8/10
Y'all know this is just my opinion, right?
Anthony you will never have a comment section this at ease ever again, this is the apex of seriousness and no memes.
A Crow Looked At Me had a similar vibe in the comments
Stand down soldiers. When the Poppy review drops, we’re going in.
Well it's only been 11 hours
Swag Miller
also blackstar's review
The yellow flannel for the final Mac album
I couldn’t have asked for anything better melon
So true
Milo Kaye based
praise the yellow flannel
Mac Miller left us a special project.
Fantano’s redemption arc
Mac Millers "Circles" was the musical equivalent of the ending to a fantastic book. No one is happy it ended, but we are all happy we got closure.
And swimming was honestly a great lead into it the sound of those two albums really hits home man
took the words right out my mouth
Honestly If anything it makes it more tragic and I can only imagine the music he would have made in the future
I haven't watched game of thrones but I'd imagine circles is the musical equivalent to the ending everyone wanted
and a great one on that
Probably one of the best posthumous albums we will ever get out of this generation
Wish Xs management could do a good job
@@zee8099 amen dude, but I just don't think there's any way X could have a more complete sounding posthumous album than someone like Mac just simply because he wasn't making music for as long
@@revthadon8868 yeah I think you’ve hit the nail on the head here and also Mac was surrounded by older artists who’ve been in the game longer so knew what he would’ve wanted
David Bowie and Mac on par
It helped it was pretty well completed. So god damn good
So glad this wasn’t a cash grab posthumous release like so many others
Apian Kwaad ...XXX
someone gonna say this on every single video?
agreed
I think it’s because this album was largely finished
The new X album is just barely finished music
Whatever Interscope does with Juice will probably be an embarassment compared to this.
Great review melon. This album was a perfect send off, I just wish Mac was here to see you break out the yellow flannel
Did not expect you to be here
Blarg :))))
I did not expect to see you here lmao
I think there’s more to come (hopefully)
hey blarg
We will never see Fantano's comment section this serious ever again, will we
Calvin Squire exactly
I don’t, while I do think the album is good, I think calling it “smack” was in poor taste.
The last time it was this serious was his Crow Looked at Me review
the bts reviews have genuine responses.
even then, this comment section is still kinda aids lol
Swimming: 3/10
Circles: 8/10
so Swimming in Circles: 11/10; I knew you'd come around, melonhead
lol
Good joke, but swimming was a 3 so actually Mac Miller 11/10 confirmed
Gestr are you kidding me? It was lot better then that
@@s.i2898 He's referencing Anthony's review of Swimming where he gave it a criminal score of 3/10.
Armaan Kalkat yeah i know, he knows nothing.
I imagine Fantano letting out a breathy sigh of warmth and closure as he picked out the yellow flannel for this one
SilverCatalyst LMAO facts tho
Wow
Wouldn't doubt if he feels all giddy inside while picking it out, I would too.
Dat pathos tho
Seriously though
You know its real when the Melon opens with his actual name.
Felt that one
I had to go back and check. Big respect from Melon
He seems to do with every artist who has an posthumously album. I remember him doing this for x album.
He did it for Brockhampton’s Ginger as well. Thanks for the detail melon :)
“Hey guys post-thony humoustano here”
"Haven't seen the sun in a while but heard the sky's still blue"
That bar was the hardest shit ever. Condensed the whole album to a single line. Posthumous masterpiece. Be safe Mac. Thanks for the yellow flannel Melon, very nice.
Bro the likes are at 444 idk if I should like or not

I’m glad instead of ruining this posthumous album, they really kept his style. It doesn’t feel like a cash grab, it feels like a continuation of his legacy
Felt like a good bye.
@@stonechief8161 I think it might go even further than a good bye. It almost seems like it was meant to be posthumous, it really feel like Mac giving us a last insight from the beyond, honestly far exceeded my expectations, really reminded me how much I missed his stuff.
The producer worked his ASS off on this album for almost 2 years, so that probably explains it. I'm so glad about that
Thank John Brion for that, Mac and John were growing and growing as friends and John really understood Mac and kept that idea for Circles completely intact.
It was the fondest farewell
“Anthony Fantano, Rest In Peace Mac Miller, forever”
This made me bawl like a baby
SamHydeDisciple ye fuck it got me
Thinking about the fact that he was only 26 makes me really depressed.
