Mac Miller's First Posthumous Single Is 'Good News'

NPR  

Mac Miller's First Posthumous Single Is 'Good News' YouTube Mac Miller's estate has released the rapper's first posthumous single, "Good News," from the just-forthcoming Circles, out January 17. To flesh out some of his early sketches for the project, Miller enlisted Jon Brion — who, after Miller's death, cleared his schedule and dedicated himself to finishing the album. It's hard to hear Miller rap "there's a whole lot more for me waiting on the other side" without the heart sinking — a feeling that now lurks at the edges of Miller's music. There are likely many more Mac Miller songs and fragments in the vault, but Circles may be the last time we're so close to his vision.
