Plan B has said that his forthcoming album iLL Manors is the fruit of his development in songwriting, production skills and performing live.
The multi-talented rapper/singer said: '...The album has the lyrical depth of my first record but the musical composition is light years ahead as it's informed by everything I've learnt in the last five years - writing, producing and playing with a live band. I feel I'm better than I've ever been.'
iLL Manors is scheduled for a 7 May release, preceded by a full-length film of the same name and followed by a tour of forest venues in June.
