    Think watered down Jamiroquai..yawn.

    Relies on numerous "guest performers"..Snoop- really...yawn

    Money is a underlying theme..yawn.

    BASIC shovelware

    Despite notable feature artists and some production by Dr. Dre, I still couldn't get into Paak's "Oxnard" project. I'm NOT saying that Paak isn't talented. I'm sure that he does. The problem for me is that the production and the music direction of his albums always leave me wanting more. Much more. :-(

    Uneven but mostly engaging third solo album. [Feb 2019, p.30]

    Certainly, the music here is very often brilliant. ... .Paak's tendency for juvenile and preening bad-boy bluster is a recurring weakness. [Feb 2019, p.84]

    Ultimately, the bigged up production doesn’t suit .Paak’s soulful tendencies, which are further lost in his switch to rap. There are a few highlights, sure, but not nearly enough for an artist who I would’ve placed bets would be the next Big Thing.
