Professor Green has unveiled a music video for his new single Lullaby featuring the gorgeous vocals of US singer-songwriter Tori Kelly. It’s pretty strong stuff, you might need the tissues.
The music video follows the story of a young boy growing up with his Grandfather who eventually has a heart attack and dies. It’s a beautiful, heart rending look at losing someone you love and all the emotions that surround it. The lyrics talk about the suicide of Green’s father – a topic that has been aired on both of his previous albums with songs like Read All About It and Forever Falling .
Lullaby is sure to be smash hit, produced by Chris Loco and featuring the vocals of Tori Kelly – the latest protege of manager Scooter Braun. “It is an honour to be on the same song with such a respected artist like Professor Green,” said Tori. “When I first heard Lullaby I knew it would be an amazing opportunity to sing it. Then when I met him and we got to perform it together, it all seemed to sink in. I became even more excited and more in love with the song.”
Professor Green is one of the crossover superstars of British music with an enviable career that has seen two Top 3 albums and eight consecutive Top 40 singles. He has sold half a million albums and 1.75 million singles in the UK alone. With three headline tours under his belt, plus countless festival performances on stages such as Glastonbury, Wireless and V Festival, this new album will add another chapter to his all-successful career.
Lullaby is the first single to be taken from Green’s upcoming third studio album Growing Up In Public. The single will be released by Virgin EMI on September 15, with the album following on September 22.
