ARTIST: Anderson .Paak

SONG: “Miss Right”

BIRTHDATE: 2/8/86

HOMETOWN: Oxnard, CA

CURRENT LOCATION: Right now I’m in Atlanta, GA, but may be in North Carolina by the time you’re reading this because I’m on tour with Watsky right now. Come through to a show – Tour dates can be found on my website: http://andersonpaak.com.

AMBITIONS: My main ambition right now is to keep getting better and better and to never settle for mediocrity.

TURN-OFFS: I like to connect with people, so I can’t stand when people don’t make eye contact with me.

TURN-ONS: To be honest, main turn-on is pretty feet (lol).

DREAM GIG: There’s something about the vibe of The Hollywood Bowl. I would love to perform a gig there. It has such a reputation and I would definitely love to cross playing there off of my bucket list.

FAVORITE LYRIC: My favorite lyric is from ToKiMONSTA’s track I was featured on called “Realla.”

CRAZIEST PERSON I KNOW: My friends LO_DEF and Jose Gonzalez, who are both on my VENICE LP, are definitely the craziest people I know. They both don’t have a care in the world and I mean that in the best way possible. They will always have my back and I will always respect them for that.

5 PEOPLE I’D MOST LIKE TO HAVE DINNER WITH: Andy Warhol, Miles Davis, Kanye West, Jay-Z, FKA Twigs

MY FAVORITE CONCERT EXPERIENCE: Hands down, the time I got to see Earth, Wind, and Fire was my favorite concert experience. I went when I was 12 and they pulled me on stage because I knew every word to “Keep Your Head to the Sky.” I’ll never forget that.

I WROTE THIS SONG: I wrote “Miss Right” 100% myself. It’s a track all about searching for what you’re missing from a relationship. Check out the VIDEO if you have yet to see it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AUa2jeDRalI/.
