    "articleBody": "Ten years after its first release, Mac Miller’s The Divine Feminine is a top-10 album again in the United States. The 10th-anniversary edition, released on October 2, 2026, carried the record from No. 159 to No. 10 on the main US albums chart dated October 17, with 32,000 album-equivalent units in the tracking week that closed on October 8. On the same date it is listed at No. 1 on the Top Rap Albums chart, the genre ranking that sits underneath the broader R&B/hip hop albums list. The surge came from three songs that had never been out before. “Grand,” “Channel 13” and “Butterflies” now close a 13-track running order, and all three trace back to the original sessions. Credits list Miller, Vic Wainstein and Taylor Graves on “Grand,” Channel Tres as producer of “Channel 13” with extra production by Miller and Big Jerm, and Graves on “Butterflies,” which has Thundercat playing bass. Buyers, not just streamers What makes this chart week interesting is how the units were earned. Of the 32,000 total, 18,000 were straight album sales and 14,000 came from streaming. That means purchases made up about 56% of the week (18,000 divided by 32,000), far above the near-zero sales share of the album sitting at No. 2. The estate sold the reissue digitally and as a three-record vinyl set, with the bonus songs pressed on Side E and an etching on Side F, plus a restock of a deluxe pressing that had sold out. Set that against the original launch. In September 2016 the album opened at No. 2 with 48,000 units, 32,000 of them sales, and it reached No. 1 on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart. The anniversary week therefore delivered two-thirds of the debut’s total (32,000 against 48,000) and a little over half of its sales (18,000 against 32,000), for a catalog title already certified platinum in the US. Pre-release projections had pointed to roughly 35,000 units and a No. 8 finish; the real week landed slightly below that. The album is not the only expanded edition moving the needle. On the same chart, Drake’s Habibti climbed back to No. 2 after its four-song FOMO expansion, and Habibti also took No. 1 on the overall R&B/hip hop albums chart and the R&B albums chart dated October 17. Drake’s units were almost entirely streams; Miller’s leaned on physical and digital purchases. Outside the US, the reissue has reached No. 2 on the UK’s R&B albums chart, No. 22 in Scotland and No. 18 in the Netherlands. The “Butterflies” video The estate’s official upload of “Butterflies” went live on Mac Miller’s YouTube channel on October 1, the night before the reissue. It runs a little over three minutes and is an animated visual rather than a performance clip: illustrations by Grace Miceli, animated by Seongjin Yoon, in a hand-drawn style of butterflies, hearts, swans, a playing card and a traffic light scattered across a white page, with the song title lettered in the center. The choice suits the material. “Butterflies” is a short, bass-led love song, and Miceli’s doodle-book drawings match its lightness without pretending to be new footage of an artist who died in September 2018. That restraint is the strongest thing about the clip. It does not stitch together archival shots or invent a narrative Miller never signed off on. The weakness is that it gives casual viewers little to hold on to. There is no sense of the studio, no Thundercat on screen, and no hint of how the song fits the 2016 sessions. Viewers who want the album in motion are pointed elsewhere: the description links to The Divine Feminine Live, a concert special directed by Sam Balaban and built from the television performance Miller filmed in 2016, which first aired on September 30 of that year with Ariana Grande and CeeLo Green as guests. Pairing the two is sensible. The animation handles the new song, and the concert film carries the weight of the original record. The release also continues a careful posthumous pattern. Circles arrived in 2020, Thundercat issued “She Knows Too Much” in February 2026 after seeking the estate’s permission, and the estate launched a new interactive archive website alongside the anniversary announcement in August. The next test is retention. The chart dated October 24 counts sales and streams from October 9 to October 15, the reissue’s second full week, and will show whether the vinyl buyers were a one-week spike or the start of a longer run.
