Mac Miller: GOOD AM Vinyl 2LP

Mac Miller’s third studio album & first for a major label, GO:OD AM came out in 2015. In the Tyler, the Creator-produced opener “Doors,” the late Pittsburgh native raps “aint’ sayin’ that I’m sober, I’m just in a better place,” and this upward attitude is apparent throughout the album. This marks a turning point for Miller, as his previous works focused on depression, addiction, & more and the production, although remaining somewhat melancholic, sheds the dark, overarching cloud of previous projects. Check out “100 Grandkids,” “Brand Name,” and “Clubhouse.” “Weekend,” featuring Miguel, is the perfect example of the cautiously optimistic tone of GO:OD AM.
