About this song
- Returning to rap after a two year hiatus, Mac Miller delivers "Buttons", a track discussing everything from his daily routine to pretending that life is alright amidst external and internal crisis. It is one of three tracks to be released following his 2016 album “The Divine Feminine”. The idea of Mac’s world going crazy references the turbulent month he endured prior to the release of a trio of new songs, including a highly publicized break up with Ariana Grande and a DUI related car crash. The song is produced by “Parson Brown”. Parson Brown is not a real person (although he could’ve been a Parson who never rose to fame at some point) and the term “Parson Brown” is more of a figure of speech like “John Doe” or “Jane Roe”. Mac has stated before that he enjoys the thought of not having an identity. . User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply. — lastfm
