Anderson .Paak Confirms Heavy Dr. Dre Role On Aftermath Debut

[Waterproof]

Since signing with Aftermath Entertainment back in January of 2016, Anderson .Paak has released a lot of music—but none of it has forecast his chemistry with label founder Dr. Dre. Heads, of course, heard a taste ahead of the contract, thanks to Dre’s 2015 Comptonalbum. The good doctor co-produced “Deep Water,” with DJ Dahi, Focus…, Cardiak, and Dem Jointz, as well as “Issues,” again alongside Focus… and Dem Jointz, as well as Neff-U. Both tracks featured then-apprentice Anderson .Paak, who was throughout the #2-charting Aftermath release.

Anderson, who has worked with a litany of other profiled producers such as 9th Wonder, Hi-Tek, and Madlib, told Australia’s Triple J Radio that the chemistry is soon coming to the public surface. “[Dr. Dre] had a heavy role in this new album that’s almost done,” said the twice Grammy-nominated NxWorries co-founder. “[We are] just going through the mixing phase. I won’t say any dates, but you can definitely expect it [in 2018], sometime.” The Oxnard, California representative added, “It’s dope to be around like legends like that, and you can feel the mutual respect. That’s what I always did it for; I wasn’t really thinking about money or fame. I just wanted the respect from the people I look up to, musically.”

I think this album is going to be majority produced by Dr. Dre and Dre produced many R&B tracks for artist and he produced a classic R&B Album

Dre ain't got the juice no more, bruh. I'm sorry, but he don't.

He still good for mixing but as far as producing?

 

[TransJenner]

I think every Aftermath artists says these and EVERY time he just has one track or none at all


I remember Kendrick hinted at Dre being all over GKMC

In a sense Dre is all over GKMC. He mixed it and altered multiple tracks, basically adding extra shyt or changing drums. I'd expect the same thing on Paak's album.

The smart way to work with Dre is to bring him a near finished project and let him tinker a bit. Paak is the next big thing for Aftermath so I expect him to get this album on point.

 

[BK The Great]

Hopefully he is producing on here, too many artists say this with no results

 

[Phantom Dreamer]

He's probably just gonna be mixing.

GOAT status engineering but I want those Dre drums and chords too.

 

[bigbadbossup2012]

[King Kai]

Aftermath artists still think they seeing a release after all these years

Bishop Lamont and Stat Quo probably on this forum reading this shyt like

 

[thewiseman]

Dr. Dre been trash for over 20 years
Not surprised the interscope plant posted this

 

[SirBiatch]

Incoming Interscope classic

 

[Shadowmayne]

Paak over that crisp Dre mixing

 

[Nobodyknows]

Need that Jon connor album out instead of this

 

[Hersh]

^^^ word does Connor have any tapes out?

 

[dubsmith_nz]

I was hoping this would be the case, even if he plays a role similar to GKMC I'd be happy with that.

Paak can do no wrong right now and has a really distinct style, it'll be interesting to see what direction the sound of the album takes.

I think he has a tape rapping over eminem beats
But honestly that Jon Connor album never coming

Eminem made phresser rap over a hook he wrote
Just so he wouldn't get writing credit
I'm pretty positive Aftermath ain't gonna be spending no money on connnor
