Anderson .Paak and Knxwledge make their long-awaited return as NxWorries with the release of their second album Why Lawd?. Available now on streaming services and physically, Why Lawd? follows their cult classic 2016 debut album Yes Lawd!. Fans of Yes Lawd! will find plenty to love on the new album, though Why Lawd? also finds NxWorries stretching to new sonic terrain – from Anderson .Paak’s deftly-rapped verses on “Battlefield” to the G-funk indebted production of “86Sentra” to the interplay of .Paak’s crooning and Earl Sweatshirt and Rae Khalil’s guest turns on “WalkOnBy,” the latter of which the group shared earlier this week as a final taste of the album ahead of today’s release.
Other previously-released singles include “FromHere” featuring L.A. hip-hop royalty Snoop Dogg and Death Row-signed R&B singer October London, “Where I Go” featuring Grammy and Oscar-winning artist and actress H.E.R., “86Sentra,” and “Daydreaming”. Why Lawd? is also available now on LP and CD.
In the time since the release of Yes Lawd!, .Paak has gone on to become an 8x Grammy winner and achieved global superstardom through his solo career. Knxwledge has meanwhile cemented his legacy as one of the great beatmakers of our time, a Grammy Award-winner with a prolific catalog of his own, in addition to being called on by the likes of Kendrick Lamar, Earl Sweatshirt and others.
