This is going to be an adventure.” I had a little bit of fear about it, but I didn’t have a choice, I just knew it had to happen, especially after talking to you and your mom. MASON: I remember feeling this immediate sense of gravity after getting that first email. I muted the video and played “Colors and Shapes” over it, just to see how it looked, and it synced together so oddly well. Then I saw the video, Little Things, that you did with Mario Hugo. She was like, “I really like that song,” and it just felt like the right place to start. MASON: Was “Colors and Shapes” her favorite song? MCCORMICK: So actually, my mom and I were on the phone, starting to think about a music video. How the hell did you find me? I still don’t really understand. I remember, I had just finished some projects, and I was about to go on vacation, and then… I’m looking at my calendar right now, trying to figure it out. MCCORMICK: Yeah, I can’t believe it’s been so long. Last night, Miller, we released this thing that we’ve been working on together for what, six months? MILLER MCCORMICK: I feel like I’m going to throw up right now. SAM MASON: What’s up, Miller? How you doing? Late last month, the mixtape was made available on Spotify and Apple music, along with the music video for “Colors and Shapes.” Here, McCormick and Mason jump on the phone to reflect on the process -at times painful, at other times exciting - of honoring Mac’s memory. The connection between McCormick and Mason proved so fruitful that McCormick tapped Mason to orchestrate a suite of visualizers, in collaboration with an array of visual artists, to accompany the rest of the tracks on Faces. The video, which takes Mac’s childhood drawings, family photos, and even his beloved dog Ralph as its inspirational starting point, effortlessly channels the rapper’s youthful spirit. Together, the pair created a music video for “Colors and Shapes,” - Karen’s favorite song from Faces - to accompany the release.

“It’s this combination of looking forward and backward at once,” McCormick says of the first time he saw Mason’s short film, Little Things, “I don’t know… it made things feel okay, at a time when things really didn’t feel okay.” It wasn’t long before McCormick brought Mason inside the close-knit family of artists and musicians who had orbited Mac in life, and remained close after his passing. The answer came in the form of Sam Mason, a filmmaker whose work simultaneously evokes childhood wonderment and achy nostalgia. “Malcolm was like this atom bomb of pure light and energy,” McCormick recalls on a recent afternoon, “How do you even begin to encapsulate that?” But despite the intimate nature of the project, Mac’s family fretted over how best to honor the moment. The record, which Mac produced along with his cohort of friends including Thundercat and 9th Wonder, features the likes of ScHoolboy Q, Earl Sweatshirt, Vince Staples, and Da$h. In the spring of 2020, McCormick and his mother decided to bring the last of Mac’s mixtapes, 2014’s Faces, to streaming services. When Mac passed away in the fall of 2018, he left behind 13 mix tapes, many of them self-recorded, which trickled onto streaming services slowly over the course of his 11 year career. McCormick, the brother of the late rapper Mac Miller, is the artist behind the cover art for the majority of his brother’s records, from 2010’s Blue Slide Park, to 2016’s The Divine Feminine.

Reminisce about the good ol’ days with “Colors and Shapes” and see the full track list for Faces below.Though Miller McCormick keeps a low profile online, his designs - colorful abstractions, both intimate and optimistic - are likely familiar to most contemporary rap fans. Circles, Mac Miller’s posthumous final album, was released in January 2020, completed by producer and collaborator Jon Brion. Ralph features on the project, alongside Schoolboy Q, Earl Sweatshirt, Ab-Soul, Thundercat, Rick Ross, Mike Jones, Vince Staples, Dash, and Sir Michael Rocks. The video also features Miller’s pet dog, King Ralph of Malibu. The video brings to life “bits and pieces” from Miller’s childhood, per Mason, “scenes from the town where he grew up, objects, toys from his room-little pieces of his life that I extrapolated outwards and used to inspire the story.” A brand-new music video for the track “Colors and Shapes” is out now, directed by Sam Mason. The cult favorite, his 11th tape, arrived between albums Watching Movies With the Sound Off and GO:OD AM.
