A hotel lobby styled instrumental for a reintroduction to his fans. The horns opening to the mixtape set stage for Mac’s lazy flow. He studied the famous faces of his new friends, the face of his lover, and his own face in the mirror - what had fame brought him, and was it what he wanted? Part One - “Shit is changed ain’t little Malcolm with the baby face” With Mac, rap turned inward and took stock of reflections. He ditched his care-free rapping on the project with a Guernica-styled cover over an unsettling yellow backdrop.

Mac Miller debuted Faces that spring and shut the party down. Nothing offensive, just enough to stay afloat and enjoy the party senior year. I did physics for $10 and got help with computer science by over-achieving juniors. We shamelessly established an informal but robust cheating system. Ambitious students had to make sure their grades were strong for mid-year transcripts - but state school kids were in the clear. I was a high-school senior and the fall was the most worry-free time I can remember.
In the fall, during the heyday of TDE, ScHoolboy Q’s Oxymoron and Isiah Rashad’s Cilvia Demo , and Chance’s Acid Rap owned the cassette tape-to aux speakers. In 2014, it was Acid Rap, Flatbush Zombies BetterOffDead, and Childish Gambino’s Kauai. Kanye kicked off the summer in rap when he locked himself in a Paris Penthouse for 2 weeks to write the entirety of his new album, which also doubled as his new alter-ego, Yeezus. They lived in a different spot on your phone and consciousness - mixtapes only got ranked against each other. You’d have to listen on SoundCloud or DatPiff. Mixtape music a decade ago was a different world.
In three parts, Mac shows the cost of realized dreams, searches his reality for meaning, ultimately accepts the strange sweetness of wisdom at the expense of innocence. The album speaks to anyone who has looked in the mirror and found the bitter sweetness of lost innocence. In the 20 song journey, he held a mirror up to himself and let his fanbase into his struggles with his own reflection, which revealed drug addictions, isolation, and numbing riches. Mac Miller’s Faces, recently released on Spotify 7 years after it was released as a mixtape, was his boldest exploration of the self. The mirror is the battleground where the whole of life is laid bare, where only the stream-like thoughts of the mind can provide an explanation. Look at yourself in a mirror all your life and you’ll see Death at work, like bees in a hive of glass.” The 1950 French film Orpheus portrayed the mirror as the place to watch death’s course perhaps a less macabre interpretation is of the mirror as a lifelong place struggle with self.
