Jun 7, 2022man really heard Faces, Watching movies, Swimming and said this is white mediocrity
Jun 7, 2022Jack Harlow is garbage there is no one on KTT who calls him anything beyond a “good” rapper
Jun 7, 2022·1 replyi do recall those who cares about swimming astroworld dropping posts so i do feel like a lot of the love is faked and out of some kind of guilt now. especially with the pushback astro gets sometimes

and op is making some valid points maybe not worded as succinctly as possible due to it being a touchy subject. i don’t really have any personal stakes in this cos i don’t really listen to his stuff anymore but i don’t think op went out of pocket or anything
Jun 7, 2022SWIMMING made me tear up so idk what you're talking about
Jun 7, 2022I still haven’t accepted that he’s gone. RIP Mac
Jun 7, 2022I think you have have a point, but I also feel like the majority of heavy Mac Miller stans are younger and didn’t even hear his earlier music till he was already beloved to them.

Man could have just said he doesn't like the music which is ok but no he have to go full on hater and revisionist
Jun 7, 2022RIP to the illest
Jun 7, 2022damn near everything mac made is classic
blue slide park? classic
faces? classic
macadelic? classic
best day ever? classic
KIDS? classicOP just mad he missed the waaave
Jun 7, 2022·5 repliesRip Mac but I think he was mostly loved because of his personality and place in rap. Really kind and supportive guy making slightly above average music made him very palatable especially bc no one has big as him (at the time) was rapping over fly lo type stuff & having collabs range from Earl to Juicy J.
He definitely had gems but I think he mostly earned his spot by being a cool guy rather than a musical genius

it’s not really wrong it’s just a subjective opinion. it wasn’t like op just straight up called him mediocrity without backing up why he thinks so. also he’s getting proven right about not being able to not d***suck him cos people are being way too touchy about it

its not being touchy, idc if he doesn't like the music as I said previously, but saying man is mediocre is something else

not really something else i mean he cool but i’d agree more with that than the d***sucking from niggas saying he one of the best artists last decade

Excellent way of putting it
Jun 7, 2022·2 repliesmac's early music definitely wasn't dog s***, people only say this because of blue slide park. KIDS, BDE, and I Love Life aren't "amazing" but they're not bad, and they're within the range of talent and skill as most skilled upcomers before they hit their stride. Plus they have classics on them too, i.e. Nikes on my feet, Kool Aid & Frozen Pizza, and Poppy off KIDS.
I get not liking Mac's music especially as later in his career he kinda veered off from hip hop entirely, but it's weird to act like he's somehow a mediocre artist in the industry. Like what is the comparison supposed to be for him to be mediocre? He's mediocre compared to which contemporary?
I agree though that yes, to a degree his later music is more meaningful because of the context of the beginning of his career. That's a redundant thing to point out though because that's the case with every single artist ever. Like would MBDTF be as meaningful if Kanye's entire career and public antics didn't exist leading up to it contextually? Would 4:44 be as meaningful if Jay-Z didn't have the experiences he's talking about on the album in the public eye? Artistry is largely tied to the context of the art when it's based on experience so like yeah no s*** some dude who was a happy frat kid excited about hip hop and music turning into a depressed jaded dude experimenting stylistically with music is reflected contextually in how people feel about the music in parallel to that

would agree with this if his career ended at good AM but Swimming,Circles and Divine Feminine are way above "above average" imo,and even then his music ranged from good to great

Who ever called him a musical genius? You guys throw these outrageous claims out there that nobody claimed.
