Circles

Though I like rap, I never knew Mac Miller, besides an nice Tiny Desk concert. In retrospect I should have paid attention. Circles is a great hip hop album and his other albums are also worth listening to. Several songs are Mac singing and he is certainly not that great at it, but in a way this imperfection makes the songs intimate and personal. The music is laid back and jazzy/funky. A bit of an Anderson .Paak vibe.

Rating: 9/10 Best songs: Circles, Blue world, Good news, Everybody, Woods, That’s on me, Surf

Never listened to this guy. It's good: heavily haunted, of course, by the sad ending preceding its release. The older I get the more utterly void of romance I find this ugly and commonplace tale. Bonus point for featuring Wendy.
