Egbert Nathaniel Dawkins III , better known by his stage name Aloe Blacc , is an American singer-songwriter, rapper, record producer, and philanthropist.

Aside from his solo career, Blacc is also a member of hip hop duo Emanon, alongside American record producer Exile.
Early life
Blacc was born Egbert Nathaniel Dawkins III in Southern California's Orange County to Panamanian parents. Growing up in Laguna Hills, he began playing a broken trumpet in third grade. When it made more sense to fix 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 annoy and 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."
A Renaissance and Trustee Scholar at the University of Southern California, Blacc majored in linguistics and psychology and graduated in 2001. He worked briefly in the corporate sector for Ernst & Young.
Philanthropy
Blacc is actively involved in Malaria No More. The charity's mission is to end malaria deaths, through "engaging leaders, rallying the public, and delivering life-saving tools and education to families across Africa."
Personal life
Aloe Blacc is married to Mexican-Australian rapper Maya Jupiter. In 2013, they had their first child, a daughter, Mandela.