Dont do drugs
no it didn't
@Uncluded hey like go away or something
nobody asked
*sees yellow flannel
*sheds a tear 🥺
Ya did good kid, ya did good
What's up with the yellow flannel?
@@alexnumber24 yellow flannel means the rating is high and he really liked the album. If u see the yellow flannel u can assume he liked it except for some of his old reviews
@@elephantcubersins7285 oh thanks, didn't know about that :)
fuck this is exactly how i felt. you did good kid.
@@alexnumber24 Np :)
Anybody calling him a “junkie” or blaming him for his addiction/death have gained absolutely nothing of substance from listening to this album (and even Swimming). Mac does a beautiful job of illustrating his mental state and crafted an extremely relatable and introspective album. If you can’t imagine his thoughts and pain, you’re just not listening. I’m so proud of you, Mac. Thank you and Rest In Peace.
100%
Best comment of the decade, as well as the album
This is what I observed going through his discography. He went from an ambitious young rapper to an artist using music as his means of displaying his internal wars.
Can you explain to me why was he depressed?
@@commonlogic3646 Probably a multitude of stuff, but getting into the music buisness at a young age like he did and just being a dumb kid ( I love him but obviously when you are young and have money you make bad decisions) when he was making a ton of money. He probably had issues with fake friends and family. He also hated tabloids trashing him, he had a hard time he admitted knowing what was true about himself because people kept saying certain things so much even he started to doubt himself. Plus and in no way is this blaming her but the Ariana stuff probablt didnt help. Not to mention he may just have been depressed with all that on top. His brain just mightve not worked correctly, but nonetheless, ive notice the most damaged and broken people are artists. Just happens i guess.
“Anthony Fantano, Rest In Peace Mac Miller, Forever.” im crying yo
except he gave Swimming a 3
"Please don't cry"
HOW!?!?!
😭😭
yeah I’m crying rn
@@David-wy7cj get over it.
John Brion is one of the people everyone should be thanking, without him we wouldnt have gotten this album most likely
he's also a pretty underrated film composer
100%
Bill Keys - Punch Drunk Love ❤️
@@Joemama69420blazeit I wish he would have worked with PTA more but you can't blame him for going with Jonny Greenwood all the time.
Yo! Y'all niggas actually down for PTA! These are my people.
so at this moment, its the highest rated album of the decade
First yellow flannel album of the decade
Aleup according to some dumbass poser kids.
Ok
Random Dude Ok
ok
The hardest or perhaps best part of Mac Miller’s discography is that we literally watch him grow up as he goes from this innocent kid that just loves his mom and wants to get rich and famous, eventually get rich and famous but isn’t really happy because drugs have taken over his life and he’s trying to do better for himself but things keep pulling him back in. Eventually his life comes full circle with him losing his fight, and it’s so sad because I know how hard he tried to put himself on the right track. When you listen to Mac Miller, you can tell he’s changed not only musically but as a person from K.I.D.S to Circles, and if you listen to his whole discography it’s apparent why.
"got rich and famous but isn't really happy because drugs have taken over his life" you got that wrong. He was doing the drugs because he wasn't happy, not the other way around
Nicely put
If an album brings a grown ass man to uncontrollable tears then it's a 10/10
You know this is a very serious review when not even the comments are making jokes. RIP Mac
Yo forreal.
Weird to see an artists death not grossly exploited through void posthumous releases
Good job macs team/family
-- I think you mean “Good job Melon!”
Cleo & Empire could never
For real makes me soooo happy man...like im sooo grossed out how they did x even tho im not the biggest fan but the fact that Mac Miller's legacy is intact makes me happy
so sad that that’s weird
Good job Jon Brion
I’ll never understand why you rated swimming so poorly.
He's just stubbornly sticking to what he said before when trying to be edgy even though he knows he's wrong now
John G orrrr he just has different opinions and different tastes in music.
I know! Swimming to me was his best album... and I’ve listened to Mac since K.I.D.S.
@@johng9265 or he just didn't like it, that sounds more reasonable
@@kennethdavis6482 To be fair he changed his mind significantly on Faces, he gave it a 6 initially when he reviewed it initially but since then it made his top 200 albums of the decade list and he's stated he swore he gave it a 7 at least, it was his favorite Mac project prior to this one
Losing mac miller was like losing a good friend
and what’s crazy is that everyone knows exactly where they were when they heard he passed
Finally, a posthumous release that seems to have had love & care behind it. With all these unbelievably cynical and disrespectful releases by deceased artists the last year, it’s legitimately heartwarming to see one done right. Much respect to those who helped make this come together.
