Watching movies with the sound off

"This release exemplify the reverence he has for what he does and the hard work he dedicates to it. Mac Miller emphatically joins a higher tier of rap artists with Watching Movies, an effort that at once silences his detractors and rewards his faithful following".

"Mac Miller is a 21-year-old Jewish rapper from Pittsburgh whose mixtapes have rolled through the internet for the past few years, picking up tags such as "frat rap" and "stoner rap". "Snooze" might be a more appropriate prefix: here, his delivery and beats are pretty dull. More tedious still is the misogyny".

"Without the hooks or the lofty lyrics, the album seems made exclusively for Miller's fans or those who right-click indie rap mixtape links on the daily. Those audiences should find it an interesting trip, admirable artistic growth, and an attractive, entertaining step in the right direction. Others will likely be flummoxed".
