He may have lucky tattooed onto his neck, but luck wasn’t on Professor Green’s side today as he was forced to re-schedule his October UK tour for November and December.
All but two of his shows have been moved, following scheduling issues with the venues and Green’s management.
The rapper’s second album, ‘At Your Inconvenience’, comes out on October 31st and will be matched by a trip around the country which will see Green play 16 dates, including shows in London, Birmingham, Liverpool and Manchester.
Professor Green became one of music’s biggest new stars with the release last year of his debut album ‘Alive Till I’m Dead’ (it entered the charts at #2 and has been certified double-Gold). His three mammoth hit singles ‘I Need You Tonight’, ‘Just Be Good To Green’ and ‘Monster’ amassed over 500,000 sales, while the Hackney boy can also boast over 1.2 million fans on Facebook. In addition, he also collected a string of awards in the shape of the, MOBO’s Best Hip Hop/Grime Act, NME Best Dance Floor Filler Award for ‘Jungle’ and the BT Digital Music Award for Breakthrough Artist of the Year.
His next album, which Green’s latest single of the same name is taken from, will coincide with the album release – the first show is just two days after it hits record stores – and shows a whole new side of Professor Green. He has a new sound, but the same characteristically cheeky, jaw-dropping cultural references in his lyrics remain.
