Mar 15, 2019 By Christopher Roberts Anderson .Paak

Anderson .Paak (aka California musician/producer Brandon Paak Anderson) is releasing a new album, Ventura, on April 12 via Aftermath Entertainment/12 Tone Music, LLC. Now he has shared its first single, the jazzy “King James.” He has also confirmed the album’s tracklist, which includes a slew of special guests such as André 3000, Smokey Robinson, Brandy, and more. Ventura is the follow-up to Oxnard, which was only just released last November. Check out “King James” below, followed by the album’s tracklist and cover art.

Anderson grew up in Oxnard, California, but then moved to Ventura, California, hence the titles of the two albums. He had this to say in a press release: “Growing up in Oxnard gave me the grit and the church to find this voice of mine. One town over I went further and found my depth. The duality of each place inspired me greatly and from that I made two albums at the exact same time but held one back because that would have been too many songs to perform live for you all! I like ending things on an even number so welcome to Ventura.”

01. “Come Home” (feat. André 3000)
02. “Make It Better” (feat. Smokey Robinson)
