Whether it’s the explosive horns of “Here We Go” or “Therapy,” or the glossy pianos on “Diablo,” the production takes me back to a time when everything seemed simpler, much like Miller’s 2010 mixtape “K.I.D.S.” This is a breath of fresh air from the trap-inspired sound that dominates rap music today.
This gives the production, which includes bits of psychedelic influence and an emphasis on sampling, a very nostalgic feel. The mixtape is not much different from its original 2014 release. With everything I heard about “Faces,” I went in with high expectations-and they were met. However, this past September, about three years after his passing, Miller’s estate announced that the mixtape would finally be released to all major streaming services on Oct. I never sat down to listen to this album largely because sample clearance issues and other red tape prevented it from being released on listening platforms Spotify and Apple Music. The late Mac Miller released his mixtape “Faces” in May 2014 to wide fan and critical acclaim.
