“Balloonerism” was shelved around 2014 in favor of the album “Watching Movies With the Sound Off” and the mixtape “Faces.” To my ear, it's closer to “Faces” but rawer and less intense. Even so, just having Miller back in our ears is a reason to celebrate.

Mac Miller's estate has released his posthumous album 'Balloonerism' in tandem with an accompanying short film.
