#4 | Anderson .Paak | Ventura
Aftermath/12 Tone

According to Patrick Corcoran: “At the risk of being overly hyperbolic, there is something of the great Muhammed Ali about Paak’s music here. He floats like a butterfly over the rolling grooves but stings like a bee when the opportunity presents itself….Joy and happiness permeate throughout the album, even when addressing things that are less than joyful and that is due to the fact that Paak is back on solid soul ground. His truth shines through the prism of his true musical self-expression, creating something that sounds more natural.”
