Circles!

Mac Miller's family releases Circles in honor of the rapper. Mac Miller passed away from a fatal drug overdose.
An iconic rapper passed away nearly two years ago and Warner Records released an album with some of his unreleased music.

We were shocked that Mac Miller passed away. Mac Miller (born Malcolm J. McCormick) was a rapper, music producer, actor and media mogul. He was born in Pittsburgh and began his career in the music around 2007. At age 15, Mac was signed to Rostrum Records and broke into the music scene.

He has released 13 mixtapes, two live albums and six albums. His critically acclaimed album, Swimming was posthumously nominated for a Grammy.

He released mixtapes under the pseudonym of Larry Fisherman and Delusional Thomas.

Mac passed away from substance abuse. He was found dead in his Los Angeles home by his management team. He had just finish his video shoot that day. He was found to have a "mixed drug toxicity" of fentanyl, cocaine and alcohol.

Three dope pushers who were associated with Mac's death were criminally charged. The three men could face 30 years to LIFE in the iron college if convicted.

Nonetheless, Mac Miller's legacy will live on.

Mac Miller's family has released his sixth and final studio album titled "Circles."

Listen here.



The family had announced the album last week and shared a new song, "Good News."

Miller's new release is meant to be a sister album to his 2018's Grammy-nominated "Swimming," completed with the help of producer Jon Brion.

Miller worked with Brion on with "Swimming" and had been working with him on "Circles" at the time of his death in September 2018.
The pains of a man.
"Circles" features Miller singing and rapping along to live instrumentation. The album is available on streaming services via Warner Records.

The late musician's family took to his Instagram page with a post about the music.

Along with the album's release, there will be three fan pop-up exhibitions in celebration of Miller in Los Angeles, New York and Pittsburgh, which will feature intimate, front-to-back listenings of "Circles," as well as a multimedia art exhibition.

Entry is free and all net proceeds from pop-up merchandise sales will go to The Mac Miller Fund.

With Eminem releasing his eleventh album, it will be a clear frontrunner for the No. 1 spot on Billboard.
