It was released on 17 April 2011 as the second single from his second studio album Black and White. A 12" vinyl was released the following day. The song samples Run D.M.C.'s "What's It All About" and Manchester band The Stone Roses' 1989 hit "Fools Gold" which appears on the US version of The Stone Roses and later on Turns into Stone.[1] The track was produced and co-written by British production team Future Cut. The song also features on the album Now 79.
"Unorthodox" was selected as the Weekend Anthem of BBC Radio 1 by Jo Whiley for 26–27 March 2011.[2] It also features on the soundtrack of FIFA Street.
