel” Beat Was Originally Produced for Kendrick Lamar’s ‘DAMN.’
When Mac Miller’s Swimming came out in 2018, the last project he released during his lifetime, Steve Lacy was listed as a producer for the single “Jet Fuel.” In a recent interview with Vulture, Lacy shared that he produced the beat with DJ Dahi, however, it was originally intended for Kendrick Lamar’s 2017 LP, DAMN. “That beat actually came from a Kendrick Lamar session,” Lacy said. “Dahi and I, when we were working on DAMN., the first day I came through to work on that record, we just made beats. He’s so organized. He has all these different drum loops. He had that loop, and I did that groove, but Dot didn’t use it.

After breaking the record for the longest span logged between appearances on Billboard‘s Alternative Airplay chart by artists in a lead role, Kate Bush sets another record on the July 16-dated tally. Bush’s 1985 hit “Running Up That Hill (A Deal With God),” rejuvenated thanks to its sync in the fourth season of Netflix’s Stranger Things, lifts into the Alternative Airplay top 10 (13-9), marking her first top 10 on the chart since 1994, when “Rubberband Girl” spent its final week in the top 10 on the Jan. 8 list, after peaking at No. 7 in December 1993. Bush then went 28 years, five months one week between top 10s until the latest list. That’s the longest pause between top 10s in the chart’s 33-year history, exceeding the 14-year, six-month and one-week respite for The Strokes, whose “Bad D...
