NxWorries (anderson.paak & Knxwledge) has connected with Earl Sweatshirt and Rae Khalil for their single “WalkOnBy.” The somber post-breakup song is the last single from their sophomore album Why Lawd? which will be available on streaming services tomorrow. They previously shared “FromHere” featuring Snoop Dogg and Death Row-signed R&B singer October London; “Where I Go” featuring Grammy- and Oscar-winning artist and actress H.E.R.; “86Sentra,” and “Daydreaming.” The album was released in physical form last week, including a weeklong pop-up shop at the Stones Throw HQ. Why Lawd? is their highly anticipated follow-up to Yes, Lawd! that came out eight years ago. Why Lawd? is available on cassette, vinyl, and CD. 

Rae Khalil performs the sultry “Is It Worth It” in a club setting with her band. Her soulful vocals, the musicians, her backup singers, and the choreography will make some call her the next wave of neo-soul.The R&B singer and hip-hop artist just signed to anderson.paak’s Apeshit Label which is a partnership with Def Jam. Paak also appears in the video on the drums. Khalil won her first Grammy with paak for her songwriting work and vocals on his “Lockdown” which took the award for Best Melodic Rap Performance in 2021. She got her start as a contestant on Netflix’s music competition show Rhythm + Flow in 2019. “Is It Worth It” is Khalil’s debut single and the smoothness of it all brings up the question of when she will release her full-length album.
