I used to walk late at night and listen to this while getting off of heroin. Easily one of the most serene moments I had during that kick. I’ve been off it since. I wish I could let him know how much this helped me.
Imagine if that black rapper jit from Pittsburgh Philly rapped on this joint what was his name again I can’t remember?? He was man of the year in the 21st century one decade lol.
I opened for Mac Miller back in 2010 and he hasn’t taken off yet. He talked and was one of the most upbeat creative minds I’ve ever met and gave me tickets three years later when he’s famous. As I’m typing this now it’s still hard to believe he’s gone but his vibrations will always be with me thanks to music. Thank you for uploading this
I am also a fellow 2010 Mac opener! In indianapolis. One of the coolest most down to earth dudes. He wasn't blown up yet back then, but it was so obvious he had it in the bag. I remember watching him perform just thinking "wow, he better strap the fuck in cuz hes about to be on a rocket ride. what a star"
4 real I cannot believe how resonating lyrics beats jazzy classic flavor!!! I love love love this soul I pray to have the honor meeting mac. On the other side! I'm 54 this kid was saving my kid from the first rap I'm proud my boy has taste
Man, every time I feel down, every time depression kicks in, ever time I miss my old self, I come back and spend some time with Mac, I feel like if he was talking to me, we all miss you Malcolm, rest in beats and power. Big love
I literally just now saw this comment today and I couldn’t compare anymore on how much I understand this comment cause it lets me know I’m not alone and the only one feeling like this…I hope your okay.
Im stunned and shocked & not sure how to really process the news. Stay safe, his legacy shall live on with us and the incredible music he made during his time here on earth.
Regardless of if anything ever does get released past his passing that's not going to affect his legacy. He will live on way longer than "a few more years" trust me.
Just a quick one everyone a company called "Repost Network" claimed the video and is running ads on it because an artist I guess they represent sampled the song or the same one that Mac used only their artist did it last year. I guess they think they own it? Madness if you ask me. Ive filed a dispute as i want to keep ads off this as neither I nor Repost Network own any of this content as far as im aware. Not only that but it was a free mixtape/beattape. I want everyone to enjoy it all without it being interrupted with bloody ads as intended by the original creator. - Louie
Nothing to debate about Mac Miller. I love the style he had, his creativity, genius, outlook, taste in music, straightforwardness, and all around persona. He was/is an amazing individual. I hope he found what he was looking for, as I continue to search for the answers myself. We'll cross paths in our next life, homie. Rest easy.
Yes! When we reach a level our body no longer needs? Suppose a higher vibe takes any of us to a oneness WE already know. What if my nephew is hanging w him? I am . My son feels like he lost his brother when remembering Mac. I cry because he's a young prince. RIP beautiful fun artists
11:30 am and I’ve been working nights mindlessly 10-6 for the past two weeks came home, drank, smoked some trees and listened to Mac I’m now on this album since starting when I got home and I’ve prob cried like three times but I needed that. Thank you Mac for all your music and thank all you Mac fans for all your comments we always show love in the comments on macs song never hate or negative shit. Peace and love to all
MacMiller, You made a big part of my youth. While the most beautiful moments of my life i heared your songs. I was able to join another universe without thinking about anything while hearing you on RUclips. A big thank you from Berlin ❤
Its weird because Mac was one of those few artists that I've always wanted to meet and talk with them a while. Its weirder because out of all those artist that I want to meet, Mac seemed like the most probable of it happening. Don't know exactly why tho. I hope he knew how much of an impact he had on the world.
Alejandro Serrano Damn I always felt the same way. I find myself going back through his collection of music trying to figure out a way to communicate with the guy. Of course, aside from psychedelics, that won’t happen.
Bro same it felt like i knew him mad wierd i don't even fuck with celebrities but he just seemed like the realest dude would of loved to just meet him.
I went to one of macs concerts during the Devine Feminine tour and I had a dream a couple weeks after that I went to one of my family reunions and he was just hanging out at this activities place and there were so many people there, I seen him across the crowd and he was looking through at me and when we made eye contact he smiled then made his way across this huge room and when he got to me shook my hand and hugged me patted me on the back and said hey man thanks for coming to that one concert I was happy to see you two sitting back and enjoying the music. Continued to ask my what was going on with my life and I ended up hanging out with him and my girlfriend and daughter all day he was so genuinely a good guy and easy to get along with. It was crazy how real the dream and his personality was. I’m so sad that there will be no more albums from my favorite artist. But Swimming was perfect for him to leave off on. It will forever be timeless just like the rest of his songs. He was a great man. I’ve seen you in this life and I’ll see you the next. His spirit will watch over everyone who listens to his music. .MuchLove.
