Mac Miller has accomplished every goal he ever set for himself. At least that s what the magazines say about the Pittsburgh kid, and they re right enough. With his first album he became a grassroots rap megastar. With his second he bared his weird soul and was praised for it. His 11 mixtapes boast a couple bucket lists worth of collaborators, from Bun B and Kendrick Lamar to Rick Ross and Juicy J. And in the same year that he toured the U.S. backed by a psychedelic soul band, he rapped all over Europe with Lil Wayne and 2 Chainz. He did indie. He s doing major. He even bought himself a ridiculous house in the Los Angeles hills and made a TV show about it. Hell, he made a jazz record.
But it s only now that Mac is stepping into the light. If the work he released surrounding 2013 s acclaimed Watching Movies With the Sound Off seems dark, that s because he s been exorcising demons – literally if you consider the tape devoted to his horrorcore alter-ego, Delusional Thomas. As Mac s profile rose, his outlook sunk. While the picture he painted of himself through 2014 s bleak-banging Faces tape is real as can be, it caught him in a surreal state: questioning everything, depressed. In 2015, at 23, we meet Mac all over again. The Mac who s got some answers, who sold the mansion, climbed out of the rabbit hole, and went back home to make his most confident and clear-headed album yet.
2015 s GO:OD AM speaks to this moment in Mac s life. A well-curated set of guests (ranging from Miguel, Little Dragon, Chief Keef, frequent collaborator Ab-Soul and a Lil B at his most sage) who embolden the message. Echoes of past forays into piano music and crate-digger beats. Fresh collisions of astral soundscapes and trap drums. You ll find a lot of humor and a lot of swagger. Heart and insight, too. Most of all, you ll find Mac Miller standing on his mountain of accomplishments – those we witnessed and those we didn t – rapping his ass off (as evidenced on lead track 100 Grandkids ) with a crooked grin and enough wisdom to know that the only way is up.
