Yes lawd! The almighty Anderson .Paak played the 1Xtra Live Lounge this week (14 March), showcasing music from last year's acclaimed album Oxnard and 2016's Malibu.
Earlier this year, .Paak revealed he'd be releasing another new album, Ventura, in April 2019. And after playing the Live Lounge, he revealed a few big details while speaking to to Ace.
Some huge special guests are expected to link up with the California star, including Outkast's Andre 3000 and Jazmine Sullivan.
"We’ve got young legends on the album such as Andre 3000, Smokey Robinson, Brandy, Jazmine Sullivan," he revealed, joking: "If you turn on the AC I will tell you some more info, but I’ll keep it tight."
He described the album as having: “Lots of soul music, lots of ambition, lots of sexy groove-based material from the guts of our inner genius."
In the Live Lounge, he showcased Oxnard track Smile alongside fan favourite Heart Don't Stand a Chance.
This week he plays shows in London (March 15), Manchester (16) and Glasgow (18).
Ventura is due out 12 April.
