English based rap music seems to be on the up these
days, you have people like Mike Skinner from The
Streets, Trip and even the members from Goldie Lookin
Chain who class themselves as some of the best rappers
in the UK, and another English based rap artist
I missed first time around is Professor Green but
he is back now storming out of the streets of East
London with his new single ‘Hard Night Out’.
I am quite surprised that I really like ‘Hard
Night Out’, my love for rap music died out
in the late 90’s and since then the only
rap music I ever listen to is those old bands
I used to love back in the day such as Cypress
Hill, Onyx, Bone Thugs N Harmony etc. The thing
I really like about ‘Hard Night Out’
is that Professor Green’s fast paced vocals
really remind me of the vocals of B-Real from
Cypress Hill, also the basslines are extremely
bouncy and the various different drum beats and
synths on offer helps the song rock out hard.
The B-side ‘Upper Clapton Dance’
features a bit of an epic introduction with a
bit of classical music opening up the tract before
Professor Green goes off on a journey rapping
about his upbringing in Hackney, the song is really
listenable and the addition of the classical music
piece running throughout the song helps Professor
Green stand out from the current crop of rappers
in the world.
I know I shouldn’t but I really like Professor
Green, in fact I like these two songs so much
that I can’t wait to hear more from the
Professor of rap.
4/5
