Mac Miller's first posthumous album confirmed
As I already did XXXTentation at the end of last year, Lil Peep released his second posthumous album, Everybody's everything', in November 2019. Hopefully Juice Wrld do the same this year. And now it's Mac Miller's turn, who will have a new album in just a few days: Circles. To everyone's surprise, Genius even just released their tracklist.
The family of the late Mac Miller has just confirmed the release of the rapper's first posthumous album. Next Friday, January 17, it will go on sale circles, continuation of the celebrated previous work Swimming and, in a way, spiritual aftermath? If we put the titles of the two albums together we get a very self-descriptive phrase of what were the last bars of Mac Miller's life: swimming in circles. Until he drowned. It is worth remembering that Mac Miller, just like Juice WorldHe died of a drug overdose.

Interestingly, the prestigious and well-known website Genius has published a tracklist with the songs that it will have Circles. The list, which according to the website, is purely speculative, consists of eight songs and has been compiled based on the recent activity of Mac Miller before he died (snippets, singles and other service charges streaming).

As revealed by those responsible for Mac Miller's estate on social media, the album Circles is a continuation of Swimming In all rules. Below we translate the full note into Spanish.
Translation of the statement about the new Mac Miller album
Here we are. The simple act of having to write this is surreal. At the time of his death, Malcolm was in the thick of the recording process for the backing album for Swimming, qualified Circles. Two different styles complementing each other, completing a circle. Swimming in a circle was the concept. He had been working with Jon Brion, who, after hearing early versions of some of the songs, cleared out his schedule to help Malcolm fine-tune them. After his passing, Jon devoted himself entirely to finishing Circles based on conversations and time spent with Malcolm. We are eternally grateful to Jon and all those who gave their best to the difficult and emotional task of launching this body of work.
This is a complicated process with no right answer. No clear path. All we know is that it was important to Malcolm that the world be able to hear it. One of the hardest decisions in the process is how best to let people know about the record, how to communicate meaningfully while also keeping sacred what should be kept sacred. So this will be the only post on all of his channels. Information about the release, benefits, and Malcolm himself can be found at @92tilinfinity. Thank you to all the fans who have supported him unconditionally over the years. We miss him. We can only imagine where Malcolm was going and appreciate who he was. We hope you take the time to listen. The look on his face when everyone was listening spoke volumes.
with humility and gratitude. Malcolm's family.
Until now, the only posthumous material by Mac Miller that had seen the light had been a song entitled Free Nationals. It is also worth noting his Spotify session in which he honored nothing from nothing by Billy Preston in November 2018.