Lil Peeps did as well even if it's not your thing.
I'd say 2Pac's "Better Dayz" album stands up to his stuff when he was alive if we're looking for rap comparisons.
The Gang Starr one was really good so not all of em were bad
All great posthumous releases have something in common, family and close friends doing they're best to release something that the artist, someone they knew for so long, would be proud of!
Christopher Lowery I was se relieved that it was done right. This could’ve been a cash grab. It was truthfully the best made posthumous release I’ve heard maybe ever.
When Anthony is old and retired that shirt will be legendary.
Big country's poundcake it’s already legendary
I would love a museum of Melon related memorabilia, like the vinyl shelves, his flannel, his glasses, and his taxidermied body.
@@thirtyyearoldmulberryfield Ran by Cal of course.
It already is
You had me until his taxidermied body lmaooo
This is a 10/10 album for me. Its an album i enjoyed from start to finish, never felt a need to skip any tracks and it hit personally to me.
I didnt really listen to mac's music much prior to his death. But hearing about his death and then listening to Good News still made me cry. He seemed like a great man. May he rest easy.
Good news made everyone cry
I didn’t listen to Mac Miller that much before his death. But I remember the Apple Music notification for this album coming out, and ever since then it’s been a daily album for me.
@out ?
@out i mean, idk, this is just some random person on the internet so its kinda weird to make a super strong assumption like that. At the end of the day, its just music, let people have their opinion.
@out bro shut up
Jon's work in Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind is dream-blowing and forever will be one of my favorite soundtracks in film. 'Phone Call' just puts me to tears.
anoASMR well hello there
thank god someone finally mentions his work on this movie, the main theme is so amazing. You can also hear him using reversed audio in the main theme which he also does in right and some other songs on circles which i think is interesting
Holy shit THAT Jon Brion!!! I loved Eternal Sunshine's ost, thats why this album was so amazing
Fun Fact: Watching Movies with the Sound Off was inspired after Mac watched that movie
Even synecdoche, new york has such a beautiful soundtrack, really goes well with kaufman's filmmaking style
Now this is how to handle an artist's posthumous work. Take notes, Juice WRLD's label.
Juice WRLD's label hasn't done anything wrong. Yet.
he just means it’s like an almost perfect template for Juice’s label to follow so they don’t make a mess like how X’s label did
dam, i read that comment and was so lost why you mentioned juice. completely forgot about his passing, it just feels unreal
Sick "Coach McGuirk" pic, loved Home Movies as a kid.
treyh I was already so iffy about juices hook on godzilla.
Man, the yellow flannel, a score of 8, using Millers actual name, melon using HIS real name, all on the final album...
I'm not crying you're crying
And the non meme intro
The fact this didn’t get a Grammy nod makes me wanna cry harder than Melon in the Good News track review.
Yet Cardi B won a grammy over Macs swimming, and Nipsey Hussle Victory lap, and even Astoworld..and they wonder why no one takes those awards seriously anymore.
@@Sky_Blaze its all a rich mans game. we play our own game tho come join :)
I feel weird about this review as usual. I can not see how someone would like this album but not enjoy swimming.
Jonas Lange Right? Like this just feels like a epilogue to Swimming (its great but still).
I’m trying very hard to understand this. I honestly believe swimming is the superior album (marginally). Even though others might disagree, I can’t see Swimming being a 3 and Circles being nearly THREE times better?
@@mattnash3873 gotta be honest i do not think that's how ratings work haha
@@Heavycakes nah lmao I feel you, I just consider these two albums so similar thematically and sonically that I'd actually apply that kind of math here
Jonas Lange Circles feels way more focused and refined than Swimming. The instrumentation is much richer, the acoustics are amazing, and it all spotlights Mac’s voice in a very singer/song writer balladeer type of way.
RIP Mac, glad his stylistic transition could be realized in Melon’s eyes
Fr, I love macs chill, melodic sound
Overrated
Well said Patrick
@@OkaySoShit Underrated*
@@kavoj9483 overrated
“My god, it go on and on, it’s like a circle I go back where I’m fromm” - last line on swimming..
ugh
So it goes 🥺💔
Sly Knight my favorite song. It both breaks my heart and heals me internally all at once 🥺
David so it goes and dunno get me every time.. RIP MAC
underrated track also
Why is everybody sleeping on once a day tho
word it’s one the best tracks
Facts same as that’s on me
its so good, plays way deeper into the Circle theme of the album too
"I'm not real, I think I never was."
