[@ilovecody7514]

One of the things that should be noted with Faces is that at the time Mac was in a REALLY dark period in his life. For all intents and purposes this was supposed to be his final album because he anticipated dying not too long after Faces would be released. Which really goes to show based on the lyricism and the way this album is organized. I feel like Faces has aged so well because it also doubled as a epilogue to Mac's life.

The entire time this album was on in my headphones not only helping me get the job done but helping me internally. Hearing my emotions being put into words made me feel like he was talking to me from the afterlife. Ik that's corny but I got no one to talk to about anything going on in my head. But when Mac speaks it's like he already knows and is there for me. I can't thank this man enough and I wish he was still here.

I've had this mixtape downloaded for a long time but after Mac's death I started going back through his discography on some albums/songs I skipped over or didn't dig into. I think a lot of his music has aged really well from KIDS to the posthumous Circles. I feel like the music he was making at the end of his life was the best and most realized in terms of an original artistic style for Mac. Anyways the livestream they did to commemorate this project had stellar visuals and I was blown away by it so I have been spinning this one really for the first time actively listening to it. I had no idea how great this entire project is from start to finish. I love the videos of Mac playing piano and his Tiny Desk Concert is great. When he first popped on the scene with KIDS I was very stoked on his music and over the years before he died I mostly lost touch with his music aside from a few songs like Dang! featuring Anderson .Paak which is a MF hit for Mac AND Cheeky Andy. I wish I had paid more attention over the years but once he died I really saw all the appreciation from the community and realized what a role he played in early online music and rap at large. I wish he was still around as I always found him to be a lighthearted thinker. So many artists including his contemporaries new & old in rap over the past few years it feels so odd to know how many are dead. I never thought Mac would go. Listening to Faces though I really understand the depths of his experimentation which lead to the hellish disease of addiction. Mac lived a good life and touched so many with his music and I'm glad he left behind great music and it seems the people handling his memory are doing a good job so far. RIP Mac. Forever kicking incredibly dope sh*t!

[@h_sth_r6942]

I was just nodding my head intensively and clapping from time to time watching this review. I'm so glad this album was re-released the way it was. I agree with everything you say. I couldn't have worded it better. This album is so hauntingly raw, it provides a glimpse into macs unfiltered thoughts and emotions. All of that expressed through music, presented to us for free, all those years ago. Mac is truly timeless. 92 til infinity. Thank you for uploading, it really warmed my heart to see someone honor this mixtape and mac as it should be honored. I'm beyond thankful for everyone who made this re-release possible. It really does him justice. Like you said, it fits in seamlessly with music contemporarily created, and i'm sure it will be like that for forever. It's fucking timeless. I was and still am devastated that we lost Mac, but now i realize we didn't lose him. He's very much here. And we need him, more than ever. Faces is brutally honest, and while many of us would want to look away from what it truly means, we shouldn't. It's time to wake up. This is reality, this is what happens, not only to mac. To many of us struggling. Mac is right here, for all of us to learn from. I see faces re-entering the charts right now as some (very much needed) fresh air. Ice cold. Mr Miller is here to show you some very, very real music. Now it's time to listen. And learn. I don't really know what i'm saying at this point so imma stop writing lmao but, i wish everyone to walk in light. and when you need a little help, to absorb all that wonderful energy captured in his music, music that he proceeds to give us and we'll never have to do without. Immortalized, here before our eyes. Thank you. ps: "Yeah" is the perfect addition to this album to me. What a note to end this masterpiece on. It's been on repeat since the re-release and it will be for a long time. The whole thing.

So glad that the 6/10 has been upped to a much more deserving 8/10. One of my favorite mixtapes of all time. I love that Mac Miller's estate has respect for his artistry and legacy because some of these estates really milk artists dry and I hate that. First XXX, then Pop Smoke with Faith and its looking like JuiceWRLD could also be added to that list. Even before those 3 its important to remember the milking of 2Pac. To see an estate be so careful to preserve the artists legacy and help bring previously existing mixtapes onto streaming rather than pull a bunch of mediocre tracks out of the vault and just kind of throw them at the wall hoping one sticks is very refreshing.

