Before I go into a review, I have had roughly 4 full listens to Mac Miller’s new album in the past three days. This album marks an interesting point in Mac’s career, as he is clearly venturing out and trying new things. Something that struck me as odd about this album first was the timing of it. His last album, GO:OD AM was released just over a year ago in September of 2015 and received praise from both fans and industry heads since its release.
Mac Miller is something special within the rap genre, as I can honestly say that with every project you can hear the growth of his music. I think about myself as a sixteen year old kid hearing K.I.D.S. for the first time back in 2010, and Mac Miller being only a year older than I am, I immediately said, “this is the kid that is going to represent rappers born in the early 1990’s. For the most part I was right, Mac Miller has been one of the few rappers who take his craft very serious, yet still has fun with it.
