From the album "Malibu". Out Now! iTunes: itunes.apple.c... Spotify: open.spotify.co... Amazon: www.amazon.com/... Google Play: play.google.co... OBE / Steel Wool / Art Club / EMPIRE
I was driving from DC to Charlotte, NC. I was listening to the breakfast club interview with him on it. So I decided to give MALIBU a listen on Spotify. Would you believe me if I told you that I listened to the THE BIRD on repeat for 4 hours straight? I did not switch songs until I got to my hotel in CHARLOTTE. That's what you call good music. We need more like you PAAK. Need more like you bruh!
those guys, including Anderson .Paak, Big Baby D.R.A.M, Isaiah Rashad and more are changing the game at a speed we don't really conceive as it is happening before our eyes. Bringing back soul, funk and jazz roots to hip-hop, like a tribe called quest, the roots, d'angelo, erykah & the whole soulquarians crew did it at their time... Such a happy feeling to see this rise taking more and more amplitude
A bird with the word came to me The sweetness of a honeycomb tree And now my luck was taking over me Couldn't fake it if I wanted to I had to wake up just to make it through I got my patience and I'm making do I learned my lessons from the ancient roots I choose to follow what the greatest do A bird with the word came to me The sweetness of a honeycomb tree And now my luck was taking over me Couldn't fake it if I wanted to I had to wake up just to make it through I got my patience and I'm making do I learned my lessons from the ancient roots I choose to follow what the greatest do [Verse 1] I'm repping for the longest cycle, mm My uncles had to pay the cost, mm My sister used to sing to Whitney, mm My mama caught the gambling bug, mm We came up in a lonely castle, mm My papa was behind them bars, mm We never had to want for nothing, mm Said all we ever need is love, mm We see the same things Oh-oh-oh We sing the same songs Oh-oh-oh We feel the same grief Oh-oh-oh Bleed the same blood You grew up in the home beside me I always had a friend to call How could I make it here without you? MM I pray I leave before you're gone [Hook] A bird with a word came to me The sweetness of a honeycomb tree And now I look, what's taking over me Couldn't fake it if I wanted to I had to wake up, just to make it through I got my patience and I'm making do I learned my lessons from the ancient roots I choose to follow what the greatest do A bird with the word came to me The sweetness of a honeycomb tree And now my luck was taking over me Couldn't fake it if I wanted to I had to wake up just to make it through I got my patience and I'm making do I learned my lessons from the ancient roots I choose to follow what the greatest do [Outro] Hey, my little youth is crying I'm almost home, almost home Look no further riots, mm Working my fingers to the bone See I do the best I can, mm Mama was a farmer, mm Papa was a goner, mm
Only heard of Anderson .Paak from the track Leave The Door Open. Now clicking the like button on all his tunes I listen to. Beautiful voice and musically talented. Fantastic...
@@misspbrown2566 I'm a little confused what you're asking. There's a song by Mac Miller and Anderson Paak called "Dang". It's sooooo good. Give it a listen!
@@brandonpett1555 Found a list and selected the 2017 live version with Jon Batiste. Thanks for the heads up. your right it is "sooooo good" Have The Best day today.
I just discovered him and I'm 76 yrs young !! I play the drums like that my licks and grooves from the 60/70s to see and hear someone so young play and have so much soul it's supersonic and with Bruno Mars it's killing thank you brought music back into my heart ...peace
No matter how old or young you are, no matter where you come from and what ethnicity you are. You have to appreciate good music. Anderson .Paak always makes me happy, his music, his voice is a gift from heaven. Any time I am feeling down I always listen to Malibu. This albums speaks to everyone in a different way. With all the chaos going on in the world it is a good breath of fresh air to see this type of music is out there.
"You grew up in the home beside me I always had a friend to call How could I make it here without you? I pray I leave before you're gone" This shit hits me so hard every time, i relate so much to these lines. I had my friends during some of the hardest parts of my life, some of the best people ive ever met. Trully gratefull.
Here after reading the insane article about his childhood. This song hits even harder now than it did before. Wishing all the happiness and success possible to you AP.
There have been times in my life where this song has brought me to tears. Knowing his story and everything he went through....He put his whole life on wax on this album. Completely and honestly. Not many of us are ever that honest even with ourselves. "I do the best that I can"
I love and honor this song so much. It's actually my life theme song as we speak. It reminds me that regardless of all the odds stacked up against you, to follow the Greats and stay in the path of righteousness ANYWAY. Though I know he's referencing musical Greats, I translate it to relate to my life and circumstances to the Greats before me that were righteous, ethical, morally straight and raw/authentic. I'm so grateful for this song.
The other morning my Lyft driver put this song on, saying he picked it out just for me. I was on my way to work at 5.30am, it was snowing and dark, the song just fit the mood PERFECTLY. I had a huge smile on my face the whole ride, now I can’t stop listening to this song. THANK YOU AHMED!!
+eric garcia A good musician (that's well rounded anyways) pays attention to both. It's what makes the actual music itself timeless in a way especially when you an hum along to your favorite lyrics. If lyrics aren't as important as the music itself then jazz/classical would be topping the billboards. And Frank Ocean's music is far from "boring as hell" so I don't even see how you can make that argument. Having great music plus amazing lyrics is an extra win compared to someone with great music and alright/good lyrics.
You need both food and water to survive. see what im getting at ? Both Frank and Anderson are super talented and the music world is better with both of them in it.
I felt it... "My little you just crying, I'm almost home. Look no further riots, im working my fingers to the bon. See I do the best I can. Mama was a farmer, papa was a goner"
Paak and the Free Nationals are all I Want to listen to since I discovered the groove about a month ago, via Bruno Mars...thanks for putting Paak on the map Bruno...abundantly well deserved and just waiting for that bump into the spotlight...this is a phase shift for me, everything is changed hereafter because of them, life will never be processed in the same way...it's thankfully easier to manage life and I am grateful, even if I am late to the show, I'm better for having arrived.
I’m glad I’m not the only one who makes this a go to album on a long highway drive , I’ve spent countless hours listening to Malibu from NC to NY and back again
This lad's just become my favourite artist in the last 15 minutes, and I don't have favourite artists. I adore every single one of his songs, the genius
There's still a ton of art styles unxplored from older generation. A lot of people don't even wanna explore older stuff to see what they'll find. They just wanna jump into new and their stuff don't stand out. This is fire here.
The vibe this song brings to start the album is just perfect. You can feel the trustfulness and pain from ear bar. Thanks for becoming one of my top artist .Paak.
" You grew up in the home beside me, I always had a friend to call.. How could I make it here without ya?, I pray leave before you're gone.." Wow.. first of all.. the piano on that part.. and the sentiment of those lyrics.. Realizing you can't make without someone so much you pray you die before they do...
Man I wish i could listen to this with some flowers in me at a small hometown local cafe and just watch the world pass by as this music swells my heart and makes my mind smile.
Thank you so much. Your music is very appreciated because I’ve been feeling very sensitive lately and I don’t understand why. Which is making me lose my mind. But this song has calmed me down a little more. Thank you so much. I send my love and gratitude to you! ☺️💞
