He poured his soul & heart in music. This means that he will live forever through his music. His legacy will live forever. I will tell my kids about Mac Miller and my grandchildren. And I hope they will love him and do the same. This man will live forever❤ I also miss him, althoug I heard his song after his passing. And I miss this guy so much. I have cried several times when I saw his videoclips. Mac Miller, your name and music will forever be out there, to be discovered by many people and generations. Fuck 😭 the fucking ninjas 🥷 are cutting onions again. We miss you man
brilliant way to word your thoughts about our fallen artist. I miss him very much. he was so new on the yt when I first found him in his song blue slide park. the day news was announced that he passed on, i had a good amount of friends in my dms telling me he was gone. he impacted so many & in the art he left behind, he will continue with impacting others. I am a little sad for those who hadn't heard his music before the news of his passing. fly free Macadelic 🕊 @StarsMeltingOnIce
Hurts every time to think what we’d have now and in decades from now if he never got that laced BS. He said whoever sell me drugs, don’t mix it with that BULLSHIT! They couldn’t fuckin listen and the world missed out big time. Sad so sad.
the album released on august 3rd the same day as my first son it was a great experience having mac in my life through my preteens all the way until i had my first boy mac had an impact no one person could dream of having and the great thing is he made that impact on the masses not just me long live the most dope family
The day this drops on Spotify and other streaming platforms is the day people will see he's a true lyricist. Mac never got the credit he deserved at all. He changed so many of our lives in a positive way. I wish he was here to see how happy he made us all, he really is one of my life mentors
@@sallyrose692 his family fights tooth and nail to keep all his posthumous releases in line with his image. So I don't think we'll ever a cashgrab like with X's music happening. Not to mention the fans would riot.
you're doing yourself a disservice not using Soundcloud to listen to Mac, you might shit yourself when yuu find out how many songs you're missing out on
I had a hard time listening to mac for awhile after he elevated on us, but I just needed to get sober I guess. Now that the needles are gone for over a year I can't stop again. I always felt like he was literally just rapping to me. I am sure other addicts feel that too. Sometimes when I spend all day in my head, it Is nice to know someone else is too. I always hated being high and underneath the ceiling too. I love you mac.
Congratulations. Happy for you and I know Mac would be too. I hope I can get there myself. I guess I've been having a hard time for quite a long time now. But I love to listen to Mac Miller. Makes me wonder wat he knew that I don't ... From my living hell, I wish you well.hope to one day get out from under this hellacious witchcraft spell...I sorta have memories that I started tripping..but I don't remember when I must have fell...
Same here bro. I always felt me and Mac went through the same shit at the same time. His music spoke to me. I was able to get sober too luckily but it still hits different listening to Mac. Cheers
Addiction is the hardest shit dealing with it and watching your friends and family deal with it is hard it's conflicting and mentally taxing I've had to deal with 2 seizures and an overdose it changed my mentality having to go from partying to having to cup a life in your hands and just try and keep it going while at the same time being on the same shit
Malcom was such a cool guy man, went to high school with dude, even though his family had money & he never struggled financially he never was one to brag or boast about it, he always wore the same beat up Nikes to class & never tried to portray an imagine of “being rich” Definitely one of the most humble people I’ve ever met. Rest in Paradise bro, Pittsburgh misses you
I’m glad I got the chance to meet you twice... both pics are my screen saver and background. The fact you remembered me the second time because the first I got to go backstage because I left my GA at home but needed it to get my VIP pic so one of the guys said I could go back after the concert and the fact I got to talk to you for about 20 minutes made my life and that following year on the Divine feminine tour when I showed you the pic from the green room you smiled and said “yeah I remember you” and the security guard told me to keep moving but you said “nah chill it’s cool” showed you care about your fans. RIP a hero and life saver for many. Scratch Ralph on the head for me
“I throw em’ back like opponents hit a homer, my mind it holds explosion like a pose that’s on a poster” This alone is one of the craziest bars I’ve ever heard
2:13 Simple thoughts got me itchin' like the chicken pox, knitted socks with fingers Tryna scratch a lotto ticket off. I regularly think about this bar. The imagery is actually incredible

In a parallel Universe he’s alive and well 15 years ahead of us. The whole world recognizes him as one of the greatest of all time. He’s got hella kids too. Every time he’s caught out in public he’s smiling- visibly happy and healthy . Navigating with grace. The dark days behind him. Let’s go Mac
I’m an old head and won’t pretend that I followed all his work but I always liked what I heard and respected this kid. We lost a truly unique talent with this one. May he be at peace.
