Mac Miller - GO:OD AM

At first I was a bit dismissive of this album. I didn’t really like Mac Miller’s delivery at first. But as I listened (and re-listened) his affectless drawl really grew on me. And his flow and songcraft is impeccable.

Contrary to the hip hop albums I’ve featured previously, this album really lives and dies on the talents and tastes of its MC.

Throughout 17 tracks, helmed by 17 producers, and with beats that draw from genres as diverse as soul, jazz, and ambient electronica, the record retains a remarkable consistency and cohesion. And it can only be because of a newly sober Mac’s renewed focus and determination.

Highlights: Rush Hour • 100 Grandkids • Clubhouse
