Aloe Blacc empezó su carrera en 1995, es músico californiano con fuertes influencias desde su infancia, marcada por el hip hop pero que siempre ha ligado sus bases a otros estilos como el soul, salsa, funk... en múltiples entrevistas Aloe Blacc explica como después de pararse 10 años haciendo rap, decidió dar un paso para encontrarse mejor a si mismo y de este modo probo con el Rythm and blues, dancehall y jazz, descubriendo de este modo que su verdadero sentimiento iba unido al Soul.
Fan declarado de Stevie Wonder, Jorge Ben, Sam Cooke y admirador de De la Soul, colaboró con el productor japonés Cradle, participó con su música en donaciones para la lucha contra el SIDA y los más valientes llegaron incluso a compararlo con Marvin Gaye en cuanto a usar su música como arma social, para concienciar sobre los problemas que nos rodean.
Something special happened today
I got green lights all the way
With no big red sign to stop me
No traffic jam delay
See I was driving over the moon
(Ohh I)
In my big hot air balloon
(Ohhh I)
Floating high into the darkness
(Ohhh I)
I hope I get there soon
(Ohhh I)
There's so many things to do
So many people i need to talk to
And they've all been waiting for me
Well I gotta make it through
Something special happened today
I got green lights all the way
With no big red sign to stop me
No traffic jam delay
Thank my stars for every green
(Ohhh I)

You have no idea what it means...no no
(Ohhh I)
To a man who's always traveling
(Ohhh I)
Whose seen the things that I've seen
(Ohhh I)
I don't know what's yet to come
Not sure of anything that I've done
Really makes that much a difference
Well I hope it has for some
Something special happened today
I got green lights all the way
With no big red sign to stop me
No traffic jam delay
Well I was driving over the moon
(Ohhh I)
In my big hot air balloon
(Ohhh I)
Floating high up in the darkness..
(Ohhh I)
I promise that I 'll make it to you very soon
(Ohhh I)
Something special happened today
