Album Review: Mac Miller - The Divine Feminine

StarStarStarHalf Star

"A song cycle about love and sex (mostly sex)."

More Mac Miller Mac Miller Profile

Mac Miller remains the only major commercial white rapper with any artistic cred.

Presumably that's because of his thoughtful raps and good taste in beats and not his stoner delivery, which has been called a monotone and continues to be a make-or-break factor on all his releases. His latest, if you couldn't already tell, is a song cycle about love and sex (mostly sex). Hey, at least be grateful you know what you're getting into. Big name guests contribute hooks, while Miller raps about his chosen theme over an impressive array of beats, culminating in a beautiful eight-minute closer featuring Kendrick Lamar. Not bad.