Alejandro Serrano Mac feels very approachable and grounded and like a chill guy and is very real and because he mentioned all his problems and stuff in his music and stuff like that which could make him more relatable to some ppl and was never a dick to his fans makes it seem like he likely to talk to fans and chill with them in the right mood I reckon
Ive listened to all of Mac's albums including Delusional Thomas etc, but this my first time hearing this album, don't need anything other than the first song. Getting me through some really dark thoughts, can't get over how talented he was 😢
I remember the night this came out like it was yesterday. Listened to the first half and loved it but hadn’t really soaked it in yet because it was background music while I got ready for a party at my friends house. Went out and had a night to remember. I woke up and stumbled outside at 6:11am and saw it had a few thousand views, my battery was low. I put this tape on and the first song…. It felt like hours. The chirping of the birds in the song while the birds around me chirped. The morning breeze on my skin, the warmth of the sun hitting me, the blue sky and the mountains towering tall like a group of wise men. The sand of the Mojave desert under my feet, the calm quietness of the early morning. The calm I felt, “Yes it is romantic. It had been a golden afternoon. And I remember having the familiar conviction that life was beginning over again” the sun slowly climbing in the sky. The Joshua trees in the distance. The empty desert standing still. There is no word to describe that morning. Nirvana is close maybe. That moment lasted forever. His music has inspired me, helped me and kept me going. Take care of yourself. I hope you find moments to breathe and see all the beauty around you. It’s out there, and it’s within you as well. Everything you need you already have. You’re doing great. Take care❤️
this is essentially a 30 minute long piece of original music which morphs into a different shape every 3 minutes. that's a hell of an effort to make all of that from scratch just for the purpose of a mix. which i presume was the case...sounds ad-libbed. beautiful sounds in here, the engineering, as always from mac, is awesome. this approach is i guess why swimming so was damn seemless end to end.
Swimming was such an amazing album. Its so bitter sweet though, because in the evolution of Mac's music it was a step forward and away from the dark and depressing era he had been in, the self love and attempts to regain control of his life you could hear it in the songs on Swimming. Was such a bitter sweet final project knowing the direction that he was heading in recovery or at least some sort of positivity and self care. RIP to legit one of the greatest of all time.
I mean I know he’s out in the astral plane Somewhere out there.. or back in a brain The man was a master of magical ways, that cannot be dampened or packaged away The fact we relate in such tangible ways is the proof that he knew how to detach from his brain So to Mac we all thank & congratulate for expanding the passion of fans with good taste
Hey. You got here. All that matters. He was amazing. Since the fake IG account discovered with less than 100 followers recently (he portrayed some character I believe he'd created.) I have a feeling and very much hope more of Mac will show itself. He had too much to offer.
This has aged so well and will continue to do so... All these Raising Arizona clips are so flippin' timeless. The end with Mac's voice and story are enough to make a dude tear up...
Love Mac, but wish every comment wasn't about how much you miss him. Let's talk about stuff we like from his music. We all miss him, let's celebrate him by discussing his art.
Hey everyone, been enjoying the comments being left on this video and the pure love for the music ive been seeing. Really helps during rough times 💕. Ive been debating uploading more Mac content and turning it into a bit of a chill archive of sorts. Only reason I haven't done so is because of copyright strikes and also the nature of uploading unreleased material while respecting Mac and the work he did. I know he would want us to have music, but its tricky doing it respectfully. I have demo versions that might be okay to upload of other music he had released for example. If your more knowledgeable about what I should avoid uploading (due to copy claims etc.) please let me know because uploading on this site can be a nightmare these days. Would appreciate the help greatly! Stay safe, - Lou
@@Jay782100 I have like three docs willed with unreleased stuff that I got off his reddit, so I can vouch for this comment. Had 7 of the songs that came out in circles months before they were officially released
Someone please explain to me what it is you guys are talking about? First off why does this dude have Mac Miller in the name of this beat and why is that even okay? If it's not Mac then don't put his name on it. Also what do you mean about having a Google doc filled with "blank" How could you have songs before they are released? These are genuine questions I just wanna learn more. You guys have peaked my interest.
