I need a dollar

Aloe Blacc is an American soul singer who started his career in 1995 as an MC in the group Emanon. His first own album was released in 2006 and got attention when he recorder John Legends song Ordinary people in spanish, called "Gente Ordinaria". The above song, "I need a dollar" is the intro song of HBO's TV show "How to make it in America" and will probably be his big break. Aloe is according to rumors working on a new album called "Good things", and if the rest of the album is as good as "I need a dollar" and this song, his album will definately be spinning on repeat.
