Aloe+Blacc 364x499 Aloe Blacc| I Need A Dollar

This week we posted information about “How To Make It In America” which is HBO’s latest discovery. Amongst the highlights of the very promising show and soundtrack was Aloe Blacc. Blacc is a singer songwriter from California who some (underground only) people may remember from the group Emanon. A fusion of soul & hip hop has placed this West coaster very high on our artist watch list over the coming months. Here’s “I Need A Dollar” from the series soundtrack, which is also the intro song for the show.

    Also, regardless if the sample has been used before it’s all about using it it new ways, so its not like it really matters anyway

    if you would had come to see me before you wrote that comment i would have told you thats not the same sample. I’m guessing you’re talking about the song Keep It Thoro by Prodigy?…sample is Music People by Jack Mayborn
