Video / Music Aloe Blacc - "Green Lights" (Video)

Posted by Ezra Ace Caraeff on Wed, Aug 17, 2011 at 8:18 AM

I adore Aloe Blacc. I've written about his music, his daytime dance party, and if Marjorie would let me past MOD's velvet ropes of exclusivity, I'd write about the man's stylish fedora as well.

The Los Angeles soul singer stars in this fresh new video for "Green Lights," where he hops off his broken scooter and takes to the streets of ____________. Uh, can anyone figure out exactly where he is? At first I thought it was Paris, but I might be wrong. Maybe it was shot at the Paris Las Vegas Hotel—they make the best pizza baguettes there.

This is just like Where in the World Is Carmen Sandiego?, but with slightly better music.

End Hits: Always bet on Blacc.

Are you shitting me, Ace? Check out :59 and tell me again that you don't know where that is. I know, it's early in the morning.
