So is it a wrap for Anderson Paak?

[315]

Personally I still listen to Yes Lawd and Malibu regularly. I follow him on twitter and he stays touring. Seems like he's doing pretty good

 

[SirBiatch]

U used at least throw some arguments for your different perspective...

Put the poll up see if we still fukk with paak

a) I wasn't arguing anything here. Just asking a question

and b) The Booth is beyond lazy. I used to put up arguments until I realized most of these dudes are mentally ill and borderline illiterate. What's the point?

Cant wait to neg yall in 6 months when he disappear into the abyss.

New R&B singer type artists dont get the same break rappers do.

Now that the uniqueness of his voice wore off its gonna be hard for ole boy to resurface.

You crazy, it didn't wear off and no one else is singing like him.

I actually did not hop on the hype train because I heard him for the first time on the XXL Freestyle and that was just bad.

So by coincidence because my boy asked several times 'did you check out Anderson Paak yet', I listened to Malibu for the first time today (I can prove this, it's a pure coincidence OP made a thread today).

First impression:
wow, he must REALLY like Bilal (remember him?)

Some songs, beats, background vocals are almost a copy of Bilal's style, at least he's heavily inspired, also by the Neptunes.

But then I heard 'The Season/Carry Me' and I was like... 'ok wow this is dope!'. Had that on repeat a few times.

Listened to more, my conclusion is: talented artist with strong producers/musicians around him, heavily inspired by some great artists and groups maybe even a little too much. Has content. Doesn't just rap about nonsense. Not a huge fan of all the 'off beat' production stuff, but overall I think he's got a lot of potential and creativity to give.

Because OP was counting on him to fail but it didn't happen so he's inventing a falloff

Dude is a trash poster foreal.

He always trying to spin something. Ever since he said in a Facebook note that illmatic by Nas was wack I couldn't take him serious. He only knew who mobb deep was after seeing 8mile.

He's a buffoon.

People made this thread about Frank Ocean for like 5 years
