Just some tidbits: Complicated, Blue World, I Can See and Everybody were individual songs from outside of Mac Miller's Circles project that the family gave to Jon Brion. Mac intended to have a third album follow up Circles which was a more pure hip-hop album.



Cool interview with more into the production of the album and how it came to be:

Speculative tidbits: I read somewhere Circles had intended to be released 90 days after Swimming however I'm not finding the quote so I won't include it with the facts above. Before Swimming's release Mac came with two singles not included on either released album, Buttons and Programs. Whether they're only to promote or meant to be on that third album, who knows.

Blue World and Woods are soooo good

hi roawn

the circumstances don’t make me like him any more and i wish they did

Complicated is such a good song

Album Rating: 5.0

Pretty sure I'm gonna end up liking this but need to spin it a few more times. I love the production here.

@Zeiu that was a great interview, albeit kinda brutal. especially hurts finding out he'd planned a trilogy and laid out plans for a few years ahead. goddamnit



also those songs weren't outside the Circles project, if I'm understanding right, just songs Mac was working Brion hadn't heard yet. everything here was recorded for Circles afaik



Brion seems to be saying there's Ariana vocals on I Can See, which is a spicy tidbit



"hi roawn"



hey :3

As someone who never enjoyed Mac's work in the past, would this still be worth listening to?
