    Anybody calling him a “junkie” or blaming him for his addiction/death have gained absolutely nothing of substance from listening to this album (and even Swimming). Mac does a beautiful job of illustrating his mental state and crafted an extremely relatable and introspective album. If you can’t imagine his thoughts and pain, you’re just not listening. I’m so proud of you, Mac. Thank you and Rest In Peace.

      @@commonlogic3646 Probably a multitude of stuff, but getting into the music buisness at a young age like he did and just being a dumb kid ( I love him but obviously when you are young and have money you make bad decisions) when he was making a ton of money. He probably had issues with fake friends and family. He also hated tabloids trashing him, he had a hard time he admitted knowing what was true about himself because people kept saying certain things so much even he started to doubt himself. Plus and in no way is this blaming her but the Ariana stuff probablt didnt help. Not to mention he may just have been depressed with all that on top. His brain just mightve not worked correctly, but nonetheless, ive notice the most damaged and broken people are artists. Just happens i guess.

  • @straight-uppodcast3834
    @straight-uppodcast3834 Před 2 lety +247

    The hardest or perhaps best part of Mac Miller’s discography is that we literally watch him grow up as he goes from this innocent kid that just loves his mom and wants to get rich and famous, eventually get rich and famous but isn’t really happy because drugs have taken over his life and he’s trying to do better for himself but things keep pulling him back in. Eventually his life comes full circle with him losing his fight, and it’s so sad because I know how hard he tried to put himself on the right track. When you listen to Mac Miller, you can tell he’s changed not only musically but as a person from K.I.D.S to Circles, and if you listen to his whole discography it’s apparent why.

      In the Vulture article Brion mentions that he was called by one of the few genuinely good human beings in the music industry and that's who connected Mac. He was an exec at Warner. I'm guessing outside of his family caring, his label wanted this to be good because they cared about him too. It's heartwarming to know people loved him but fuck me it makes it hurt more that he's gone.

    I can't disconnect this album from his death. Every part of it feels like a farewell from Mac. I got the chance to meet both Mac Miller and Tyler the Creator at Dirty O's in Pittsburgh (if you are from Pittsburgh you'll know where that is). I didn't know him but the team I was with was freaking out. He talked to us and me for a while and even said: "You're the calmest one here so I bet you're the leader."
    He shook my hand and was very nice. Funnily enough, I was the captain of the team at that time. I wish I was a fan of him at that time. I wish I could meet him again. There's no point to this story, Mac was just really important to the City of Pittsburgh and a real talent. I'm glad he got a good send-off. RIP Mac

    It kind of sucks that nobody is talking about the fact that the album is a circle in it self.
    The album ends on a note that is not normally a note to end on but to lead to and end but the first note of the first song is a note that is normally used to end you are meant to listen to circles as it shows you a circle with music fully completing the deeper story through out the whole album. With themes of everything around mac feeling like a loop just restarting over and over like a circle. Truly one of the best albums in my generation just wish we got to see more from him

    • @smore1g
      @smore1g Před 2 lety +4

      The last note of the Once a day leaves you in suspense and almost sounds like there should be something more, then it loops around to Circles and the first note is one that "resolves" the tension in terms of music theory. It also is a metaphor for his life being cut short before he could defeat his demons and not therefore not being "resolved". The end of the album could honestly be a metaphor for a thousand other things too.

    As someone that has listened to Mac Miller since High school and being the same age as this incredibly gifted soul, I find myself agreeing with a lot of your critiques, comments, and break downs, with the one major exception coming at Surf. Maybe its just personal preference but I think Surf is one of my favorite on the album. The juxtaposition of a love poem-esque approach and then the loneliness segment vibes to me gives it more than a 1 dimensional feel. The slow progression to the song makes the length feel very fitting and appropriate, with the last 1-2 minutes providing a much appreciative wind down to either breathe, take it all in, just purely vibe, or just finish collecting ones thoughts.
    The line : "Yeah, well, sometimes I get lonely, not when I'm alone but it's more when I'm standin' in crowds that I'm feelin' the most on my own" --- hits like a damn freight train.That one passage in itself makes me take a step back and appreciate it more. To each their own though.

    What more can you say about this album. It’s a beautiful piece of work from a very special individual, that is more special because Mac is no longer with us, yet through the magic of music, it feels like he still is. As a fan of course I would like to hear more music from Mac, but if this is the last album we ever get from him, I am beyond happy. Woods is my favorite song. I can go on forever about how much Mac is one of the persons that has inspired me to pursue music and has given me so many great memories. Objects in the mirror, will forever be my favorite song of his. If there is any album that deserves the yellow flannel, it’s this one. I hope wherever Mac is, he is happy and at peace, and proud at what he managed to accomplish while he was here.

    macs music always seemed to correlate with my life. he was around making those giddy tracks from bde when i was in high school. and his music slowly changed into something different as i too was slowly changing and to have lyrics that progressed with my own life, up until this point, has truly been a blessing. i can always go back and listen to his music and know exactly where i was in life at the time those tracks had a profound influence on me. rip mac. no other artist’s passing will hurt as much as this.

    I think this is my favorite album as a whole from Mac. As an artist, I've experienced the opposite effect of most, I hated his early projects but as he grew and his style changed and progressed, I started to like his work and him more and more. Sad to see that he won't continue to progress as I've grown to love his newer, darker, jazzier albums.
