'faces' is one of the greatest mixtapes of all time too 🥱

mac miller first dropped 'faces' while he was independent and between albums, and the project became a fan favorite both before and after its true streaming release

my favorite story about the project though is how the beat for "diablo" was inspired by "in a sentimental mood" by duke ellington and john coltrane

you can hear it right away once you hear the original song, and when it came time to release the project again in 2021 they cleared the composition – just not the master recording

@idlabsmusic shared that they feel like they got really close to the original (which i agree), but what was your favorite story of the 'faces' era?
