BLOOD ORANGE - Essex Honey [Crystal Orange]

Blood Orange (Devonté Hynes) returns after a six‑year hiatus with "Essex Honey," an album described as a soundtrack created from a dreamscape of his journey working through grief, deeply rooted in his upbringing in Essex, England, and exploring how music has been interwoven through his life as a healer and guide.

A profoundly collaborative record, Essex Honey brings together a diverse ensemble of artists, including Lorde, Caroline Polachek, Daniel Caesar, Mustafa, Brendan Yates of Turnstile, Tariq Al‑Sabir, Ian Isiah, Tirzah, Eva Tolkin, The Durutti Column, Wet’s Kelly Zutrau, actors Naomi Scott and Amandla Stenberg, as well as novelist Zadie Smith.
