Anderson Paak "Ventura'' Discussion Thread

[Motife43]

On its own, not comparing it to ANYTHING else I've heard from him over the past 7 yrs I like this album. I will be at the Best Teef in the Game tour next month.

 

[Mr Hate Coffee]

Album is smooth af

Ironically I never got around to listening to Oxnard.

Honestly I have this on Malibu's level but I don't know if it exceeds it. Either way I'm eating and satisfied. Even though I find Oxnard to be a notch or two below, I still like it. I didn't find out until recently that Sweet Chick and Left To Right (last two tracks on that album) are bonus tracks, I feel like less is more with that situation.

Still enjoying tho, might pick up a copy in stores if I see one while I'm there today.

Somehow the Alchemist song isn't great on this. And the Nate Dogg song is buns.

SHIITS IS EXCELLENT SO FAR

DUNO IF ITS MALIBU OR YES LAWD STATUS, BUT ITS DEFINITELY A STEP UP FROM OXNARD

As I originally mentioned dre eas just as involved in this and they had all been in studio up 2 a few weeks back , puttin finishin touches on this

NO ONE SAID DRE WASNT INVOLVED

BUT APPARENTLY, OXNARD IS THE ALBUM DRE WANTED TO PUT OUT N VENTURA WAS PAAK’S CHOICE

 

[El Jefe]

yeaaah peeps said just coz dre's name was on it doesnt mean he was involved


paak said on kimmel months baaaaak

him and dre recorded 2 albums worth of material and we may see more material sooner rathr then later

he even said it would be more soulful bak then , this was the plan the whole way around and dre and the team were involved the whole way through , they didnt record 2 seperate sets of material they recorded it all at the same time , they just used different selection of songs fo each project

what does picking of the songs have 2 do with the quality of the material which was recorded throughout the sessions which dre was involved in ?

I can’t be the only one who wishes Good Heels was longer.

 

[Sad Bunny]

DRE PICKED A LESSER ALBUM .. SORTA WENT WIT THE “CATCHY RAP STAR” SONGS, WHILE PAAK WANTED A MORE SOULFUL VIBE.

AND IM THE BIGGEST DRE FAN HERE, SO DONT GET IT TWISTED.

Its 2019....get free Spotify

You can lead a horse to water but... You know the rest

 

[Guvnor]

Was Dre involved in this at all?

This shyt is way better then Oxnard! This is what Oxnard should have been and it's too bad this didn't get the push it should have got.

Also Andre 3000 is still a lyrical beast after all these years We need that album.
