Egbert Nathaniel Dawkins III (born January 6, 1979), known as Aloe Blacc (/ˈæloʊ blæk/), is an American soul artist, vocalist, songwriter, actor, record producer, businessman and musician. He is best known for his singles "I Need a Dollar", UK No. 1 single "The Man", and for writing and performing vocals on Avicii's "Wake Me Up", which charted at #1 in 22 countries.
Egbert Nathaniel Dawkins III was born in Southern California's Orange County to Panamanian parents. Growing up in Laguna Hills, he began playing a rented trumpet in third grade. When it made more sense to buy the instrument, Blacc had what he later described as a "very specific moment" in his evolution as a musician. "It forced me to be serious about it. I couldn’t just do it to get out of the class room," he said in a 2010 interview. His exposure to LL Cool J in fourth grade was equally significant. "It wasn’t too far off from the trumpet moment...I had a Hip Hop moment and a musician moment."
Blacc attended the University of Southern California, and graduated in 2001. He worked briefly in the corporate sector, for EY.
A variety store (also pound shop, dollar store, and other names) is a retail store that sells a wide range of inexpensive household goods.
Variety stores often have product lines including food and drink, personal hygiene products, small home and garden tools, office supplies, decorations, electronics, garden plants, toys, pet supplies, remaindered books, recorded media, and motor and bike consumables. Larger stores may sell frozen foods and fresh produce.
Variety stores arose in the early 20th century, with Woolworth's model to reduce store overheads by simplifying the duties of sales clerks. They may now be found all over the world.
A variety store often sells all goods at a single price, in which case it may be called a price-point retailer. The name of the store often reflects this, and in different markets it may be called a dollar store, pound shop, euro store and so on.
Some items are offered at a considerable discount over other retailers, whereas others are at much the same price point as conventional retail establishments. There are two ways variety stores make a profit:

I Am may refer to:
"I Need a Dollar" is a song performed by Panamanian-American rapper and singer Aloe Blacc. Blacc co-wrote the song with Leon Michels, Nick Movshon and Jeff Dynamite.
It is the intro song for the HBO show How to Make It in America, and was featured as the iTunes Single of the Week. It also featured in the game Fight Night Champion. Blacc has performed the song live on Later... with Jools Holland, The Graham Norton Show, Late Night with Jimmy Fallon, and Conan. In April 2011 it was featured in a commercial for Boost Mobile wireless services.
Two versions of the video have been released. The first, the "New York" version, features the screen being split in half. The right side shows Blacc singing inside an apartment while the left side shows a man walking through the streets of New York.
The second, the "Las Vegas" version directed by Derek Pike, shows Blacc walking alone along a highway in Nevada, and then hitching a ride to Las Vegas, where he finds a dollar coin on the casino floor, uses it to play a slot machine, and wins.

This is Aloe Blacc's recent Fairtilizer sponsored Showcase at Alhambar, a lovely night cafe in the heart of Geneva, Switzerland. It's hidden behind the Alhambra movie theater on the cusp between Geneva's two worlds: the shiny, high-end city center and the cobbled stoned, history ridden Old Town. Various Mod lamps and fixtures shine down on lux, mis-matched seating, while the looming pink glow makes enormous wall projections of bed room-eyed 90s sex symbols somehow feel appropriate. It's got that camp appeal. Decked out in a yellow ruffle shirt and high waisted pants, Aloe Blacc fit right in. He drifted through Geneva a few weeks ago for a Wednesday night showcase, and, lucky for you, a Fairtilizer interview.
