Professor Green - Alive Till I'm Dead

Ok, it's out today, I "acquired" it about 20 minutes ago.

It's better than I thought it would be. There are the poppy tracks like Just be Good to Green and Need You tonight but then there are some animal tracks like Jungle (Feat. Maverick Sabre) and on the version I have there's a track called Crying Game with Mike Skinner.

Worth a listen or two.

Seeing as he was never a Hip Hop emcee to begin with you can't really fault his use of electro and grimey/dubsteppy beats.

I had a cursory listen. I think it's more designed to launch a few singles rather than be listened to back to back. He's got such a nasal delivery I think that's probably the best bet. Jungle is excellent. Looking forward to hearing Maverick get a shot at the big time.

has mav signed to a label?

Have to say I haven't heard all of the latest album but having heard the pop tunes I'm not sure I'll bother.

I know it's not to everyone's taste but I prefer this stuff:

I love Cores' verse on upper clapton dance.

He's signed to Plan B's label. Great position for him I'd say. He was support on Plan B's UK tour. Judging by his Twitter he's doing a ton of festivals this summer as well.

Jasus.. I see he got a bit of dental work done before his major label debut.

haha, yeah. Have you never seen his jumpoff battles? 99% of everyone esles lines about him are "you're tall and skinny and have bad teeth".

I aquired this album during the week. I like it a lot. It's a different sound and it's fresh. Pro has a good delivery and some witty word play

Fair play to him, he says in Before I die:
'I wanna get my teeth straightened, to make me more handsome'

Looks like that's one thing from the list ticked off.

I have to say, I'm loving the video for Need you Tonight and the song is actually growing on me too!
