The long-awaited return of Anderson .Paak is officially here thanks to the release today of his new album Oxnard. The follow-up to his breakthrough 2016 album Malibu was mixed and produced by the legendary Dr. Dre and it’s also his first release via Aftermath Entertainment.
The features list is stacked, with appearances from Snoop Dogg, J. Cole, Q-Tip, Pusha T, Kadhja Bonet, Norelle, Cocoa Sarai, the Last Artful, Dodgr, and BJ the Chicago Kid.
Stream it below.
Speaking about the album in a press release, Anderson stated:
This is my most ambitious album. Working with a lead producer like Dr. Dre, I feel like he along with the team we assembled brought the best out of me. We had fun tackling every mood and genre. We learned so much since Malibu. We’ve seen the world twice and now it’s time to bring it back home. Same man, new car!
Anderson is throwing a now sold out, old-school carnival in Oxnard, CA Saturday, November 17th to celebrate the album release. It will feature games, food, and rides and of course a live performance, a Q&A with a very special guest and screening of a mini-doc about the album.
