A sense of gloom and eerieness hangs over Mac Miller’s latest album Ballonerism, making it a listening experience that’s quite tough to digest and rather thought-provoking.
It’s been about 7 years since the passing of Mac Miller, and many of his fans knew that he was a prolific artist who struggled immensely in his personal life. Hearing him reflect on themes of mortality, drugs, and relationships while he’s no longer here is not easy, especially for those who grew up with his music. One of the tracks that shook my spirit is the dreamy “Mrs. Deborah Downer”.
Here he deeply meditates on the subject of impermanence and uses the metaphor of crushed pills turning into powder, referring to how we eventually become ash. The keys are glittery yet haunting while the jazz-influenced drums possess this dark, muffled tone that adds to the track’s moody nature.
