Anderson .Paak: Ventura Vinyl LP Hot on Sale

Dre let me have a lot of leeway on Ventura. He was like, It seems like you got it. Anderson .Paak s musical tour around Los Angeles continues with Ventura, the singer s 4th studio album. Recorded around the same time as Oxnard, .Paak describes this one as the prettier of the two. Easy going & based on his signature vintage soul r&b chops, the 11-tracker is punctuated by meaningful guest appearances from Smokey Robinson, Andre 3000, Nate Dogg, and more. .Paak sounds comfortable, his effortless falsetto gliding over warm chords & rhythmic flare, and his penchant for nostalgia is the perfect canvas for capturing the feeling the titular coastal city (where .Paak says he founds his depth ) conjures. Check out Come Home, Make It Better, King James, Jet Black, and Reachin 2 Much.
