Why it gotta be this way man!? It's like he's speaking from the grave, and it's impossible to not hear posthumous music that way, but damn.Ĭan I get a break? I wish I could just get out my goddamn way, what is there to say? There aint nothing better than today. He was a prodigy and matured into a complete work-horse of a musician. Compare this to almost any other posthumous album. He'd have made like 20+ albums, and probably has half as much in the vault. Existence took em too soon because otherwise it wouldn't have been fair for anyone else, he was made of music. Dude was on his Bob Dylan/Beatles/ballad shit on this and I love it. So many of these songs are like suicide notes/ruminations on death. This man knew he was leaving the earth one way or another soon. Has any rapper at Mac’s level of fame ever evolved so quickly? It’s such a tragedy we lost him, man was truly ascending. What a great album to finish his discography.Įdit: After 3 listens, this is a masterpiece for any Mac fan and hopefully many others. I didn't know the guy and it crushes me listening to it. I can't imagine how hard finishing this was for his family and Jon Brion. Guitar Case was one of my favourites and I'm happy they finished it. I listened to all of them many times over the last few months and these sound like completely new songs (besides Good News which was already perfect). I also am surprised how well they reworked all the leaks. There isn't a single song I don't like on here, but some standouts for sure are Hand Me Downs, Blue World, Good News, Woods and Hands.
#RIP MAC MILLER PATCH FULL#
It is full of relief and self realization compared to the doubt and fear that Swimming conveys. Circles is the perfect counterpart to Swimming. I just finished That's On Me and already teared up a couple times throughout the album. But his music spoke to me and many others. I miss the guy everyday, insane to miss someone you didn't know personally. He must have been really close to finishing this before he passed. I can't believe how complete of an album this is.
