I'm a hardcore tech geek that works for one of Canada's largest software companies. I have a passion for cultivating and publicizing the diversity in geek culture. Most of my days are spent in the tech world, analyzing data, troubleshooting app/server issues, designing/illustrating and writing code. Ball is life and the Lakers will rise again (don't @ me). Passing me the AUX cord is like passing Picasso a paintbrush. Just so you know, I'm your music plug's plug. One part geek, one part jock, six parts One Punch Man.

Ahead of his yet untitled album, the electric force known as Anderson .Paak has released the new high-octane single, “Bubblin”, now his second song release of 2018. The kinetic track, produced by Jhalil Beats and Antman Wonder, has both the tamped-up energy and pace of a spy movie. In fact, Paak remarked in a recent interview that it “sounded like some black 007 action adventure. high speed chase type of music”.

If you’re looking for conscious, soul-searching material here, you won’t find it. This joint is all about flossing and makes no apologies for it:

Had enough of it, whoa
Watch what you’re sayin’
All that poppin’ and shakin’
Got me hot as a laser
My posse deep in our rating
We act a fool for the paper
Had a dream and I made it
El Camino on Dayton’s

“Bubblin” premiered on Zane Lowe’s Beats 1 Radio show, as a World Record. The song’s visuals, directed by Los Angeles born filmmaker and artist Calmatic, features Paak, a zebra and an ATM that spits out what seems like an endless amount of cash.

You can buy or stream “Bubblin” on a variety of music services, including Spotify, Apple Music or Google Music. For a list of songs that Geeks Of Color is listening to, you can also check out our Soundcloud and Spotify accounts.