Watch Wilson great song
I get a rush everytime she let me get a touch
I need to feel that love, I need to feel that pain. My garden hasn’t been growin’ so can you bring that rain?
@@downfromthereeefters i keep my head up (high), a little fed up (lies)
*Because Swimming and Circles are meant to connected I'm going to take this as a 3+8 - so we have our first 11/10.*
Or an 11/20
There we go. I like that.
Thirty Year Old Mulberry Field r/woooosh
Kanye got 6 twice which was the first 12/10
all king gizzard albums are connected so based on his reviews so far 47/10
Dear Music Industry:
This is the correct way to do posthumous music
In the Vulture article Brion mentions that he was called by one of the few genuinely good human beings in the music industry and that's who connected Mac. He was an exec at Warner. I'm guessing outside of his family caring, his label wanted this to be good because they cared about him too. It's heartwarming to know people loved him but fuck me it makes it hurt more that he's gone.
That opening track tho...
cried my eyes out with it. Had to pause it and wait a good 20 minutes to continue with the rest of the album.
I know I'm a year late, but how did you feel about once a day?
I disagree with this man on many, many things. But since he's the only person I've heard give a shout-out to Mac's rap verse on Hand Me Downs, all is forgiven
Still my favorite song off the album.
Blue World is just amazing, the beat and sampling is so refreshing.
Rest in Peace Mac.
winlover37 Try listening to Disclosure.
they actually co-produced the song
I think it sounds like 2012 tbh
The sampling gave me Kanye vibes
Disclosure should make more hip-hop beats
"This was so good, and it's very sad to know that Mac will not be progressing past this point." That broke my heart :(
Anthony at the ending: please leave a like, please don't cry
Me: starts crying
Fantano. I created this account just to comment on this video. You should listen to this album with the tracklist order reversed. Completely changed the feeling of the album and brought a different meaning to the title.
I will do this.
I Provide Playlists. Is that for real or supposed to be like a DAMN. joke? Cos if you’re fr ima try that :)
Is this including right and floating?
@@gamestation130 Do you really think damn changed meaning listening backwards?
Alejandro Serrano it’s a reference to how kendrick released i think a deluxe version of DAMN. with just the track list reversed and nothing else
'Blue World' and 'Hand Me Downs' are easily my favorite songs on this.
Danduhman fax. hand me downs is so so good
Loved Blue World and sure enough, it’s produced by Disclosure
Danduhman Blue World reminds me so much of his older stuff from like 2012 and it makes me so happy.
@@aaronjohnson8995 those and "Woods" for me.
I really digged Surf, everybody was awesome too
very surprised you didnt mention the song "once a day" in this video. i feel like thats one of the most emotional and heartfelt songs ive ever heard.
Word
Hayden Schwab there was more than one word
@@oelaty9116 not funny, didnt laugh
zomby | 2k15 if it makes your dead soul feel any better I agree with your comment, I just don’t know why Hayden responded with “word”
I understand now stop laughing at me
travis la flame it’s what people say when they agree with someone
Damn, Earl sweatshirt and Mac would’ve made some great music together..
Look up new faces v2... Top 5 mac song of all time.
Clutch_City_Beauts yup such a great song
Also polo jeans ft earl sweatshirt 👍🏻
They have a bunch of songs together wtf you mean
Im not real and guild
Melon broke out the yellow flannel for our boy Mac. I was so happy when you said how his vocals sound so upfront, it’s like whoever mixed and mastered this album made it sound like Mac is rapping/singing every lyric right next to us, right into our ears. The album is beautiful.
I can't disconnect this album from his death. Every part of it feels like a farewell from Mac. I got the chance to meet both Mac Miller and Tyler the Creator at Dirty O's in Pittsburgh (if you are from Pittsburgh you'll know where that is). I didn't know him but the team I was with was freaking out. He talked to us and me for a while and even said: "You're the calmest one here so I bet you're the leader."
