Anderson .Paak - Fun With Dumb - Ep. 51 

Friends hyping each other up is my type of friendship

hey its breezy lovejoy 😁🔥

I absolutely love Anderson paak and I'm 59 years old. I think his music is eternal.

2 years later and him and Bruno have the hotest album of 2021. Congrats! Love going thru old videos seeing who he is. I never heard of him until Silk Sonic.

I Love how Dumbfounded believed in upcoming artists like Anderson and supported him when he wasn't getting any looks. Dumbfounded is no ordinary artist, he's a Leader 🙏🙏

DFD does so much for hip hop lowkey. Blowing up artists like .Paak, even helped 88rising get their start

Funny how he says his goal is to get a chart song on the radio, fast forward two years and him and Bruno Mars are killing it!!

Feels like a throwback seeing Dumbfoundead and Breezy Lovejoy together again. Dope👍

Whos back here after the Superbowl!!! Both these guys arose from the ashes!!!! I was so proud see Paak with Dre, Em, Snoop, Lamar n 50 on that stage!!!

He's had an amazing journey. I found Anderson through Dumbfoundead and Wax. Listened to him as Breezy Lovejoy and seeing him evolve into what he is today has been amazing.

I died laughing at that family photo !!!

“Maybe you’ll get that one year break...” little did they know

How is someone this talented so humble

I saw them both perform with Murs at LACMA at a free concert when I was 13 or 14. After the concert you could just walk "backstage" and they were hanging out talking. My mom came there to pick my friends and me up and I pointed over to Breezy and said that was one of the performers. She asked if I had talked to him and I said no he was busy talking to other people. She proceeded to walk up to him mid-conversation and ask if her son and his friends could take a photo with him. He smiled called us all over and talked with us. I got a photo now with him, my friends and my giant brace-face smile. Now I got the best teef in the game! Seeing him perform a sunset set at Coachella this year was a trip. Big ups and shouts out to my mom.

I know that this interview is a bit old but it’s still a great interview. I never knew that Paak was struggling that much before he got the spotlight. It made me respect him even more.

Yes lawd!!! Now he has 2 radio hits for Silk Sonic and grammys. Anderson .Paak has come a long way.

I think this is the first time Anderson's ever publically shown his wife....fitting to do it on the show of one of his band of brothers.

I love that whole west coast collective of Dumb, Wax, Watsky and Breezy 🔥

Andy: I love you bro🥰 Dumb: First of all- ☺️ Andy: I said I love you bro 🥺😠 Dumb: I love you too 💕😅 Andy: alright, Jesus 🙄😁 That shows Anderson Paak don't play. If you don't say ily back he gon be mad (or maybe even start to cry 😭🤣)😂🥰

"IT'S TOO COMPLICATED MAN!" lol this foo was def ahead of his time, glad the times caught up, dope episode

Crazy to look back when Anderson Paak appeared in Dumbfounded's The hot box series and to see this podcast and see how they're great friends is amazing.

I'm here from silk sonic. I'm not worthy like Anderson .paak is amazing on his own. I'm enjoying getting to know his story and his music.

Love that he’s a family man.

"Got one shoe on and not the slightest clue where my cellphone is"

bruno mars brought me to silk sonic, to anderson .paak.. he looks soo humble and genuine.. i like his songs!!! he deserves all the blessings!!!

I feel like im back in 2011 watching Knocksteady. Paak is solid.

Discovering Anderson Paak through Silk Sonic. Good Shit!

YES LAWD!! Just dropped everything to watch this vid. I'm such a fan of Anderson Paak and Dumbfoundead. Love that you guys are close friends and I'm excited to hear your stories. Love the podcast and appreciate these interviews you've been doing.

I just want another Anderson .Paak, Dumbfounded and Wax song again or whole album

I remember when I went to a Watsky concert in 2014 and Anderson opened for him, and he had this tom drum in front of him he was playing the whole time and it ended up falling apart on the last song and he managed to keep playing while it was falling. That’s when I knew this man would be a legend.

loooool A. Paaks wife wildin on that Korean coffee hype

Man I remember listening to him as Breezy Lovejoy through DFD and Wax's stuff, then one day my friend just so happened to listen to him live and was like "dude have you heard of Anderson Paak?" I was like, "uh nooo lemme hear something." He played some songs off Venice, and I was like "huh, he sounds like Breezy Lovejoy." My homie said, "who?" Had to look it up on my phone and was so happy that he got to see him live, his music is AMAZING

Dawg part of an Emmy winning ensemble now!! Such a dope come up!

