Anderson .Paak has made his directorial debut with the film 'K-Pops,' which premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival. The coming-of-age story follows BJ, a washed-up musician portrayed by .Paak, who takes a drumming job on a South Korean reality show and discovers he is the father of a contestant, played by his real-life son, Soul Rasheed. Throughout the film, .Paak aims to reflect his dual heritage, emphasizing the importance of family bonds as BJ ultimately prioritizes fatherhood over his quest for stardom. The idea for the film stemmed from YouTube sketches the pair created during the pandemic, and .Paak credits his son with reigniting his passion for filmmaking. Shot on location in South Korea, the film also connects to .Paak's Korean roots, as his mother was born there. The film showcases a blend of cultural identity and personal storytelling, marking a significant milestone in .Paak's artistic journey.
