Nov 20, 2018It may not be as beautifully consistent as Malibu, but during those glorious pinnacles when Oxnard is firing on all cylinders, it’s undeniably some of the best music of 2018.
-
Nov 19, 2018It may not be quite the full-marks classic he’d hoped, but Oxnard is an intriguing next step for the 2016 XXL Freshman that demands repeat listening and hints that he may have a Blueprint in him yet.
-
Nov 26, 2018Although not his greatest work to date, Oxnard confirms Anderson Paak at the upper echelons of the hip-hop scene.
-
Nov 19, 2018A still-formidable effort, but perhaps not the homecoming .Paak would have produced if he'd decided to go his own way.
-
UncutJan 2, 2019Uneven but mostly engaging third solo album. [Feb 2019, p.30]
-
Nov 27, 2018Bedroom jams, cameos and gimmicks pad the album’s second half. Paak resorts to a corny-sounding Jamaican patois on “Left to Right,” a cheesy saxophone disrupts “Cheers,” and Snoop Dogg appears like the avuncular ghost of G-funk’s past on “Anywhere.” After raising the bar with “Malibu,” Paak doesn’t quite reach the same heights this time.
-
Nov 16, 2018This meeting of joy and aggression is what defines Oxnard, and the effect is not always pleasant--it makes .Paak’s trademark grooves difficult to luxuriate in--but it is still a compelling mode, and one that rehomes his old-school tastes firmly in the present.

Nov 18, 2018He just flows so well on each track, especially the Dre-produced ones. Hand-down one of the best rap albums of this year.

Nov 17, 2018It's not anywhere near the level of Malibu, but it's a solid listen with some catchy songs.
