Haven't posted in a really long time, had this in draft for ages! But a couple of weeks ago American soul singer Aloe Blacc did a live session for BBC Radio 1's Live Lounge feature in London's Maida Vale studios and it was pretty sick. He's generally talented, but his live lounge was so good people were texting in asking if it was actually live. He's been around quite a while with his debut released around 2003 but only recently has he made it over here, signing to Epic last year and releasing single I Need a Dolla and album Good Things. (Which bizzarely has gone Platinum in Switzerland).
You also might recognise I Need A Dolla from that EA boxing game!
Anyway this is his live lounge, for those of you that dont know, Live Lounge Sessions usually are made up of the artists current song, a cover (and there have been some weird covers, including UK rapper Wretch 32's cover of Adele's Someone Like You) and a newer song/another song off their album. And this live lounge was no different with the cover of 99 problems. havea listennnnnnn.....
