Blacc refers to himself as an "artivist," a portmanteau of the words artist and activist. From early in his career, he has been writing songs that point to struggles in the world and and has been involved with various causes.

Punk. Hip-hop. Cumbia. The sounds of Los Angeles — indeed, the sounds of the world — have influenced Buyepongo. This local band takes those disparate influences and lets them simmer together to make music that doesn't stick to one genre.

In the days following the Women's March in Washington D.C., one word was consistently used to describe MILCK's song "Quiet": anthem. Now, MILCK launched a website with the mission of "celebrating our unique voices and identities."

In the summer of 2013, Aloe Blacc's voice was inescapable. His hit song "Wake Me Up," wasn't just Blacc's big break in the U.S., it was a worldwide sensation and a song that's been recast to tell other people's journeys.

Music and activism are deeply intertwined. From spirituals of the slavery era to the pro-peace anthems of the Vietnam War period to Green Day's "American Idiot" to Beyonce's "Lemonade," these songs reflect the issues of the eras that gave birth to them.
