The Aloe Blacc EP

Aloe Blacc

Raw, dusty boom-bap from the underground era. A snapshot of a future soul star finding his voice through gritty samples and sharp, rhythmic bars.

Find on Amazon

It's Aloe Blacc before the fame, just dropping bars over some of the dustiest soul loops you've ever heard.

A grounded, introspective cool that balances underground grit with a soulful heart.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The heavy, head-nodding bassline of Get Blacc that sets the underground tone immediately.
The transition from the war-themed interlude into the introspective groove of Personal Business.
The way the soul samples on Real Homeys feel slightly warped and lived-in.
