Miller’s not really accustomed to life in the paparazzi limelight, but like everything else these days, he is taking it as it comes - and that includes Donald Trump. The Divine Feminine, as the name suggests, is a celebration of women (not in a thirsty way), but more than anything, it’s an “exploration of love.” On the opener “Congratulations,” Miller admits to being “the jealous type.” On “Stay,” his gritty voice urges his girl not to leave, while the funky “Soulmate” contemplates finding “the one.” The smooth love note “My Favorite Part” should prompt plenty of gossip-site speculation, thanks to the renewed attention on Miller and past collaborator Grande as a couple.
Though refreshingly candid about his issues, Miller has re-emerged with a new confidence in the past year or so. Early on, the “Donald Trump” rapper took his critical lumps dealt with the challenges and scrutiny of being a white rapper with a growing national profile and struggled with insecurities, depression and a well-chronicled drug addiction that threatened to not only sabotage his career, but had people worried for his life. No doubt Miller’s six-year rise since signing with Pittsburgh’s Rostrum Records in 2011 hasn’t been without its hurdles.

But The Divine Feminine is, in Miller’s words, the result of the artist telling his fears and insecurities to “get the f- outta here.” Singing more, working with analog instruments and giving in to R&B impulses are all things Miller has long toyed with in his head. Traces have worked their way texturally into past releases, including 2015’s ode to finding sobriety GO:OD AM, which came out almost exactly a year ago.
