Malibu comes by way of Venice and Compton, and it is the latter that really broke out the Oxnard triple-threat (he sings, raps, and produces) formerly known as Breezy Lovejoy. Dr. Dre’s third and final album, his first since 2001 from 1999, featured Anderson .Paak on 6 tracks (“Animals” is so fire), and his contribution stood out— a huge feat considering the all-star lineup that included Eminem, Ice Cube, Kendrick Lamar, and more. There is not a dull moment in Malibu, a deeply personal album, as .Paak narrates his past and present over shifting cadences of funk, r&b, boom-bap, and trap, and his soulful, church-bred crooning and air-tight raps paint a vibrant next-wave west coast soundscape brimming with pure talent, substance, and finesse.