If you ever get the chance, dive into his solo songs he put out on soundcloud/RU-vid between 2013/15 or so. they're an interesting area of his most people don't hear
Dr Sess you said just how I felt in my post! I too am old and just got too emotional and could not even type with no typos. I appreciate your post! I will always listen to Mac and Thundercat and Anderson.Paak!
@@cordeliakates6044 "Today you are You, that's truer than true. There's no one alive who is Youer than YOU!" Wise words by the real Doc Seuss. Blah,ha,ha!!! 🤘🤪🤘 PEACE
5 years ago today this man dropped one of the most effortless freestyles of all time, and one of the Best albums of the 2010s. Man’s a legend. Gone but never forgotten. Rest in paradise Mac, 92 til Infinity.
Such a talented witty dude. Had a way with keys, guitars and could sing along with the whole sway of the beat. Nothing will beat that to me when it came to what stood out to me
Why don't more rappers do things like this, I mean honestly I need an example of another rapper that's done something like this. And not just a random freestyle, like this a calculated rap that he clearly prepared along the theme of Swimming and live recorded one take with his homies, like so casual and shit he just destroys it and drops it right before the album like it's nothing. Plus he shows his producing skills on the spot like seriously what the fuck was Mac on. Another level honestly
He’s the GOAT. If he hadn’t died he easily could have cranked out enough records to top any other artist. He dropped 20 projects in his short career that were each crazy versatile. He was a true musician and no one else will ever have that kind of talent
Mac is one of the only artist that have so many amazing songs that werent even on an album. Now I know what he meant when he said " my throw aways will trash ya.."
Mac is _Most Dope_ ... i love this style - no flexing, no thots, just Mr Miller in a studio with a mic. i would love to see a couple more visuals like this
Brooo.. TRUTH! i was seriously expecting a deep depression that would cause him to lose it.. but he dug deeper than deep and brought us this. Shits funny cuz when i was heartbroken over a wack ass bitch i couldnt focus on anything. This man gets dropped by arianna grande and becomes his greatest version yet
Even after all this time, the double entendres in this song still give me that “OOOOOHHHHH SHIIIIT” feeling. Thanks Easy Mac with the Cheesy Raps. Rest easy 🙏🏾

I always think it should be *weight* instead of way in that rollercoaster line. I also always hear, *God's finest spark*, not work. But I listen to this too much to care if it's wrong. It's great.
It’s crazy how good he was at putting bars ffsother , everytime I hear that like I think it’s “I was high like I’m born to fly, never die I’m immortalized” either way he’s spitting straight bars
he's not high i'd say, he's just in the "flow" as in the zone. The whole world stopped as he was doing this, and just him and his music were all there was. That's the flow state. So try not to jump to conclusions my love. I hope that didn't offend ya, if it did i'm sorry. We all just miss this genius man. RIP Malcom, i got my vivatrol shot on your 30th birthday. It was an honor......
@mt angelo Na bruh he's high af. You can see it in his eyes, which don't lie. It's no disrespect but simply just what it is. And we know Mac was going through shit around this time. Ik from experience he's got the nod slightly going here. It's obvious but no one is judging, he was fighting demons and now he's with the angels...RIP Mac!
mag1ngarr0w honestly man. Respects to uzi creation but are you really really listening to what’s being said? This is a whole other level. Just listen to what’s being said. He ran laps around other rappers.
Me too man, me too. The brother I never had or an old good friend that you’ll always be close with. He’s missed so dearly by so many. Close to 5 years now and his music is still being discovered by new fans. I know it’ll be the same ten years from now.
Thats good man. I dont know what its like to be in your shoes but trust me you are doing the right thing. My sister is an addict and I dont know what to do to help other than hope and pray she realizes before its too late..
I love every Mac song, but this one is on that same Diablo vibe where it’s only fkn bars. To me that’s my favorite of Mac because he makes analogy’s that one couldn’t possibly think of, so confident and showing off how many different ways he is better then every rapper
Jayzus. That was ill. Mac was like 4 different artists in one body. Swimming is a masterpiece, and I so often find myself wondering what we're missing out on because he's gone.
