i need a dollah!

Aloe Blacc is not a name well known in the dance world by any means. He released his first LP Shone Through in 2006 which personally i believed seem a tad confusing, not only for the listened but for Aloe Blacc himself. It was soul meets rap meets r'n'b, but not in a good way. Some songs seemed heavily inspired by blues/rock of the 50's (which i loved) and others seemed like a bad John Legend rip-off. BUT in his defense this was 4 years ago and well ahead of the trend.

Today though he is getting mainstream success with his newest single 'I Need A Dollar' from his forthcoming LP which has been the theme song to HBO's How To Make It In America. The Song itself seems to embody Summer vibes unlike anything else. ENJOY!
