Mac Miller’s Posthumous Album 'Balloonerism' to Release Alongside Animated Film

The album, created in 2013 and long speculated by fans, will debut January 17, with a global one-night screening of its companion film starting January 15.

'Balloonerism,' Mac Miller's second posthumous album, will officially release on January 17, featuring collaborations with SZA and Thundercat.
An animated short film inspired by the album, directed by Samuel Jerome Mason, will premiere in select theaters worldwide on January 15 and 16.
Tickets for the film screenings cost $5, with proceeds benefiting the Mac Miller Fund, which supports arts and community programs for underserved youth.
The album was originally recorded in 2013 and has circulated unofficially online for years; it has been described by Miller’s estate as showcasing his artistic fearlessness.
Screenings will take place in cities including New York, Pittsburgh, London, Paris, Toronto, and Melbourne, with attendees receiving limited-edition memorabilia.
