Mac Miller's family has released the deluxe edition of the late rapper's posthumous album Circles.
The project, which features two new tracks, "Right" and "Floating," arrived on Thursday (March 19), a day before it's scheduled release.
As fans know, the original edition of Circles dropped earlier this year. The 12-track project marked Mac's first posthumous album since his death in September 2018.
In January, the 26-year-old rapper's family revealed that Circles was the sister project to Mac's final LP, Swimming. "At the time of his passing, Malcolm was well into the process of recording his companion album to Swimming, entitled Circles. Two different styles complementing each other, completing a circle—Swimming in Circles was the concept," they said in a statement.
Mac's family went on to explain that he had been working on Circles with singer-songwriter and producer Jon Brion prior to his death. "After hearing some early versions of songs, [Jon] cleared his calendar to help Malcolm fine-tune them," Mac's family shared. "After his passing, Jon dedicated himself to finishing Circles based on his time and conversations with Malcolm. We are eternally grateful to Jon and to those who gave their best to the difficult and emotional task of putting out this body of work."
The deluxe edition of Circles will be available in vinyl on April 17.
