In 2011, Anderson had started earning acceptance in the Los Angeles music world as he worked on his debut album. Shafiq Husayn of Sa-Ra and Los Angeles-based rapper, Dumbfoundead, helped Anderson recover financially from losing his job in Santa Barbara by employing him as an assistant, videographer, editor, writer, and producer.
He completed O.B.E. Vol.1 and released the album on June 30, 2012. He became the drummer for former American Idol semi-finalist Haley Reinhart. After the release of O.B.E. Vol.1, Anderson changed his stage name to Anderson .Paak; he claims that the dot stands for “detail,” the need to pay attention to detail.
