Swimming - Mac Miller: Episode 217

We were drowning and now we're Swimming in the depths of Mac Miller's introspective 2018 record, the final album he'd release in his lifetime. We'll talk about the Pittsburgh native's EZ Mac days and his evolution from frat lyrics to his now-signature deeply personal jazz rap. Swimming features hits like What's The Use and Self Care that see Mac navigate addiction, complicated relationships, and the road to healing. The Mixtaper will teach us about several Larries, big hot dogs, and a petty zoo. Miller's impact and legacy will be an inspiration in music for ages to come.. how will we score this unique record? Brace yourself, because we'll never run out of Jet Fuel!
