The album process was grueling but I wanted it to be like that. And the album needed those speckles of light. I had a certain way of life during the beginning, but at a certain point I finally opened the door and let natural light in, and I started working in the day. It’s just that the whole album was made in this closed off environment with the doors shut. Sonically, it’s pretty much a complete 360 from Blue Slide Park. Jimmy almost cried like four times.ĭuring the listening you also said that Tyler, the Creator told you that the album was too dark. I just clicked to a random part and started watching it, and it worked perfectly.

The movie is called Turtle: The Incredible Journey. When Jay Electronica was rapping there was chaos everywhere. And then I started rapping after that the sunlight was coming up. How crazy is it that the scenes from the movie switch when the songs switch? When Loaded Lux was dissing me, the waves were crashing. Nope, it was scary how perfect it synced up. But me and and my boy Jimmy finally decided to watch it and it just synced up perfectly.
Originally, I was just going to chop up a bunch of different movie parts. The day before the listening session in New York I was still looking for the perfect one. At the time I was searching for the perfect movie to play with the sound off with the album. Well, Clockwork (Mac’s DJ) did shrooms… and told me about this movie. We honestly didn’t know what to think at first. When you played the album at your New York listening session, you had the “Turtle” movie playing along with it (Watch it here).

Forget everything you thought you knew about Mac Miller. The formula for another trip to number one was right there in front of him, but the kid wasn’t trying to hear that either. But his goal is to expand his musical palette with this project. Did Mac lose his mind? Is he on drugs? Maybe. Even the title, Watching Movies With The Sound Off, initially left fans scratching their heads. He shied away from the radio friendly tracks and party jams that littered his debut. This project is Mac’s most experimental yet. He’s finishing up a long week of press before the release, and asks if we can conduct the interview while he gets a fresh cut to save time. On the last Friday afternoon before his album officially hits iTunes and retailers, Mac is holed up in a suite at the Gansevoort Hotel in Manhattan. In reality, though, it’s just about the music for the PA native.
