Lorenzo Asher – NORA [Album Stream]

Lorenzo Asher is back with his new project, “NORA”. “‘NORA’, an almost dance, almost drug sounds free project I produced, wrote, and recorded about a girl. The girl represents our generation though, rather epitomizes. I wanted to capture the essence of our vulnerabilities, and insecurities. From the depression to the drug-induced euphoric phases, I wanted this project to embody it all. I wanted to tell a story without being boring, or ‘corny’ – A story about us kids born in the 90’s… I hope it resonates relation with someone.” – Lorenzo Asher

Lorenzo Asher feat. Michael Christmas – Liverpool [Stream]

“I was with a bunch of my true hippy friends in Laurel Canyon, and they were putting me on to a new wave—a feel good wave,” Asher told FADER. “It was also the first time I had ever tried shrooms. We were at homie’s house —who happens to do one of the character voices for Nickelodeons’ Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles series—and my friend Kita was telling me about tantric love making. I just started jamming out on the piano singing the song.” – Lorenzo

Lorenzo Asher – Dreamy Saratoga [Stream x Download]

The DJBooth’s exclusive freestyle series isn’t just about allowing you, the readers, to enjoy some quality rhymes—though that’s a big part of it. It’s also about spurring artists to take their mic game to the next level. So we couldn’t have been happier to learn that the series inspired Lorenzo Asher to record Dreamy Saratoga, a new freestyle (and Booth-exclusive world premiere!) improvised over the course of one recording session. The Brooklyn-based buzzmaker’s sung and rapped bars are so impressive it’s kinda hard to believe they’re off the cuff. To top it all off, Asher produces the joint’s pensive music-box backdrop. Dreamy Saratoga isn’t part of a larger set, but those digging it can hear more on his Numismatics LP, which is available for free streaming and download in the Booth.

Lorenzo Asher feat. XV – The Color Of Ignorance [Video]

“The Color of Ignorance: ignorance, being the perfect word to describe the stigma that plagues our nation with racism, classification, and homophobia to which has become far to acceptable in this day and age. The ever so concealed yet never ending battle of racial divide, and societal inequality is the theme propelling this visual love story of an African American boy, and Caucasian girl involved in a seemingly tabooed relationship. A flower blooms and dies in a metaphorical representation of the harm caused to mankind by said evils. HOPE is key here, for without it we are forced to endure the wounds inflicted by the sword of our harsh realities. There’s always hope, and though it poisons our souls, don’t let it go.” – Lorenzo Asher