He shook my hand and was very nice. Funnily enough, I was the captain of the team at that time. I wish I was a fan of him at that time. I wish I could meet him again. There's no point to this story, Mac was just really important to the City of Pittsburgh and a real talent. I'm glad he got a good send-off. RIP Mac
Your story brought a little tear to my eye. Thank you for sharing. R.I.P. Mac.
DAMN.
This is a pretty cool story. Thanks!
Bryce Johnson this is an awesome story! i’m glad you shared
🤙🏽👍🏽
This was a beautiful album. It is literally a movie. Jon Brion did his thing.
Well, Brion is also a film composer so it makes sense
@@LautFErrotabere I know. That is why I love it so much.
@@mooseraps Lady Bird's soundtrack is one of my fave.
It is not literally a movie
@@FlasKamel Shut up
Before circles came out, i was totally hooked on swimming, and then circles happened.
Now I am swimming in circles.
Man... from KIDS to Circles. Almost like god used Mac for a much higher purpose. His music followed me throughout my life and matured the way I did. Just thinking about his talent and how far he came musically just makes me want to tear up and reminisce. Time flies, and people like Mac really make you appreciate life and the twists and turns it throws you. His death is truly heartbreaking, he died way too young. Makes me cherish my loved ones that much more. RIP to a TRUE legend....
You know it’s gonna be a serious review when Anthony introduces himself as “Anthony Fantano”
Shit I had to go back to see. Didn't think that was legal
Jakobus it’s not. The cops are on their way, melon boy
Just like the Some Rap Songs review. Like To Pimp a Butterfly too.
When hes serious about an album he opens up with his real name, most of the time at least
He opens with his real name on speeding bullet 2 heaven as well
@@squidinator5708 The melon likes to hit ya with those sneaks every once in a while, can't be too predictable.
Being from Pittsburgh, this album meant a lot to me. I’ve been listening to Mac for years. I’ll never forget the day I heard my friends come into school and tell me about this dope album called Blue Slide Park from a Pittsburgh rapper. I listened and was hooked on him from then on. The day he passed was also the day I moved out of Pittsburgh when I got a big boy job elsewhere. Was tough. Im just glad his last album was a good one.
tonyp114 Bummer that the Penguins lost to the Flyers tonight
Bro I’m from Texas but went to work in Pittsburgh for 3 months and I love that city it’s a big change of pace from the metroplex where I live. it’s chill af. Whole different vibe
Derek Wadas yeah they played terrible
that’s nuts bro i knew about mac from KIDS it’s crazy to think people in pittsburgh might not have heard about him until even later
tonyp114 damn that must’ve been a sad day dealing with both of those on the same day
Anthony: "Please don't cry"
Me: too late
It kind of sucks that nobody is talking about the fact that the album is a circle in it self.
The album ends on a note that is not normally a note to end on but to lead to and end but the first note of the first song is a note that is normally used to end you are meant to listen to circles as it shows you a circle with music fully completing the deeper story through out the whole album. With themes of everything around mac feeling like a loop just restarting over and over like a circle. Truly one of the best albums in my generation just wish we got to see more from him
The last note of the Once a day leaves you in suspense and almost sounds like there should be something more, then it loops around to Circles and the first note is one that "resolves" the tension in terms of music theory. It also is a metaphor for his life being cut short before he could defeat his demons and not therefore not being "resolved". The end of the album could honestly be a metaphor for a thousand other things too.
This was a good review. There’s no joke here. Good job Anthony.
Ploo Sure, the scores great... but you haven’t even watched the whole thing yet
Ploo After seeing him ball his eyes out in the Good News review vid, I knew right than and there this album wasn’t gonna be any lower than an 8
I've listened to Mac since about 2009 and the way he's transitioned musically is truly amazing. I love the direction he was heading and I almost felt like I was growing up with how his music grew. Thank you for getting me through the tough times Mac. You'll always be my favorite artist.
And what a blessing and a sorrow that "it ain't 2009 no more" 😔♥️
it ain’t 2009 no more
yeah i know what’s behind that door
Damn you’ve got a low bar. Hopefully the next artist you get into is better at portioning his dope 😂
@@randomdude189 Damn you probably clicked the video just to talk trash
@@randomdude189 bro we get it you don't like Mac
The "Please don't cry" in the outro hit different this time...