Paak and the Free Nationals put on one of the best shows I've seen to date. Crazy energy and so talented.

I come back to this episode every once in awhile to revel at how far Andy has come since I discovered the Malibu album and was having it on repeat :')

Anderson needs a bio pic ASAP! Truly inspirational and to think Dumbfounded helped him to be who he is now.

It fucking blows my mind how now he makes bangers with Dre and Eminem.

I fucking love anderson paak

This interview is gold.

44:50 thanks for reminding me Anderson Paak, as a producer and artist in my early 20s, its easy to get caught up in networking instead of working on my craft, you are truly a master at your craft and the proof is in the pudding, thanks for the advice I really needed that :)

Nah, Anderson gets radio play. WBLS (107.5) NY. Real radio plays real music. Love Anderson .Paak! Keep bringing that heat!!!!

Anderson’s talented and hilarious af. So dope to hear him and DFD and their early beginnings

I remember being glad when this dropped cuz they linked up again and it put me onto their show; now it blows my mind even more cuz Paak and Bruno got a project together - still waiting on the Dumb and Paak tracks

Ayeee Nepalese fan here!!🇳🇵🇳🇵x 🇬🇧🇬🇧 Was not expecting the random shoutout, but yesh we love u guyss & that Ldn show yrs agoo was litttt!

Awesome that Dumbfounded helped Anderson grind to get to where he is now. Anderson's music is amazing! Awesome episode. Look forward to the next one.

fun fact: DFD had one of the best vlogs on youtube fr no cap he posted em once a week, and same goes for his skits and series as well watching his vids back then gave me some sorta creative pull, if that makes sense

So dope that you guys are still boys.

Dude im so happy these guys are still friends 😭

two of my fav artists with some Korean backgrounds

Glad to see they're still friends. I would've never known about Breezy Lovejoy had it not been for DFD. Much love to them all

Absolutely one of the best and most real interviews ever! I appreciate both of you 👏🏼🔥💪🏼👍🏼✊🏼.

You two and Wax were this 44 year old Chicano's Golden Era renaissance. This is where hip-hop lives. I was there from the start.

DUMBFOUNDEAD X ANDERSON PAAK! WE NEED THIS!!!

I'm here today because of Silk Sonic new release this week. Getting to know Anderson and loving everything I'm seeing and hearing

Breezy Love Joy days to selling out shows at the Forum. YES LAWD!

I met him at the something in the water music fest in VA beach. Chill dude. His set was craaaazy. this dude was playing the drums while singing, had a dance routine, had the 3 black girls as backup & everything. Like most people came for Pharrell/NERD but i was in the crowd & heard people asking who he was & were being put on. Like the security guard didnt know who him but was jammin lol

Cool to hear self reflection of accounts from both parties regarding the past.

So proud of our boy BREEZY LOVEJOY!

he finally got his year break hahaha

My favorite episode!!!!! Been following youtube for over 10 years...i love seeing the OG youtubers from back in the day and watching how they all have grown in their careers and lives.

That breezy Love Joy freestyle over the biggie instrumental for knocksteady. Legendary. Big grin seeing you two are still homies

Shoutout Wax and Watsky 🙌🏻

Met Anderson .Paak when he opened for Watsky in 2014, a year later he was on Compton and started blowing up. So proud of him and excited to still be a fan 🖤

Gotta appreciate the history these two have together.

I discovered Paak around 2010 and followed Dumbfounded since the same years lookin battle rap. Listening and enjoying this infinite love dropping knowledge and mutual real friendship hype for growth is just .... Real LOVE. Blessings for you both !!!!!

But can I get that raver shirt? True story though. When Paak first was giving his music out, he gave his demo out for the song Drugs out to 50 industry people, and I still have the email from that demo link.... always knew he was gonna be big!! Much love ❤❤❤❤

I like the fact that Dumb, has a vacuum and cleaning products on side in the pod. LOL I love Anderson Paak and Fun with Dumb. I like how he introduces singers point of view and how they become and with the issues in society. Keep up the work Bro.

Halfway through and it's instantly one of my favorites!
