Mac Miller (R.I.P.) still has music coming out, which is great for fans but sometimes projects like these leave questions about posthumous releases. Some artists have left statements asking for unreleased music to not be shared publicly for various reasons. However, fortunately in this instance, this wasn't the case.
Here's an official statement about the curation of the project:
"...Balloonerism—the second album from the beloved musician since his death in 2018, released two days ahead of what would have been his 33rd birthday—is far from an assemblage of cutting-room floor scraps. Culled from a single week of extended jam sessions (according to close collaborators), the album is considered to be Mac Miller’s “lost project,” recorded between his 2013 album Watching Movies with the Sound Off and his 2014 mixtape Faces—arguably the most pivotal year of his creative evolution."
Mac Miller’s estate adds, "It is a project that was of great importance to Malcolm, to the extent that he commissioned artwork for it.”
I've watched the video a few times and I'm bumping the album "Ballonerism" while writing this.
