Malibu is the second studio album by American rapper and singer-songwriter Anderson Paak.

After dropping his debut album Venice in 2014 and then being featured on six tracks on Dr. Dre's Compton album in 2015, his star and profile rose. He has toured with Jhene Aiko, Tokimonsta, and others. This is the follow-up to Venice and features Schoolboy Q, The Game, BJ The Chicago Kid, and more.

The album has been described as Paak's potential commercial breakthrough, following his prominent role on Dr. Dre's album Compton (2015), where he featured on six songs. One song in particular, "Animals," which was co-produced by Dre and DJ Premier, was recorded for Malibu, before Dre decided to have the track featured on Compton.

 Malibu is an expansive opus that flows in multiple directions like a classic '70s double album." - Pitchfork