@@rchavez5184 Its mac millers tape under his production alias that he released in 2013. The title reflects this so newcomers can come check out his alternative material without second guessing thus hopefully bringing more attention to his work as a whole.
@@PRO21SHOT9 or did it? Kind of poetic, im sure mac put that in for the exact reason that he would be dead one day while people were still listening to his music.
this album was right here when i needed it. i had known of mac for the longest time before and after.... but knew theyre was a side of him that i come to find, when i needed it the most.
Such a beautiful soul, we should not be sad at the fact that he's gone but be grateful for what he has given us. He's up there smiling looking down on us.
Me too, and the weird thing is that I feel like Mac's death was different from all previous rapper's deaths. I feel like we are all going through the same shit right now and it fucking sucks. But somehow I feel very grateful and fulfilled because listening to his music makes me feel better and gives me the feeling that he's done what he loved to do for his whole life.
With all this crazy shit going on in the world right now, this album really hits different. Rest easy Mac. Wish you were here but at least u don’t have to deal with this fucked up world any more.
+Joshua Reeves No, His next album will be the best he's ever done. I believe it because his first projects were good but bad lyrics then WMWTSO got better in lyrics and instrumental then Faces had very good lyrics but poor beats and Good A:M seemed to me that he's working on both And I believe he will perfection it in his next album.
I like all of Macs production n producers starting with WMWTSO, exluding a couple tracks from Macadelic. Also Nikes on my feet was the cleanest beat I had heard at that point in time. Instant Classic
You're definitely one of the realer Mac fans if you're here. This project and volume 2 have to make me the saddest now that he's gone. I'm glad that he got to be on this Earth and do what he did but I think we all know that he still had so much potential to live up to.
Your songs made my life change, your songs helped me, I used to go eat dinner then found one of your songs, then listened to more, and changed my life, thank you Mac Miller, I wish you we're here to hear this, We all love you Mac, you are my favorite. Thank you for being in my life.
Mac bro. You can just tell that you are ahead of us. We couldn’t keep up with you on earth. We were all on the first pages of life. While you made it big at 18, there’s no way to fathom how much experience and wisdom you gained. If we understood you better, maybe we could have gave you the credit you much deserved since the very beginning. You understood that we couldn’t fathom the feeling. You understood you were seeing things faster than we could perceive. You understood the human identity; that we can go to the lowest of lows to the highest of highs. You spoke to the human being, not a human race. Your consciousness made it full circle and that’s all that matters in this life. You made it Mac and I almost feel as if you are a messenger from God because even though everyone around you was doubting you and even your own family was judging where you might be in the afterlife because of the music you wrote, you created your own way. And that way has paved way for many of us to get out of the holes we create and to love and continue to do so even when the world has turned a side eye. May your legacy be REMembered forever.
I remember growing up in the desert of Southern California about 2 hours outside of La when this came out. I remember waking up after some of the craziest parties I ever been to in my life and just putting this on and looking out at the mountains and pondering life. Or in tough times I would put this on and just disconnect from everything. This man saved my life and I wish I could thank him for that. I love you Mac❤️ sending love to all you Macheads out there too. This album gives me chills listening to it, so much nostalgia❤️
It wouldn’t surprise me if this what got Mac signed. This and his experimental Delusional Thomas stuff show he could turn his hand to whatever he needed to. I think the key point was, it was obvious he had a real direction and a real passion for one particular genre which would permit him to release a classic album (not just hip hop album) like Swimming. And the great thing about Mac - all the most popular m relevant artists in hip hop, were his friends. He couldn’t fail. But that was because he was the real thing - he was a small brilliant corner of hip hop.
