East St. Louis artist Darrein STL has been paying his dues with appearances on Tech N9ne’s Strange Music and has spent the year dropping heat and making major moves. From summer party anthems to tales of making it from the “Ground Up”, Darrein has showcased his skills as a singer, rapper and producer.

His latest offering “Living Alone” gives fans a much more in-depth look at the man behind all the music. Set over a somber production vibe, Darrein drops a heartfelt look into his world, from the moments he questioned his path and the people around him, to his struggles with feeling alone and drinking to numb the pain.

The song comes with a powerful new visual, with Darrein alone in the middle of the desert with nothing but a bottle of tequila and his skills on the microphone to comfort him. On the track Darrein sings, “What’s the point of living when you’re living alone? All on your own., living alone.”

“Living Alone” is one of many new gems on the way from Darrein to close out 2018.
