Mac Miller - The Divine Feminine (10th Anniversary) [3LP Red, Maroon & Black Ice]
Mac Miller's The Divine Feminine turns ten with a 3LP anniversary edition on red, maroon and black ice vinyl, adding three previously unreleased songs from the original sessions.
Released in 2016, a year after GO:OD AM, the album found Miller stepping away from straight rap toward a concept record about love and the women who shape a life. It blends alternative hip-hop with jazz, neo-soul, funk and R&B, and it remains the warmest, most romantic record in his catalogue, full of loose grooves and lovestruck candour.
Dang!, with Anderson .Paak, is a bright, funky highlight, while My Favorite Part pairs him with Ariana Grande for a tender, unguarded duet. The closing God Is Fair, Sexy Nasty brings in Kendrick Lamar for a slow, glowing finale, and Bilal, Ty Dolla $ign and CeeLo Green add their own shades of soul along the way.
The third LP holds the bonus material, including Butterflies, an unearthed session track, alongside two more songs that live only on the physical edition, a real treat for longtime fans.
Wrapped in new cover art, it is a heartfelt way to celebrate an artist whose generosity and curiosity spill out of every groove, and a lovely excuse to fall for this album all over again.
