Egbert Nathaniel Dawkins III (born January 6, 1979), known as Aloe Blacc (/ˈæloʊblæk/), 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.
Early life
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."
Brooklyn is a given name that has increased in popularity for girls in the United States and Canada in recent years. It has occasionally been used as a name in honor of Brooklyn, the New York City borough, but is usually regarded as simply a combination of the names Brook or Brooke, a name derived from an English surname meaning "one who lives near a brook" and the suffix -lyn, which is an element in other popular contemporary names in the United States such as Kaitlyn.
The name was the 26th most popular name for baby girls in the United States in 2014 and was the 16th most popular name for baby girls born in British Columbia, Canada in 2006. Spelling variants include, but are not limited to, Brook Lynn, Brooke Lynn, Brookelynn, Brookelynne, Brooklynn and Brooklynne.
Santigold first hinted at a collaboration in an interview with NME, saying she "may also do something with Jay-Z, it's kind of secret - it's not for anything, it's just 'cause we want to." The collaboration contains a sample of Santigold's track "Shove It", in the same vein as Jay-Z and T.I.'s "Swagga Like Us", which samples M.I.A.'s "Paper Planes". However, in "Brooklyn Go Hard", Santigold provides another new verse.
U District Station (formerly known by the temporary working name Brooklyn Station) will be an underground light rail station on the Northgate Link Extension of Sound Transit in the University District neighborhood in Seattle. It is scheduled to open along with the rest of the North Link project in 2021. Sound Transit estimates that there will be 12,000 daily boardings at the station in 2030.
Location
The U District Station will be deep underground underneath Brooklyn Ave NE between NE 45th and NE 43rd Streets. It will have two entrances, one in the plaza at the base of the UW Tower at the southwest corner of 45th and Brooklyn, and the other at the northeast corner of 43rd and Brooklyn. It is one block west of The Ave, at the heart of the University District.

Remember we sat in the cold, no money in my Trio
Underneath that waterfall nobody else ever saw
I packed up everything except those memories
That only I can see, and can't get rid of

"Brooklyn In The Summer"
Remember we sat in the cold, no money in my Trio
Underneath that waterfall nobody else ever saw
I packed up everything except those memories
That only I can see, and can't get rid of
I still remember the first, your body hit every nerve
Used to wake up in my shirt, that's the one I had to burn
Trying not to stare, but you are everywhere
You're everywhere that I ever known
You feel like Brooklyn in the summer
Been hiding, had to wait for so long
And it's the subtleties, you've only ever seen
Bringing the mess of me back together
You feel like Brooklyn in the summer
Been stumbling, half awake for so long
Gotta forget that feeling, give into something real
I've got, I've gotta let you go
Gotta let you go

[Verse 1]
Remember we sat in the cold, no money in my Trio
Underneath that waterfall nobody else ever saw
I packed up everything except those memories
That only I can see, and can't get rid of
I still remember the first, your body hit every nerve
Used to wake up in my shirt, that's the one I had to burn
Trying not to stare, but you are everywhere
You're everywhere that I ever known
[Chorus]
You feel like Brooklyn in the summer
Been hiding, had to wait for so long
And it's the subtleties, you've only ever seen
Bringing the mess of me back together
You feel like Brooklyn in the summer
Been stumbling, half awake for so long
Gotta forget that feeling, give into something real
I've got, I've gotta let you go
Gotta let you go
[Verse 2]
This morning I walked to the train, just like you did every day
Everyone else is the same, I wonder if you're the same
And do you lay your head in someone else's bed
To help you bury it? Just like you always did
And now you're in all of my words, only way I can return
Memories fade in reverse, but you will always be heard
Wherever I can sing, you'll be right there with me
The notes and melodies that only I can see
[Chorus]
You feel like Brooklyn in the summer
Been hiding, had to wait for so long
And it's the subtleties, you've only ever seen
Bringing the mess of me back together
You feel like Brooklyn in the summer
Been stumbling, half awake for so long
Gotta forget that feeling, give into something real
I've got, I've gotta let you go
Gotta let you go
[Bridge]
But maybe I'm not really ready to give up you
'Cause nobody ever mattered to me like you do
'Cause you're so up here, I caught that feeling
And touch the ceiling, ooh
I wish I could describe it with words just ain't enough
And nothing that I could say would ever measure up
But what I can't stand is you're outta my hands
And up outta your plans, ooh
[Chorus]
You feel like Brooklyn in the summer
Been hiding, had to wait for so long
And it's the subtleties, you've only ever seen
Bringing the mess of me back together
You feel like Brooklyn in the summer
Been stumbling, half awake for so long
Gotta forget that feeling, give into something real
I've got, I've gotta let you go
Gotta let you go
