    Agree with everything in op, always felt like mac was talented, he has a lot of amazing songs in his discog, but never really had an album that was truly great to me. I loved circles tho, so much so as to put it #2 on my AOTY list. Maybe his death affected a bit how i felt about it, but ultimately i feel his death is important in the context of the album and elevates it sonically and thematically. It's a 9/10 to me.
    R.I.P mac ❤️

    Never would've expected Mac to drop songs like this.

    This is my favorite track on the album and a top 3 track of the year

    I'll admit, I've never been a huge fan of Mac. Always knew he was a very capable artist but I always felt like he wasn't able to really construct a cohesive album. It was either slightly unfocused (The Divine Feminine) or wasted potential but still great (Watching Movies With the Sound Off).

    With Circles, he really showed his true potential. When he's not rapping, he has the perfect voice for this somewhat lonely and helpless type of delivery that works so well for this album. You feel every single line he sings and you can tell he truly means it.

    Good News for example is brilliant, hands down the best song he's ever made.

    Thoughts?

    & RIP 🌹

    circles is a great album and i would've felt it even if he was here. i feel like this would've been the start of a thematic shift for him if he was still here.

    That's what makes this so sad, I really wanted to see what he was gonna do next.

    Apparently he planned to go back to a heavy focused rap album next.

    Hopefully some of that surfaces through Madlib

  • Would’ve listened to the album if I wore DC shoes, played COD, and drink Mountain Dew

    Rip to Mac though, hope he’ll find peace
