Welcome back to another episode of the Record Report!
This week, we're diving into the soulful vibes of NxWorries’ Yes Lawd!. Released on October 21, 2016, the collaborative project between producer extraordinaire Knxwledge and singer-rapper dynamo Anderson .Paak showcases a masterclass in genre-blending.
Yes Lawd! was years in the making, with Knxwledge’s signature soulful, sample-heavy beats providing the perfect canvas for Anderson’s versatile vocals and vivid storytelling. From smooth grooves to introspective ballads, the album strikes a balance between retro soul and modern innovation.
In this episode, we break down our favorite tracks, explore the duo's creative synergy, and discuss how Yes Lawd! has left its mark on neo-soul and hip-hop.
We also chat about Freddie Gibbs’ rise to rap royalty, our favorite "car music," and much more.
If you haven’t listened to Yes Lawd! yet, we hope this episode inspires you to dive into one of the most soulful albums of the 2010s.