God, too live in this song is a damn blessing. Thank Mac & I do remember you questioning whether you are missed R.I.P. to one of the greatest artist of my generation #MostDope 🎉
@@mauiwowie2626 Could mean anything, I like to think it was Malcolm hinting at his own underlying disillusionment that came about as a result of his overwhelming success. i.e. the seeds of his addiction and eventual downfall. You can start to get a hint of his shift in attitude if you listen to macadelic/WMWTSO, his first real dark and introspective projects. Really diverged from all the happy-go-lucky frat rap he had made up to that point. This is where Malcolm realized that even your Best day ever cant go on indefinitely, life takes its toll no matter what. Cant stay at the top forever. Top becomes the norm and creates a lot more potential for downside/addiction. In the same way successful child stars sometimes go on to be dysfunctional adults, human beings can't get it all at once without often sustaining heavy blows to their own character/life perspectives/ambitions. The spoiled rich kid trope is another example. Its like beating a videogame completely and having achieved total mastery you run out of challenge and you get bored. Same thing happened to Malcolm because he blew up so young and decided to fill the void with drugs and well here we are. Still an amazing human being and one of the best artists of our generation imo. RIP.

@@chrisshannon4814 Wow man, incredibly well said. I grew up listening to Mac and feel a deep connection to his music because of that, and I couldn't have said it better myself. Mac's shift from party rap to introspective/deep bars is still one of the most severe and impressive shifts that I've ever seen in music. I'm definitely biased because Mac has always been and still is one of my favorite artists, but too many people didn't realize the raw musical talent of him early on; you can hear the passion in his music throughout his career, and this era throughout Faces/WMWTSO only served to solidify his position in the underground rap community. Just felt compelled to respond because from your comment it seems like you're more passionate than me, which is rare 😅 Anyways, in short I completely agree with your analysis and greatly enjoyed reading your response. Thanks for the reminiscence and solid articulation, you a real one.
I just finished the Great Gatsby about a week ago, and was listening to this for the first time since it came out, and was like, ''wait a minute, this sound familiar,'' it was cool noticing them lol
I feel so bad for him I know he’s in a better place man but I wish he was alive today to help us. We put so much pressure on him for dealing with the breakup, drug addictions, and the whole Astro World vs Swimming beef smh. I know some of us weren’t involved with his misfortunes by criticizing him and his work but let’s appreciate the artists we still have before they pass and stop putting so much pressure on them.
Eduardo Tenorio are you fucking slow? Lo-fi has been around where do you think he got the inspiration? Just out of his own head? Nah he was rocking to this shit before you knew about it for sure, and then making it on his own, then you found out about it and saw it was a thing. Your bad.... not his

Hey. You got here. All that matters. He was amazing. Since the fake IG account discovered with less than 100 followers recently (he portrayed some character I believe he'd created.) I have a feeling and very much hope more of Mac will show itself. He had too much to offer.
RIP TO THE LEGEND. "Ima see you, in this life or the next."
BE SAFE, HOMIE!
rip... thank you for everything mac
This has aged so well and will continue to do so... All these Raising Arizona clips are so flippin' timeless. The end with Mac's voice and story are enough to make a dude tear up...
Not a single lie was told
its truly amazing what music can do to you
I know right can be mad!
there's something about malcolm. we miss u. thank u mac.
he really didnt know how important he was to all of us...
VinnyTooGodly couldn’t be more right. Rest in Power Mac
Love Mac, but wish every comment wasn't about how much you miss him. Let's talk about stuff we like from his music. We all miss him, let's celebrate him by discussing his art.
mac miller is my angel
11:22
Ahhh jeez. Now he really is all of our angel in a sense. Guarding our sanity with his music
Hey everyone, been enjoying the comments being left on this video and the pure love for the music ive been seeing. Really helps during rough times 💕.
Ive been debating uploading more Mac content and turning it into a bit of a chill archive of sorts. Only reason I haven't done so is because of copyright strikes and also the nature of uploading unreleased material while respecting Mac and the work he did. I know he would want us to have music, but its tricky doing it respectfully. I have demo versions that might be okay to upload of other music he had released for example.
If your more knowledgeable about what I should avoid uploading (due to copy claims etc.) please let me know because uploading on this site can be a nightmare these days. Would appreciate the help greatly!
Stay safe,
- Lou
go to the r/macmiller reddit thread. There is a google doc full of Mac leaks out there somewhere that the community regularly contributes to.
@@Jay782100 I have like three docs willed with unreleased stuff that I got off his reddit, so I can vouch for this comment. Had 7 of the songs that came out in circles months before they were officially released
Someone please explain to me what it is you guys are talking about?
First off why does this dude have Mac Miller in the name of this beat and why is that even okay? If it's not Mac then don't put his name on it.
Also what do you mean about having a Google doc filled with "blank"
How could you have songs before they are released?
