Whilst the bridge between Hip Hop and Soul music has mainly been associated with the samples used/stolen by Diddy in the '90s [and in recent times, Kanye West], a select few artists rather choose to incorporate the two genres rather than taking snippets from one to expand on the other. Stones Throw artist Aloe Blacc has been one of a handful of artists to encapsulate the spirits of traditional Jazz, Hip Hop and Soul music. The brilliant Shine Through album in 2006 brought forth a raw gem in the shape of fusing stirring vocals with rap beats and haunting African jazz. Good Things hopes to follow in the same underground success as his previous work did four years ago.
