The first episode was like a tapas sampler of Paak’s rapidly transforming life—a mix of fuckery with the undergound homies, work and press events with some big name collaborators, and family interactions. This episode provides a bigger portion and more insight to the music that Paak has on deck.
It’s full of studio sessions, with co-signs in the form of awed and surprised looks from some big names in hip hop. Paak’s work ethic and artistry shine through. With more of Paak’s music present in this episode, it’s easy to get hyped off the short snippets, even when they cut in and out with the quickness of a light-switch. Amidst the music though, there is still time to teach Dumbfoundead how to make the ill breakfast sandwich (you’ll have to peep the episode for the recipe), and family foolery.
