Hackney boy Professor Green releases his new single 'JUNGLE' on January 3RD through Virgin Records. Taken from his hugely-acclaimed album ‘Alive Till I’m Dead’, ‘JUNGLE' sees him going back to his East London roots.
Green takes the listener on a lyrical journey through the merciless and gritty underworld of urban life. 'JUNGLE' features the vocal talents London-born, Irish raised singer songwriter Maverick Sabre. Whilst True Tiger, a UK based production/DJ collective have produced the dramatic low-slung dubstep inflected beats.
Having already amassed single sales of 500,000, the album ‘Alive Till I’m Dead’ which debuted a number 2 has now been certified Gold. Created with imminent super-producer Labrinth, other standout tracks include ‘Oh My God’, the emotive ‘Goodnight’ plus Green’s first two hit singles ‘I Need You Tonight’ and ‘Just Be good To Green’.
Professor Green is currently on Live and Lost with BlackBerry – a challenge where he is dropped in a remote location with just £20 in his pocket and a smartphone to find his way to gigs hundreds of miles away. His endeavours will be screened on T4 this month.