These are genuine questions I just wanna learn more. You guys have peaked my interest.
@@rchavez5184 Its mac millers tape under his production alias that he released in 2013. The title reflects this so newcomers can come check out his alternative material without second guessing thus hopefully bringing more attention to his work as a whole.
Yo keep it coming Louie!!! Def gonna subscribe to you and you are doing gods work my friend, uploading Macs content is how we keep his spirit alive!
I can't believe he's gone. Your music help me make it back from some dark trips and i thank you. RiP
Colors and shapes on faces saved me from a potential panic attack on Acid
@@Chanel0-p5q what made you panic?
Don’t do drugs then. Simple.
Hope everyone is okay, keeping safe etc. Shoutout to the mac miller Reddit for posting this on there also :)
beat makin, weed breakin... down
complete faded, I'm cremated... now
damn. predicting the future
This didnt age well
@@PRO21SHOT9 or did it? Kind of poetic, im sure mac put that in for the exact reason that he would be dead one day while people were still listening to his music.
@@michaelmorgan6674 that goes for so much of his work. It’s all prophetic because he was completely self aware of his condition. It’s eerily beautiful
Read this just as it came across the air
Turned the tv to animal planet, put it on mute and listened to Mac for hours tonight. Ended it with this....all I can say is thanks Mac.
Watching movies with the sound off
I'm sayin, this shit been here for awhile and in just now stumbling on it
I literally felt as if I was being born. Thats insane.
;)
Who knows if you had air pods in when you slid out before you slid back in bruh slime out
This is real artistry
macs productions skills are really amazing, im shocked he didn't have any of his beats on good am
This may sound weird but it's hard to write to your own beats. Some rappers can do it but for most who do both, it's hard....
+nolanliln true but I'm sure he has a variety of beats that haven't been released yet. Hopefully he comes out with a mixtape soon.
I watched an interview of him and he said he had 600 unreleased songs. All for himself or when it's the right time to release.
+iBeJerkiin I guess it's time to release it
@@Delena00 please
this album was right here when i needed it. i had known of mac for the longest time before and after.... but knew theyre was a side of him that i come to find, when i needed it the most.
3 years later somehow i ended up at this place again tripping balls again
Such a beautiful soul, we should not be sad at the fact that he's gone but be grateful for what he has given us. He's up there smiling looking down on us.
He’s down there frowning up at us
Mac has saved so many lives.. we love you Mac, you’ll live in our hearts and in the music, forever
this shit took me to a good place. nostalgic
Peace and love to everyone who's emotions brought them here!
I miss him so much.
He'll always be with us through his music
Me too, and the weird thing is that I feel like Mac's death was different from all previous rapper's deaths. I feel like we are all going through the same shit right now and it fucking sucks. But somehow I feel very grateful and fulfilled because listening to his music makes me feel better and gives me the feeling that he's done what he loved to do for his whole life.
chocolatelover Javian
Ben
Me too
Same dude.
Mac Miller will live on forever. Thank you for blessing this earth.
This album speaks to me more than the people i´ve meet
Strongly agree
agreed
I love you Mac so much . You made a difference your making a difference, may you energy be with all your loved ones. We love you & miss you sm
Okay but does anyone else feel like this is the soundtrack to what their brain sounds like?
Asking for a friend....
Only on meth
With all this crazy shit going on in the world right now, this album really hits different. Rest easy Mac. Wish you were here but at least u don’t have to deal with this fucked up world any more.
I think lockdown wouldn't have been a problem for him haha!
@@iHeavnx music n drugs baby
Thankful for you, and always thinking about you. Thank you for this
Troubling moments come, so i listen to this and get high. And i understand everything will be fine someday. Rest In Peace Mac We Love You 🙏🙏🙏
Amen
Real artistry, had to come back to this one. Let beautiful souls rest beautifuly
my anxiety was killing me. thank u mac 2:06
So many people sleep on him. His new album will go platinum, and he'll blow up again.
+Joshua Reeves No, His next album will be the best he's ever done.
I believe it because his first projects were good but bad lyrics then WMWTSO got better in lyrics and instrumental then Faces had very good lyrics but poor beats and Good A:M seemed to me that he's working on both And I believe he will perfection it in his next album.
+King Carlos l Dope Boyz Squad so far your prediction is doin pretty good, "we" is one of macs best works
Faces had poor beats? You trippin!