Liked this album the first time. I heard it. It has a special place in my heart. We miss you bro🎉

[@TheTriangleOffense47]

Man I can’t really believe its been 7 years since this came out. I used to bump this so much Junior year of high school and it STILL sounds fresh. So much has happened since then and It really is so trash that Mac isn’t here with us in the flesh, its still surreal to me. I really miss him

[@EnriqueTriana.]

ahh so any album that gets a 6 will get an 8 in redux version, now i get it thanks melon

[@braylorcasual9016]

faces the best mixtape ever

[@angel-fj5sb]

have a faces poster on my wall and i have a swimming tattoo on my ribs. My favorite artist of all time.

[@jivexero]

It’s a rough album to digest if you really listen to it. It’s hard to ignore the honesty. And can serve as a pretty strong warning for those that chose to go down that path... So truthful it seems genius.

[@bugcakes]

glad you liked it melon, i really liked the new mixing and the new track too

[@tylerstepp5636]

It really is great. So thankful it was released to streaming services and people who haven’t heard it love it too. Going for 3rd on billboard week 1 🔥

[@cmooreHD]

I can’t wait for my vinyl to show up. I’ll just set it on the table and lay on I an couch and consume it all. I miss Mac.

[@mandem888]

The estate should release the mac x madlib ep. them leaving that shelved is really upsetting

patience

[@lettucepizza]

Can't wait for run on sentences vol. 1 & 2 and delusional thomas on streaming

[@maryj306]

Doubt those will ever be on streaming platforms, the lyrics really didn't age well on Delusional Thomas and barely anyone knew about Run on Sentences because it was just experimental instrumental tracks. More likely to see I Love Life - Thank You, Maclib, SHOWTIME, or Stolen Youth next if anything.

[@dabs.47]

Nah it’s best to keep DT underground to prevent any bad press about the 🐐

PATHOLOGICAL LIAR. WENT TO MY GIRLFRIEND'S HOUSE AND SET HER DOG ON FIRE

[@ttarkus]

Yeah. And Balloonerism is never gonna be on streaming :( his 2nd best mixtape

[@dabs.47]

@@ttarkus never say never man if 8:21 am got released there’s a good chance for the other leaks and it’s a full length finished project so I don’t see why not lol I’m thankful it got leaked tbh

[@ethanwolff7453]

You not slick with the updated score in description!

[@spaciestcastle]

Honestly, thank you melon. The respect that you’ve shown this guy is admirable. He was my favorite artist since watching movies and I’m glad more people get to here one of his best works now

[@Jindu841]

He shit on Mac for most of his career while He was alive. This guy is TRASH . And does the music world no justice with his click bait criticism.

[@YungBuckTheLabrat]

Ive been meaning to listen to this Mixtape for a while, But now that its out as an album, I fee it is the right time to listen to it

[@Mugetsu64]

They hate when you’re a live and love you when you’re dead.

[@kingkev6338]

Faces is really an amazing mixtape and I think its because everyone who loves it relates very much to it and it is just good music that you can hear came from a deep place and people who hate Mac Miller would enjoy some of these tracks if not all of them RIP Mac❤️

[@Benjlmao1996]

anyone else remember how fantano disliked everything mac released until he died?

[@PhilFoal]

anyone else remember how fantano gave both Faces and Watching Movies With the Sound Off a 6 and GO:OD AM a 7?

[@xiscaw]

​@@PhilFoal i hear you but why tf did he give swimming a 3 but circles a 10 when circles is literally a sequel/extension to swimming

[@Oblivion9873]

@@xiscaw he didnt give circles a 10 lmao

[@vxoblivionxv]

Yep, pretty annoying

[@BangkokBlend]

bull.

[@sammydarko11]

This is my favorite Mac piece. Use to sit in the basement high as shit with the homies blasting it. I always go back to it. It never gets old.

[@saiyagoon]

Im very friken happy that Faces got an official release after 7 years since it's creation. Its the mixtape that made me a Mac Fan for life. However, I am a little bummed out that non of the other songs from the Faces Sessions got released except for "Yeah" (which was originally called "8:21am"). I would have loved for other cut Faces songs like "Garden Snakes" to finally be out for the public. Granted, I have a fat collection of these unreleased Mac songs, but I would still like for these songs to get officially released. Hopefully they will be in the future. But only time will tell.

[@ale_x263]

Yea. Ticonderogas, The Network, Are We There Yet. Fire tracks

[@templarexemplar35]

Didn't melon give faces a 6 when it dropped. For me this thing is probably my favorite album

[@Jindu841]

Yeah this guy is a garbage critic .

[@philipplip3754]

Mixtape os just damn fire. Gives you a certain vibe, its beautiful and scarry at the same time. I love it

[@nik_mik]

probably my favorite mixtape of all time