Why did I get goosebumps when he said “RIP Mac Miller forever” :(
The fact we will never know what mac would be doing after this record is probably the saddest thought. :(
Sethamphetamine we do know, he was going to release a pure hip hop album after circles. Beyond that yeah we have no clue
@@DoleMemes That makes it even more sad since his last pure hip hop album, GO:OD AM was great..
@Noise Pollution LOL
@@DoleMemes mac was like 2pac in a way with music he has hundreds of music mac worked harder then anyone in the music industry he was a true aritis I'm just happy his family is protecting his legacy
@Noise PollutionTypical junky? You're just fucking ignorant. He wanted to be alive and if it wasnt for the fentanyl that was maliciously laced in it he'd still be alive today and would've probably finished getting help. He had demons, but addiction and substance use doesnt make someone a bad person. Go to hell. @Rick you too
Mac Miller was also of the melon species...and god damn what an amazing melon Mac was.
This comment genuinely made me laugh so hard. Thank you
Mac mellon
Haven’t had such a wholesome laugh in recent memory. Thank you very much for that
This comment is a strong 10
lets get this one to top comment, real shit right here lmao
As someone that has listened to Mac Miller since High school and being the same age as this incredibly gifted soul, I find myself agreeing with a lot of your critiques, comments, and break downs, with the one major exception coming at Surf. Maybe its just personal preference but I think Surf is one of my favorite on the album. The juxtaposition of a love poem-esque approach and then the loneliness segment vibes to me gives it more than a 1 dimensional feel. The slow progression to the song makes the length feel very fitting and appropriate, with the last 1-2 minutes providing a much appreciative wind down to either breathe, take it all in, just purely vibe, or just finish collecting ones thoughts.
The line : "Yeah, well, sometimes I get lonely, not when I'm alone but it's more when I'm standin' in crowds that I'm feelin' the most on my own" --- hits like a damn freight train.That one passage in itself makes me take a step back and appreciate it more. To each their own though.
Should have been a 9 . How do you not hear the Beatles influence on “That’s On Me” my favorite song on the record.
My guy just appreciate the fact that he loved the album. "That's On Me" is my favorite song too though.
Jesus Christ shut up
"Everybody" too, singing style sounds kinda McCartney-ey.
8 On Its Side Is Infinity. Mac Miller Forever.
Melon Forever Also.
.... is that a line from the album?
Reside baby!!
MARCUS Dawson!
@@isaacmelendez2241 Nah, the score Fantano gave it. Plus Mac's 92 to infinity.

I don’t think Complicated gets enough love. The “inside my head is getting pretty cluttered. I’ve tried but can’t clean up this mess I’ve made” line is amazing to me
Before I start to think about the future, first can I please get through a day, without any complications.
I love Complicated it’s a great song
Then he talks about spring cleaning in his head on Good News
The hooks so good too
"Some people say the want to live for-ever
that's way too long can i just get throught a day
Without any complications"
Like i feel that so hard
Everybody sound very Beatles inspired the way he delivers it
to me, this album is a strong, strong 9. I love every single song so much
Turn that 8 sideways because Mac Miller will live forever...
Zach Smith oh yeah yeah

Mac’s parents handled this so well and did everything right with this unlike X’s parents
X’s mom is one of the worst people in the world imo and I’m indifferent on X
@@AWMK101 Xs mom was never there for him and only cares now about him because he can make her money
The Morening Bruh she’s awful, she put up a pop up museum to promote his album and showed the car he was shot in off at it.
Swimming deserved a better, way better rating
Personally, surf is one of my favorite from the album

This is literally my fav album of all time not even joking
Even though it's probably not even my favorite of the year or even the 21st century, I get where you're coming from
Same bro, same
What more can you say about this album. It’s a beautiful piece of work from a very special individual, that is more special because Mac is no longer with us, yet through the magic of music, it feels like he still is. As a fan of course I would like to hear more music from Mac, but if this is the last album we ever get from him, I am beyond happy. Woods is my favorite song. I can go on forever about how much Mac is one of the persons that has inspired me to pursue music and has given me so many great memories. Objects in the mirror, will forever be my favorite song of his. If there is any album that deserves the yellow flannel, it’s this one. I hope wherever Mac is, he is happy and at peace, and proud at what he managed to accomplish while he was here.
circles doesnt even feel posthumous, it jus feels like Macs back
This is melons form of an apology for the swimming review
I didn't love Swimming but holy hell I don't see how it's a 3.
