GO:OD AM
“Wondering how I got this high, fell asleep, and forgot to die,” raps Mac Miller on “Weekend.” *GO:OD AM* represents a reawakening for the rapper, who, after struggling with temptation and addiction, emerges with clear eyes and a stronger focus. He slays bars with impunity on “Break the Law” and “Clubhouse.” He imparts the value of experiences and repercussions on “Brand Name” and “100 Grandkids.” *GO:OD AM* is like a late-night conversation with the MC—all the crazy stories, deep thoughts, and laughs—reminding us that whatever happens in life, the sun will come out tomorrow.
From start to finish, this is Mac Miller's most refined and well put-together project. He sounds like someone’s troubled little brother made good: from the album’s opening horns, you can sense that this is a victory lap of sorts, a homecoming.
