Plan B releases 'Deepest Shame'

Warning the new video from Plan B may disturb...

The Hot Press Newsdesk, 08 Aug 2012

The heart wrenching new video from rapper Plan B is reminiscent of the Arctic Monkey's 'When the Sun Goes Down' video (remember it featured a tired and fragile Kelly from Misfits streets being abused by a very nasty male bully played by Stephen Graham).

The tale and sentiment of Plan B's new video is the same, the sadness of the lives of drug-addicted prostitutes on city streets.

It is stylishly shot with plenty of artistic elements thrown in there but when it gets down to it, the video, like Plan B himself, is not afraid to be harsh and gritty.

Take a look for yourself...

From incendiary rapper to retro soul hero - the inspired reinvention of Ben Drew

2010-04-13 - REVIEW

Hip-hop does not usually mesh well with singer-songwriter earnestness, yet the UK rapper (real name Ben Drew) somehow manages to strike the right balance.

2007-02-09 - REVIEW

The concrete jungle of London’s downtrodden and multi-racial East End is home to some of the most terrifying statistics BBC news has to report, as well as some of the hardest, filthiest hip hop and drum ‘n’ bass beats in the UK. The area’s many big mouthed, bigging-up MCs frequently play with the term urban poet, but rarely is it so aptly claimed than in the case of this young acoustic guitar-playing, Bukowski-reading, Radiohead-loving rapper.
