Good News is not his best written song but I appreciate this thread

Oh lol, I’ll look for them.

No probs :)

might give it a relisten when that deluxe hit apple music though

The only good thing that came from his untimely passing is that he's finally getting the praise he deserves.

R.I.P. Mac

Jon said it was mostly done. Think he said the song he had to work on to finish the most was hands. Mostly everything else was finished or nearly done needing finishing touches

Hands was a major highlight for me

Probably bottom 3 for me but I don't dislike any song on the project so that's not an insult

Same

Feel like circles was the album Mac always wanted to make. Glad the world got to hear it

the deluxe songs are beautiful

Hearing that he had a third album to release after Swimming & Circles strictly focused on rapping makes me hope this ain't the last we see of his posthumous releases. Circles is definitely some of, if not his best work. Hands, Hand Me Downs, Blue World, That's On Me, Once A Day & Good News are all incredible.

Impatiently waiting for my vinyl so I can hear them

they're absolutely worth a vinyl purchase and this is coming from someone who didn't care much for circles

I'm super excited!

Btw not disagreeing w/ Good News being a top notch song of Mac's but I think overall Self Care might be his best work

this is so bittersweet. he was on the verge of something next level

Not just speaking of rappers, musicians or even people. Mac's passing hit me really hard, knowing we'll never get to see him prosper & see how much the world appreciated his artistry develop Made me appreciate all the people around me a bit more.

same here, not just because I grew up listening to his music but because he seemed just like a good person overall. felt like we loss a childhood friend or something

That’s great also but there’s something about Good News, the lyrics are just too real and relatable.

Beautiful instrumental too.

As a fan of Mac I'm not interested in the direction he was heading in peak Mac was watching movies and macadelic imo

why not?

It has became one of my favorite albums oat

you missing out

I agree Good News is his best song, but as a whole album I don’t listen to it as much as Swimming, which I feel was more focused and finished and presented the themes of d*** addiction, depression and anxiety really well and hit harder in my opinion. Still, Circles is good and I’m glad we got it.
