What We Learned: Mac Miller’s ‘Ask Me Anything’ Session On Reddit

Mac Miller is currently out on tour with Chance the Rapper, Vince Staples and The Internet in support of his new album Watching Movies With The Sound Off, his most mature work to date. But that doesn't mean he's lost the joking nature of his youth; Mac stopped by Reddit today to participate in an 'Ask Me Anything' (AMA) session, where he shifted back and forth between serious answers, ridiculous responses, and some that could have gone either way. XXL tuned in and pulled out fifteen things we learned during Mac's visit to the site, including his thoughts on birds, his favorite place to perform, and some exciting upcoming collaborations he has on the way. As always with Mac, take most answers with a grain of salt—but if even half these answers are true, it makes for one great story anyway. Check it out.
