The multi-talented Aloe Blacc to to the L.A Times to discuss his latest master piece ‘Lift Your Spirits’. The singer-rapper-song writer revealed that when it comes to creating a song there are many factors that come to play, whether one searches for radio credibility is one of them.
“I want to make songs that give me a chance to be creative and artistic in the way I write my lyrics and present my vocal, but from a production standpoint, it has to be competitive with other stuff that’s on the radio,” Aloe Blacc says in an interview with the Los Angeles Times. “Otherwise, radio won’t play it…This album is what I think will work for the level that I’m at now.”
He continued;
“I leave the slower, quieter songs off the set list in a concert,” he said. “I envy artists who are able to have a dynamic show that goes from high highs to low lows and back up. But I spent long enough in hip-hop that it feels weird to bring the energy down.”
