reception

Charts

Malibu reached number 79 on the US Billboard 200 . After a week, it left the album charts in the United States. In Canada, the album was ranked 88th. With 33rd place in Switzerland and 92nd place in France, Malibu was also able to position itself in European charts.

criticism

The e-zine Laut.de rated Malibu with four out of a possible five points. From the point of view of the editor Dani Fromm, Anderson .Paak wanders " in a graceful way through the spongy border areas of R'n'B and Hip Hop " that it is not surprising that " he has fans from both (and completely different) camps in droves run after. “The singer stands“ musically, vocally and in terms of content ”in the“ starkest possible contrast to the host of R'n'B interpreters. “The voice that is “ increasingly scratchy, especially in higher pitches ”has“ immense recognition value. “The transition from singing to rap is also seamless. With BJ the Chicago Kid , Rapsody , The Game, Talib Kweli and ScHoolBoy Q, Malibu brings together well-known guest musicians. Nevertheless, the album leaves “ the feeling that Anderson .Paak could have played the record all by himself. "

Leaderboard

In the list of the best “Hip Hop Albums of the Year” 2016 by Laut.de, Malibu was placed 25th. Anderson .Paak has been saying this since his six contributions to Dr. Dres studio album Compton swam on the " hype wave ". With Malibu the singer is " now perfectly demonstrating how to use the moment ".
