Then is followed by the two ...  Read the complete review

While it may be no surprise that another Eminem-inspired rapper has immerged, having an MC follow the same course as a successful battle rapper-turned-recording artist is. After a strong run in the underdeveloped British battling scene, Professor Green's attention soon turned to making real money out of his talent as a lyricist. While he may have had a number of false starts by getting signed to The Streets' label and recording little more than a couple of EPs, all changed for him in 2010 as he released a pair of smash hits and followed this up with "Alive Till I'm Dead": his début album. While he may have done a lot with successful sample-driven ...  Read the complete review

Lauded as a match for Mike Skinner it is safe to say that in my opinion that over inflates his ability as a rapper and while this album has a couple of passable tracks on it the rest of the album is rather so so and it did not last long on my play list before being consigned to gather dust in a cd storage box. Just be Good to Green was the track that sort of hooked me into this album, a duet with Lily Allen it had a nice feel to it and the two lyrical styles of Allen and Green worked well together however after a number of listens even that song began to grate on me. One track I do like is Monster which features Example, this is a powerful anthem ...  Read the complete review
