Got excited wondering why this was bumped. Hope he brings out a new album soon.
Not seen him live yet but it's on my list.

Yes. He is insane live. I caught him doing a set at a festival in D.C..Any of you seen him perform live?
Went to his show yesterday, the dude is amazing.
I think it definitely sounds different to Malibu, less live instrumentation and definitely more Dre influenced. More rap focused. I don't think I like it as much, last 2 tracks are an awful way to close it. Rest of it is good.Is on iTunes and Spotify .... and YouTube
If I’m being nitpicky, I’m kinda disappointed that it’s so similar to Malibu and the NxWorries stuff. Which is odd, cos I really like all that stuff (and I still like this) but I always want artists I like to progress a bit with each record.... not too much!... But a bit.
I’m loving the blaxploitation vibe on The Chase though. I’m always a sucker for that kind of instrumentation.
I have done. And it's part of why I've formed that (admittedly quite nitpicky) opinion. He's a great warm up act (I saw him on the same bill as NERD and Gambino - and he was way better than NERD) and he has a great mid-set party piece as the Hip Hop Dave Grohl, but what he's missing is that one two three hit of really big BIG bangers to round his set off...If you get the chance to see him live, you have to. One of the best live performers out there atm.
Despite the slight NERD diss (they’re my favourite band ever) this is a great point.I have done. And it's part of why I've formed that (admittedly quite nitpicky) opinion.

The only reason Gambino is a much bigger musical draw than him, despite having reasonably no more or less good full albums as him, is that Anderson can’t start, hold and end a set with bangers like Me & Your Mama, Redbone & This is America ... he could, and it’s maybe even fair to say his general output is better. But he doesn’t have anything that peaks as high... that’s what disappoints me about this album.
But I am admittedly being a nitpicky bitch, tbf.
I suppose Come Down would be the closest to a recognisable .Paak banger?Despite the slight NERD diss (they’re my favourite band ever) this is a great point.
Any time someone asks me what Anderson Paak song they should listen to, I struggle to either remember names of tracks or pick out an individual stand out track - so I just say ‘listen to the Malibu album!’ And I know they won’t.
It’s tricky, does he really have bangers?I suppose Come Down would be the closest to a recognisable .Paak banger?
* I did mean live, tbf, not in general. Or at least on that day at any rate. Hit wise NERD are objectively better than both at present. But Pharrel just kinda walked around the stage lazily, whereas .Paak and Gambino were both really good showmen.
9th Wonder produced The season? Sounds more like Knxledge to me, it would surprise me, maybe he did Carry Me only?"The Season/Carry Me" left off on Malibu. Is it a coincidence that 9th Wonder holds the producer credits for both songs?
That's what I thought at first. 9th and Knxledge are cut from the same cloth though.9th Wonder produced The season? Sounds more like Knxledge to me, it would surprise me, maybe he did Carry Me only?

I've found you sometimes have to actually search for the album and artist for some new albums. They are there, just not obviously. Which is annoying.Doesn't seem to be on Google Play Music, is there some kind of bloody Apple exclusive for a while or something?
I did find it eventually, cheers minionI've found you sometimes have to actually search for the album and artist for some new albums. They are there, just not obviously. Which is annoying.
