I can’t deny that he has some taste (Which I’ll get to). My biggest problem with this album, just like every other Miller project I’ve bothered to look into, is Miller himself. I was hoping, with all these features from proven lyricists, that he’d improve a bit as a rapper on Watching Movies With the Sound Off. He also has a tendency to play with words sporadically, but what he’s saying never carries any weight. The production was OK, but Miller himself tends to stick to a monotone delivery that just kind of aggravates me. I gave Blue Side Park a listen when it came out, and I found myself rather unimpressed. Now (perhaps out of nowhere, or perhaps because I’ve just kind of ignored the guy) he drops an album featuring Earl Sweatshirt, Tyler the Creator, Schoolboy Q, Action Bronson…basically a ton of really talented and somewhat underground rappers. Back then I probably associated him with that idiotic Donald Trump song. He was an act that teen girls always got really excited about. I mean, just a few years ago, It was pretty easy to just ignore him. Mac Miller is one of several rappers that deeply confound me.
