Anderson .Paak

I worked with a lot of people that were older or maybe younger and I always felt like the Lone Ranger that was still the guy that really wanted to play and perform and listen to old school stuff and he was that and even more.

And so… I went off, did my stuff and… Eventually… Quarantine hit.

So everything came to a halt.

And everyone was stuck.

No more tours.

And…

blessing of it was I had to be home with the kids and so my kids now are you know eight years old and I had a little baby I was like and you've been on the road since they were born 2016 yeah even before that that was my life you know bread and butter was put something out go on the road for months and you come home and life still goes on without you you know daddy's home and the kids run up to you and then they come out long time no see nobody's saving you no chicken don't get the big piece of chicken no more and everyone's like on the iPad I'm like

You know, so it became apparent, like, if I wasn't going to have a lot of time, it was very important about what you do with the time and being present.

And I know daddy's working and all these things cost and you got to do all this stuff.

But while I'm here, I want to be present.

And that was really what quarantine did for me.

I got to be present, create a bond with my son, figure out what he was into.

He's like, I like YouTube.

I want to be a YouTuber.

I'm like, okay, what's that?

I like K-pop.

I'm like, K-pop?
