Following the release of his recent album Ventura, Anderson .Paak took to the stage on Ellen to perform a smooth rendition of his R&B ballad, “Make It Better.”

With glimmering keys, a killer trumpet line, groovy guitars, and .Paak’s bouncy, jazzy vocals, this throwback, early R&B style performance is definitely a standout. Performing alongside the Free Nationals, his backing band, .Paak stands front and center, smiling behind sparkly circular sunglasses as he bops along to the groove-heavy banger.

Watch Anderson .Paak & The Free Nationals perform “Make It Better” below.
