Anderson .Paak's Memory Tape

The Californian musician and producer shares early musical influences from the Al Green his mother played, to the great vocalist Aretha Franklin.

Musiq Soulchild was a massive influence in his "impressionable years", as was the dark R'n' B of D'Angelo.

Dr Dre also features because Anderson .Paak began his performing career whilst young, rapping Nuthin' But A G Thang at school, in show and tell. And it was Dre who ended up signing him, to his Aftermath imprint, in 2016.
