Fresh from collaborating on Dr Dre’s critically rated album Compton, anderson .paak drops ‘Come Down’, a high energy groove showcasing his distinctive throaty vocals and wise-ass swagger. By the first verse, we know the Californian native already has a hit on his hands, partially due to the future-funk production courtesy of hip hop legend Hi-Tek. The bassline is also irresistible, reminiscent of the best seventies psychedelic rock, as the hypnotic chant of 'you might not ever come down' unfolds into a badass chorus. anderson .paak’s album Malibu will be released on 15th January via Steel Wool/ OBE Records. -DW
