Anderson .Paak just admitted that while performing with Bruno Mars, he feels “free.”
The Leave the Door Open hitmaker will join his Silk Sonic bandmate on stage during his The Romantic Tour, opening the evening as DJ Pee, his DJ alter ego.
He will then join Bruno for his set to play their hits together, and Anderson has expressed that he is enjoying being part of a stadium spectacle.
“This is cake. This is like a luxury tour, you know?” he told PEOPLE magazine, adding, “I’ve been on tours, and it’s nothing like being on a stadium tour, with the good catering, the huge rooms, thousands of people, and I’m getting to play fun music.”
Anderson also teased that fans around the globe are in “for a treat” with the shows, and he was thrilled to rejoin Bruno for the first time since their 2022 Las Vegas residency, An Evening with Silk Sonic.
“It’s like we’re back again, like we never left, and doing the choreo and playing these songs,” he exclaimed.
Anderson continued, “A lot of people didn’t see our residency, so people are seeing this for the first time. It’s amazing. No greater feeling.”
“When we’re together, it’s something different. When we’re together, we are free. I feel like we’re tapped into who we really are, and it’s nothing like it,” he added.
Anderson also praised his ex-wife Jaylyn Chang and his extended family for helping making touring easier for him amid his commitments to his two sons, Soul, 15, and eight-year-old Shine.
He said, “It’s very difficult, and the balance is very uneven unless you have a great partner.
“It takes a village when someone’s working and on the road all the time. Time doesn’t stop and the kids keep growing and there has to be somebody there that’s nurturing and watching them. It’s not about how much time you spend, but what you do with the time you spend with them,” Anderson .Paak explained as he talked about family time.
