With his fifth mixtape, 2011's {|Best Day Ever|}, Pittsburgh's own {|Mac Miller|} kicked off a banner year for the rapper. Preceding an EP, an additional mixtape, and his breakthrough full-length, {|Blue Slide Park|}, {|Best Day Ever|} presented {|Miller|} before the mainstream fame, bubbling with hope and promise. Packed with party-friendly hip-hop and his lyrically dexterous rhymes, the fun and playful set featured guests {|Phonte|} (I'll Be There) and {|Wiz Khalifa|} (Keep Floatin'), as well as highlights Get Up and Oy Vey. Though his sound would turn inward within the year, {|Best Day Ever|} stands as one of {|Miller|}'s most sonically joyous and emotionally light efforts. After {|Miller|}'s death in September 2018, {|Best Day Ever|} made its first chart appearance on the Billboard 200, debuting at number 26. ~ Neil Z. Yeung Less
