    This album is great. Just got through my first listen. Anderson's voice is just so unique/different from anyone else out right now. His writing is tremendous too.

    Ya mom's in prison, ya father need a new kidney, ya families splittin', rivalries between siblings, if cash ain't king, it's d--- sure the incentive

    The West Coast continues to be a breeding ground for talent. Though decorated with household names like Snoop Dogg, Eminem, Ice Cube and Kendrick Lamar, Dr. Dre showed California so much love with his comeback album Compton, a companion to the blockbuster N.W.A film Straight Outta Compton. Poke around the credits of Dre's set, though, and a flurry of rising acts joined the bill, including Oxnard, Calif. native, Anderson .Paak.

    After rolling out his 2014 debut Veniceand teaming with production duo Blended Babies earlier this year for The Anderson .Paak EP, the soulful singer-songwriter is dropping his second full-length effort called Malibu via OBE, Steel Wool Entertainment and ArtClub International. The forthcoming LP -- whose wavy artwork can be seen below -- hosts .Paak's latest two singles, "The Season/ Carry Me" and the 9th Wonder-produced "Am I Wrong" featuring ScHoolboy Q.

    Album Art: Dewey Saunders / Creative Direction: Corey Gomberg

    For the uninitiated, .Paak was raised a Southern Baptist in L.A. who spent his early underground career as Breezy Lovejoy, rolling out independent projects like 2010's Violets Are Blue. His experimental sound genre-hops from hip-hop to rock to R&B and shows a knack for storytelling (see: the dark b-----r "Milk N' Honey," the funky jam "Luh You" and the smooth love note to Venice "The City").

    Malibu will feature other collaborations with The Game, Talib Kweli, BJ The Chicago Kid, and Rapsody, as well as production from 9th Wonder, Callum Connor, DJ Khalil, Madlib, Kaytranada, Pomo, Hi-Tek, Chris Dave, Robert Glasper and Dem Jointz. .Paak's new album will land on Jan. 15.

    Tracklist:
    1. The Bird
    2. Heart Don't Stand a Chance
    3. The Waters (feat. BJ the Chicago Kid)

    Also good for Dre for jump starting yet another career.

    Dre might have the most significant impact on rap of all time.

    Listened to it once today, want to give it a few more spins. I like it though, I liked him a lot on Compton but never checked his solo stuff other than this which I really enjoy:



    So far from my first listen, Heart Don't Stand A Chance and Am I Wrong are my favorite tracks.

    I need this in my life. Thought it leaked due to the P4K review. Happy they're pushing him like this though.

    Just listened to the album yesterday and goodness. This album is incredible. Great vibes all around. Makes me want to dance, multiple songs from it that I have on repeat. Guest features all brought some cool additions to the project, didn't think much was going to come from Paak and BJ the Chicago Kid on the same track but I was blown away by The Waters.

    Dude is a unique talent and I am loving what he is bringing to R&B.

    Animals was my favorite track from Dre's album so I downloaded this album. It is really great. Some refreshing RnB talent right here! This guy will be big time
