<\/div>\n

Mac Miller<\/a> and Rick Rubin<\/a> discuss the difficulties of getting personal on record, but also the potential rewards that come with that vulnerability, in a poignant clip from the next episode of Shangri-La<\/em><\/a>.<\/p>\n

The segment was filmed while Miller was working on what would become his final album, Swimming<\/em><\/a>, which was released just a month before he died<\/a> in September 2018. In the clip, Rubin compliments Miller on his turn to more \u201csong-y, personal\u201d tracks, prompting Miller to reply, \u201cIt\u2019s been an interesting journey for me to realize that the goal here is just to be as much me as possible\u2026 You make this super personal ass, stripped back song where there\u2019s no bells and whistles, and the only thing that\u2019s carrying this song is you \u2014 it\u2019s just so scary!\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThat\u2019s the best,\u201d Rubin responds with a grin. \u201cIf you think about it, your favorite records do that \u2014 the ones you like that other people make, that\u2019s the shit.\u201d<\/p>\n

Miller will appear in the third episode of Shangri-La<\/em>, which will air tonight, July 26th, on Showtime<\/a> at 9 p.m. ET\/PT. The four-part docuseries<\/a> premiered earlier this month and offers a glimpse into Rubin\u2019s world as he works and chats with an array of musicians including the Avett Brothers, Lil Yachty, SZA and Santana.<\/p>\n
