Now I understand what everyone’s jobs are, who is doing them right, and who isn’t.  (Aloe Blacc Quotes) In hip-hop, I wasn’t very focused on delivering a message.

You can kind of tell based on what music a person listens to what kind of person they’ll be pretty much for the rest of their life  (Aloe Blacc Quotes) Compassion can change a lot of things, including the world. Young people especially need to know that, because they’re the future  (Aloe Blacc Quotes) I felt I had an opportunity to follow in the footsteps of great soul musicians of the past, who made a lot of social and political commentary through their music  (Aloe Blacc Quotes) I continue to write songs that are topically related to social, political and economic issues of our time, but I also recognize that onstage, I have a lot of fun and audiences have a lot of fun, so I’m trying to package the messages in music and sounds that are fun to perform and fun to listen to  (Aloe Blacc Quotes) America’s biggest export is media and I think that’s a positive thing  (Aloe Blacc Quotes) I’ve become more introverted as I’ve got older. I used to be an outgoing person who joked around a lot, but as the amount of energy I expend by sharing my music has increased, I like to balance it by spending time by myself and recuperating  (Aloe Blacc Quotes) In school, I studied psychology, linguistics, neuroscience. I understand that there is a real lack of respect for the brain  (Aloe Blacc Quotes) You can feel a lot of things, and that’s okay. Channel that into your passion  (Aloe Blacc Quotes)
