    All in all, The Divine Feminine is an experiment well done. Mac Miller’s creative mind explores the ins and outs of the modern relationship while maintaining a certain level of sophistication that can be considered timeless.

    At all times, Miller and his associates are on the same page. Another aspect that makes this the rapper's most fulfilling album is that all the lines about being saved and in awe seem to be expressed with as much ease as the anatomical references, like they're plain facts, not wrenching confessions.

    It’s easily his most intoxicating release yet, an odyssey of soulful compositions paring down his expansive and eclectic soundboard from the last few years into something distinctly cozy and pleasant.

    Mac Miller isn’t a good rapper, and he definitely can’t carry a note, though he tries to do that a lot on this one. However, he has a vision of what he wanted this album to sound like and then carried it through with all the right producers and features, which is a talent in and of itself.

    The Divine Feminine is well-intentioned and well-staffed, but ultimately lacks the sort of specificity in vision that would do its subject matter justice. [Nov 2016, p.61]

    Miller's grown-ass beats clash with his juvenile boasts, so he often ends up sounding like a well-meaning kid who can't stop putting his kicks up on the fancy furniture.

    The album could offer some really tender moments, but because they’re buried under lyrics that talk about nothing but sex, they’re lost. Instead, The Divine Feminine leaves a sour taste behind and entirely misses an opportunity to truly honor the female gender.

It's a chill tone and will be brought into my normal listen cycle. Some of these songs sound kind of messy and other songs are underwhelming. I just wanted the album to be better. But overall it has some classic 10/10 tracks (We & Dang!). Overall enjoyable." x2 Expand

    el mejor álbum de Mac Miller. De principio a fin demuestra una madurez musical, donde un chico blanco muestra lo qie puede hacer en r&b y funk.

It comes with a Comtemporany R&B and some Alternative Rap experimenting and exploring Funky music. It's just too fun and very apreciatible the way Mac Miller and others rappers have been taking after Kendrick Lamar's To Pimp a Butterfly flow. Just in love with it. Expand

He dropped a bunch of cool projects with a rising level of evolution on each one of them, not only as a rapper ("Macadelic", "Watching Movies With The Sound Off", "Faces" and "GO:OD AM" are my favorites), but when he puts his creativity on the table, it's speaks way louder than simply words.

The album is clearly love-inspired and carries that tune beautifully throughout. The awkward but cute flirty tone Mac presents is cool without being disgustingly corny and makes for some heartfelt and interesting lyrics. Dang!, Cinderella, and Stay are some of Mac's highest peaks. If it weren't for a couple forgettable and less ambitious songs, this album would be the perfect modern love album. Expand

This is a rejuvenated Mac Miller who is trying to change his lyrics and style of music. Unfortunately, I like the old Mac and found this album to be very boring. I miss the Mac where he would talk about ice cream and yogurt. Expand
