New Music: Anderson .Paak – “Automatic” Feat. Taku [LISTEN]

Screen Shot 2017-08-08 at 5.49.47 PM

It’s been about a year and a half since Anderson .Paak dropped his highly-acclaimed ‘Malibu’ album. Over that time he has released a compilation with producer Knxwledge and today he returns with his new one “Automatic.”

“Why can’t we let the past be the past, love? / For some odd reason, I can’t get passed that / My soul’s exposed for you to glance at,” raps .Paak.

The single has .Paak asking questions and addressing interpersonal relationships with conversation. In rare form, Anderson takes a backseat and let’s Taku handle the chorus, while he takes care of the verses with layered vocals.

.Paak is currently on J. Cole’s “4 Your Eyez Only Tour” along with his band, The Free Nationals. Prior to that he was promoting ‘Malibu’ on Bruno Mars’ “24k Magic Tour.”

Listen to “Automatic” below.

rexx-life-raj-radio-video

Rexx Life Raj has quickly became one of the emerging, young artists out of the Bay Area. His music speaks to people and his mixture of singing and rapping makes him a versatile talent to be reckoned with. Personally I’m cheering for this dude and I know he’s gonna have a successful music career.

On his new single “Radio,” which he released with an accompanying video, Raj pokes fun at the pressure artists face when creating music. Freely flowing, Raj talks about not needing radio to blow up singing, “This might not make it to radio but up, up, and away we go.”

The video includes a lot of behind-the-scenes footage of him moving around from LA to the Bay. In between he links up with P-Lo, Freddie Gibbs, Mozzy, Mario, Mr. Carmack, and Russ.