I know Fantano's opinion but man I just can't see it on that one
i hadnt watched an Anthony video for who knows how long and i didnt expect to finish watching one again with tears in my eyes. i didnt feel any sense of nostalgia until he concluded the review where i realized this would be the last mac album he’ll ever review again. i remember listening to albums whenever i can just to refer to what anthony had to say and mac’s album reviews were what id always anticipated for. i still listen to alot of music but in a different scape and watching this really took me back.
love u melonhead 💙
macs music always seemed to correlate with my life. he was around making those giddy tracks from bde when i was in high school. and his music slowly changed into something different as i too was slowly changing and to have lyrics that progressed with my own life, up until this point, has truly been a blessing. i can always go back and listen to his music and know exactly where i was in life at the time those tracks had a profound influence on me. rip mac. no other artist’s passing will hurt as much as this.
I think this is my favorite album as a whole from Mac. As an artist, I've experienced the opposite effect of most, I hated his early projects but as he grew and his style changed and progressed, I started to like his work and him more and more. Sad to see that he won't continue to progress as I've grown to love his newer, darker, jazzier albums.
Mac's family did him well 🖤 much respect the way this was handled
this album came out the day before my grandfather passed away. Glad this album was so good and it also being so touching to me. couldnt have came out at a better time.
I’m just so thankful that this was done so tastefully. I have so much respect for you. I’m just happy people are listening to Mac 💛
Had a smile on my face during this entire interview. Very bittersweet
Fair review Anthony, and R.I.P Mac Miller
Woah what I watch your videos how did I find you through all of these comments
@@icemanalex5370 :D woah thats crazy lmao
This is how to address the legacy of a rapper
KNACK 2 BAYBEE
K N A C K X’s legacy was ruined
I’m not a huge Mac Miller fan, but this album has really gotten me into him, I LOVE the song “Blue World” it’s so upbeat and fun!
This album made me genuinely cry, and so did what you had to say about it. It's disheartening to know that there won't be anymore projects from Mac, but I wasn't expecting this either. A great final project. ❤
This might be one of the few posthumous albums that Fantano has ever given a yellow flannel to. Rest easy Mac, you’ve done well.
Not true, he gave Prince's Originals an 8/10 with a yellow flannel as well
Michael Cepeda AHH I FORGOT ABOUT THAT. Time to edit the comment
Blackstar
@@eduardo_moya ALMOST posthumous but bowie was alive until a couple days after it came out
Shurikenofdoom Yeah I think Bowie dropped it before he passed
I can’t articulate how much of a blessing this album is
I've watched a lot of music reviews from you over the times but I just had to leave a comment for this one thank you for this.
Also, loved the description “pillowy mist of sound” 🔥
Ngl I expected this kind of review for swimming when it came out. Still disagree with you about the rating for that album but circles is definitely better to me. Great album.
Lucan nah imo swimming is at least a 8/10
1 No way. It’s a 7 AT MOST
Watching Movies is the only true 8 in Macs library.
Swimming is a little better. A more complete piece of beautiful art. Circles is great but you can tell it was puzzle-pieced together. Fantano was a hater for no reason
Vic Vinegar Mac fans overrate Swimming just stop. It was decent.
I have had this album on repeat since it released. A real piece of art.
It was a phenomenal album. I cried several times listening to it, felt so many emotions, and had a lot of deep thoughts about life and death. We will be bumping you down here on earth forever Mac, RIP.
Checkout his last picture taken..
His last video “self care” ft. Him in a casket..
The last words on this album...
Swimming Was premeditated to tie this project back to this project.
All that and throughout swimming, Cirlces.. shit even GO:OD had the song Perfect Circle!
Crazy. Poetic.. Tragic... RIP brother. Wanted to keep growing up w/ ya
Didnt have to give a 0 just cause its called "Circles"
J. South that’s bars🔥
Well an 8 has two "circles", and 0 is just a "circle"
That's why he gave it an 8 because there's more than one circle in there
an 8 is two circles
@@leonthethird7494 8 is actually the infinite sign right side up
Loved this album so much, and personally I liked Swimming a lot too even though his vocals were very reverbed and mixed with the instrumentals. Honestly I kinda liked that part of it personally, very chill, so was this album. RIP Mac Miller
I get the impression that Melon found in Circles the stuff that we other Mac Miller fans found in Swimming but he didn't
Yall know it’s a serious review when he says his real name
