Standing head and shoulders above his peers, Stephen Manderson has established himself as the hottest UK rapper while remaining one of the most polite men in the business. Since his debut album exploded at No.2 in the charts back in 2010, Pro Green has continually shown us he wasn’t afraid of making hard-hitting, socio-political statements with his lyrics, and Radio 1 and 1Xtra continue to champion his music as he takes the UK by storm. His third album, set for release this summer, promises more of the clever wordplay, painful experience exquisitely told and unrelenting lyrical mastery that Green prides himself on. Having worked non-stop through Christmas, missing the BAFTAs and even postponing his honeymoon, it’s easy to see why Pro Green remains a master of his craft.