He will always be a legend rip
I like all of Macs production n producers starting with WMWTSO, exluding a couple tracks from Macadelic. Also Nikes on my feet was the cleanest beat I had heard at that point in time. Instant Classic
You're definitely one of the realer Mac fans if you're here.
This project and volume 2 have to make me the saddest now that he's gone. I'm glad that he got to be on this Earth and do what he did but I think we all know that he still had so much potential to live up to.
Thank you Malcolm. I hope everyone gets to do what they want in life.
good for lucid thinking
the magnitude to which i miss the dead legends is my own personal hell
A piece of art, just cant seem to stop repeating it for years
Rip genius mac
Your songs made my life change, your songs helped me, I used to go eat dinner then found one of your songs, then listened to more, and changed my life, thank you Mac Miller, I wish you we're here to hear this, We all love you Mac, you are my favorite. Thank you for being in my life.
Mac bro. You can just tell that you are ahead of us. We couldn’t keep up with you on earth. We were all on the first pages of life. While you made it big at 18, there’s no way to fathom how much experience and wisdom you gained. If we understood you better, maybe we could have gave you the credit you much deserved since the very beginning. You understood that we couldn’t fathom the feeling. You understood you were seeing things faster than we could perceive. You understood the human identity; that we can go to the lowest of lows to the highest of highs. You spoke to the human being, not a human race. Your consciousness made it full circle and that’s all that matters in this life. You made it Mac and I almost feel as if you are a messenger from God because even though everyone around you was doubting you and even your own family was judging where you might be in the afterlife because of the music you wrote, you created your own way. And that way has paved way for many of us to get out of the holes we create and to love and continue to do so even when the world has turned a side eye. May your legacy be REMembered forever.
I finally understand the underlying complexities of this masterpiece
How amazing is it
I wish there was a volume 3
Its like when neo sees the matrix for the first time
Only real mac fans know about this
im so sad...
the acid never hit so clear right now
Unless they watch Larry King.
@@burntreflection4500 Best Reply!
Im larry fisherman and larry lovestain fan, not a mac miller fan
Everyone loves Mac. The Larry’s got slept on. Long lives the Larry’s and may they forever change the world.
he's already done pt2 of this! he said it's more trippy! but okay seriously, the first beat is some of the best shit I've ever heard..
+Perdomo231 EEEXXACTLY
The first beat sounds like a slowed down guitar instrumental from say it ain't so by weezer
Could you link part 2 please
@NapFloridian updated link ruclips.net/video/y-rMGaNyf0U/видео.html
@@laitheisenmann6094 i was thinking the same thing lmao
I remember growing up in the desert of Southern California about 2 hours outside of La when this came out. I remember waking up after some of the craziest parties I ever been to in my life and just putting this on and looking out at the mountains and pondering life. Or in tough times I would put this on and just disconnect from everything. This man saved my life and I wish I could thank him for that. I love you Mac❤️ sending love to all you Macheads out there too. This album gives me chills listening to it, so much nostalgia❤️
Avocado is still one of the hardest beats I've ever heard. Love you Larry Fish 💔
It wouldn’t surprise me if this what got Mac signed. This and his experimental Delusional Thomas stuff show he could turn his hand to whatever he needed to. I think the key point was, it was obvious he had a real direction and a real passion for one particular genre which would permit him to release a classic album (not just hip hop album) like Swimming. And the great thing about Mac - all the most popular m relevant artists in hip hop, were his friends. He couldn’t fail. But that was because he was the real thing - he was a small brilliant corner of hip hop.
Im on 3 hits of acid, this is great
Haha your a goof straight up Skinner
***** y?
JimLahey1234 couldn't be writing
+ilnumeroperfetto696 lol first thing I said
if you were on three tabs they were half dosed, because you wouldn't be able to type
This is perfect stoner music duuuuuudee
+Rob Gonz both really
+Rob Gonz why not both lol 😉👌
God, too live in this song is a damn blessing. Thank Mac & I do remember you questioning whether you are missed R.I.P. to one of the greatest artist of my generation #MostDope 🎉
He knew damn well everybody would miss the absolute fuck out of him
Outstanding!!
"it was what preyed on him- what foul dust floated in the wake of his dreams" RIP Malcolm
What does it mean ?
