Last night, Anderson .Paak was the musical guest on the latest episode of Saturday Night Live, hosted by actress Claire Foy, who stars in the 2018 film, The Girl in The Spider’s Web.
For his first outing of the evening, .Paak performed “Tints,” the lead single off his recently released album, Oxnard, welcoming collaborator and labelmate, Kendrick Lamar, to the stage to light up his part of the track from in front of the centerpiece drum kit. .Paak does the dynamo thing, rapping and singing while simultaneously holding down the whole band’s pacing behind the kit. His second performance featured the song “Who R U?,” flexing tight choreography in front of a glowing red backdrop. You can watch both below.
