Aloe Blacc (Stones Throw)

To the masses, Aloe Blacc is best-known as the singer of the opening theme song for HBO’s TV series “How to Make It in America.” In part thanks to that, “I Need a Dollar” is considered the unofficial anthem for twenty-somethings on the grind. Having spent about sixteen years in the business, Aloe Blacc certainly knows something about the hustle. Blacc’s years as an emcee has expanded into creating conscious music that spans the sounds of rap, soul, hip hop, jazz, and R&B, culminating in his most recent soul album, Good Things. In many ways, his stirring music is reminiscent of sounds from the sixties, but the lyrics are decidedly current, and tinged with a political slant. A graduate from the University of Southern California, Blacc and his distinct sound are quick to be described by music journalists and bloggers alike as smart, but his music is more than that, as Blacc straddles the worlds of art and life. Check out LOOKOUT’s interview with Aloe Blacc and don’t miss him live with his band The Grand Scheme on June 4th at Le Belmont.
