First introduced to the DJBooth readership in September of 2011, when he hooked up with Kaimbr, Kon Sci and Legacy to bring us ambitious hustle anthem My Time, independent beatsmith L’Orange returns to our frontpage with a lower-key meditation on the the quest for worldly success. An exclusive world premiere, album cut Alone features mic work from West Coast underground mainstay Blu, whose interweaved reflections on individual and cultural striving are perfectly complemented by the headliner’s dreamy, haunting jazz-vocal samples. For this thought-provoking, headphone-ready cut and much more, check out L’Orange’s The Mad Writer LP when it hits record stores and online retailers Tuesday, November 20.

DOPE! and any other 4 letter word that is a synonym for DOPE. L'Orange's canvas is cookies to Blu's vocal milk.

Blu is one of the best lyricists that needs more hype. Really dope flow. Nice beat from L'Orange crafting a nice beat for Blu to flow on.

If you crave that smoky, jazz-infused hip hop, here's your track. Go and download the album if you like this. L'Orange has been working with some amazing feature artists to round out a mostly instrumental full-length album, The Mad Writer.