@@mauiwowie2626 Could mean anything, I like to think it was Malcolm hinting at his own underlying disillusionment that came about as a result of his overwhelming success. i.e. the seeds of his addiction and eventual downfall.
You can start to get a hint of his shift in attitude if you listen to macadelic/WMWTSO, his first real dark and introspective projects. Really diverged from all the happy-go-lucky frat rap he had made up to that point. This is where Malcolm realized that even your Best day ever cant go on indefinitely, life takes its toll no matter what. Cant stay at the top forever. Top becomes the norm and creates a lot more potential for downside/addiction.
In the same way successful child stars sometimes go on to be dysfunctional adults, human beings can't get it all at once without often sustaining heavy blows to their own character/life perspectives/ambitions. The spoiled rich kid trope is another example.
Its like beating a videogame completely and having achieved total mastery you run out of challenge and you get bored. Same thing happened to Malcolm because he blew up so young and decided to fill the void with drugs and well here we are.
Still an amazing human being and one of the best artists of our generation imo. RIP.

@@chrisshannon4814 Wow man, incredibly well said. I grew up listening to Mac and feel a deep connection to his music because of that, and I couldn't have said it better myself. Mac's shift from party rap to introspective/deep bars is still one of the most severe and impressive shifts that I've ever seen in music.
I'm definitely biased because Mac has always been and still is one of my favorite artists, but too many people didn't realize the raw musical talent of him early on; you can hear the passion in his music throughout his career, and this era throughout Faces/WMWTSO only served to solidify his position in the underground rap community.
Just felt compelled to respond because from your comment it seems like you're more passionate than me, which is rare 😅
Anyways, in short I completely agree with your analysis and greatly enjoyed reading your response. Thanks for the reminiscence and solid articulation, you a real one.
Mac was such a genius. God damn
I love Mac even more now, he fuckin used Raising Arizona in a mixtape wow. RIP an unbelievably gifted angel.
Here 6 years after you passed.. this still seems to be the only peace some days🤍
Love the Great Gatsby bits added into the songs..
I just finished the Great Gatsby about a week ago, and was listening to this for the first time since it came out, and was like, ''wait a minute, this sound familiar,'' it was cool noticing them lol
there's also a couple vocal samples from "Raising Arizona" towards the beginning :)
I feel so bad for him I know he’s in a better place man but I wish he was alive today to help us. We put so much pressure on him for dealing with the breakup, drug addictions, and the whole Astro World vs Swimming beef smh. I know some of us weren’t involved with his misfortunes by criticizing him and his work but let’s appreciate the artists we still have before they pass and stop putting so much pressure on them.
We all love you Mac.
listening to this shit for the first time just now has recharged me in a way that only shrooms has done before
i felt like mac was a real friend
I know youre not resting....and for this, i thank you. Ive got your six
Lo-fi type vibes before lo-fi scratched the surface as hard as it has now. RIP to a true musician, Mac Miller
Eduardo Tenorio are you fucking slow? Lo-fi has been around where do you think he got the inspiration? Just out of his own head? Nah he was rocking to this shit before you knew about it for sure, and then making it on his own, then you found out about it and saw it was a thing. Your bad.... not his
Y’all are both high if you think lofi was his inspiration..
yo everyone chill
lofi was around way before mac miller. You could look up anticon records and they all have stuff way older.
@@Jacob-Faria not saying that, lofi was inspired BY Mac Miller
I’m saddened that DatPiff shutdown as I always listened to this there. Nonetheless, happy for this gem
Am eight of some golden teachers has me feeling wonderful to this I feel like I heard max genuinely laughing with me at the same time lol
Stumbled on this right when I really needed it thanks for having this uploaded.
still can't process that Mac is gone... 💔 my musical soulmate .. rip Mac Miller ❤
I use to listen to this back when I was a kid, like 19 or 20. This is the stuff they don't know about ❤
The pain i feel from his loss is unreal. Love you Mac. Thumbs up bruh
Thank you,Larry Fisherman, you saved my life and awakened New Life within
It's sad to think about how much he had still to offer trough his music and now he's gone, I'm crying while listening to this, rest in power Mac
Damn new to mac miller music and im having a blast! And just found out about larry lovestein and now larry fisherman? Sheeshg
Brace yourself for delusional thomas 😎
When your tuned in you understand the beauty
