Plan B

The artist in this link is a man by the name of  Benjamin Paul Ballance-Drew, otherwise know in musical circles as 'PLAN B'.   An English artist that decided on his  name after initially trying his hand at R&B (as an 18 year old) then later deciding that this was not his thing.  Plan B is one amazing guy that when you sit back and think about exactly what he can do it should truly inspire you all to give something new a go.  When you think of most musicians you would probably assume that they can sing possibly play an instrument or 2 and maybe even write a few songs.  Well....





Check this out for a resume - Singer, Songwriter, Musician (gutair - self taught at 14), Rapper, Poet, author, actor, movie writer, movie producer and as he describes himself a 'Real life storey teller'.
 
This week I have two songs for you - the first was the one that took my attention about 18 months ago it is a live version of a song that came out in 2010 that I really loved, quite honestly I thought it was two totally different people singing until I dug a little deeper.  Performed from 'RAK' studios in London , this is a unique version of his song  "She Said".  




The second is the latest single of his 2012 critically acclaimed album "Ill Manors", once again he uses a broard range of skills with heart and soul singing matched up with some English flavour Rapping.