A LOt! PROOF FROM THIS FREAKING VIDEO. AL THAT EQUIPMENT. AND HE AINT GET TO FINISH CIRCLES. think about what else he might have added to what already are, heavy lyrics.
Same here man. I was a young shit head bumping shit that was just hard to find underground wise at the time. Like 09? Shit has me struck. Condolences to every loved one 🙏
I had to take a minute and really try to understand . This dude was my age bro I fucked with his music ever since I understood the love of hip hop . I was into tupac , biggie old school shit . But at the time growing up in highschool with friends this is the type of music we would put on . Kinda makes me feel like I lost a close friend ...
@@jakedake4515 that too lol. But he was something else. He played every instrument, made all of his own music. Some people just feel music differently.
@@autumnsky846 The first time I watched this I also thought he was on sth. But after paying more attention, I realised I pull same the faces whenever I hear the whine of two metal components grinding against eachother or a fan blade striking a cable. Even with a blindfold on, I could find the source of the noise and fix it. What he hears are the pieces of a beat that don't quite mesh together. And he adjusts it until it is just right.
I am the only one who does not look for all his music? because when there is one in my recommendations I feel like he comes back to earth for 5min.. can’t believe I’m gonna run out of his 'new' music one day
I don’t think you will. If you look you will find he made so much music dude just search and spend time with everything you find and you won’t run out but he has more unreleased music than anyone I’ve ever listened to out and around to find
Listen to one album on repeat at a time, switch to an old album and vice versa, keeps it fresh for me. (Lets be real we can't do it he's too good on every album it needs to be alternated)
t millz right bro. I never met the dude but I connected w him so much. From a lot of shit he rapped about. It sucks man. Almost 3 months later and I think about the kid every mother fuckin day
long live mac miller my favorite rapper of all time i had to come back and rewatch this video just too see you rapping my guy! i hope god made some room for you up there and i hope you’re at peace now and no longer depressed! 👼🏼💙💿
He's hanging around multi-dimensional being he is now. Didn't cross over, can if he wants to. Hangn around for us, says we still need em' still.... He's mostly creating, making music...chilln comfy pair of champion sweats. It was a accident. Luv' ya Mack! Peace, Zach
I watched a psychic that was saying she was asked to read Mac. (She was older & apparently didn't know who he was..) She was pretty spot on & also said he hadn't crossed over yet..I believe it's on TikTok.
Playing keyboards in the beginining to show you he is not a rapper but a musician, one of the most creative minds in our music history and preparing to bless us with future albums saved by the library of congress. Cannot believe there won't be more.
Mac Miller’s words flown out of his mouth like fucking liquid man. He was so underrated... His career was just starting to take off too. This man would’ve had the music industry in the palm of his fucking hands.
Why do you people think is a freestyle? Jesus christ grow up freestyles dont go this smooth . This a song. Even the freestyles on away and flex are written . Grow up
This shit just breaks my heart as much as any Mac video. He was working Jon Brian on a trilogy project. First was meant to be a hybrid (swimming), second was mean to be a singing album (circles), and third was meant to be a return to rap (untitled). This feels exactly like it was meant to be third album. Fug. Heart breaking
@@twistedhalomusic4497 waaaaaait! Because when Jon brion first said it was a three part project, I thought he was full of shit because what could be added to "Swimming in Circles"? I let it go for months and just a few days ago I was thinking about it again and was like the only thing that would make sense would be "Swimming in Circles Forever" & I was like that's so lame, he wouldn't dare lol. But infinity is the same as forever and makes so much sense. Idk why I didn't think of it before considering 92 til Infinity has been the theme of his afterlife. "Swimming in Cirlces til Infinity" definitely makes sense, although lots of artists' teams, family, & fans say "DOB-Infinity" once they pass. Idk, I think there is still a possibility that Jon Brion is bs-ing, but this is possible, too.
@@twistedhalomusic4497 As soon as I saw the comment i thought the same thing, I STG Swimming in Circles Till Infinity. Glad I'm not the only mac head with this thought process.
I’ve started now and it isn’t easy. I don’t make a lot of money and my equipment is spare. One day I hope to be here. And Mac was five years younger than me. You can always chase your dreams.
no matter the vibes of the day, I make certain to pay homage to you and your legacy by listening to some of my favorite songs by you. You truly were a King its Forever Most Dope
