Oxnard – Anderson .Paak (2xLP)

Born in Oxnard, California, Anderson .Paak made a name for himself in the Los Angeles music scene as a drummer and producer, vocalist and singer / songwriter. In the beginning he produced under the pseudonym »Breezy Lovejoy« - unfortunately it was not a success. It wasn't long before Dr. Dre took him under his wing and signed him to his label. He received six guest appearances on Dre's gold-winning album »Compton« and soon released his second album »Malibu«, accompanied by a tour with Bruno Mars.

With his pre-released singles "Bubblin" and "Tints" ft. Kendrick Lamar and the announced features of Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, Pusha T, J. Cole and Chicago Kid, the Grammy-nominated musician, producer and multi-instrumentalist already provides a foretaste of what to expect from the new album: He proves his ability again, a successful symbiosis of soul To produce hip hop, jazz, electronic funk and R&B. With a soulful core that goes back to some of the most legendary voices of the 70s, while at the same time embodying a raw uniqueness of the here and now, the singer and rapper carries on his unique sound, which is indestructible, irresistible and incredibly good at the same time.

Rolling Stone put it briefly: "If he continues like this, Anderson .Paak will be the new Kendrick Lamar."
