Plan B the narrator...

For anyone whose had the opportunity to see Plan B's ground-breaking film 'Ill Manors' or even watched the trailer, you will understand Drew portrays himself as 'The Narrator' of a gritting, moving inner-city story, a role he takes on with tenacity and ardent venom. Welcome to Plan B's latest ground-breaking, stirring track, softer to the ears yet just as emotionally intense.

Deepest Shame tells the tale of a lady owned by the devils of the night. Riddled with the theme of entrapment, the girl with such a bright future ahead of her as a young girl is "crashing like an aeroplane." She can't go back, can't make a new life for herself, can't do anything without the pain of street-life.

With a gentle drum-beat and rousing acoustics Drew's vocals take centre-stage and he doesn't fail to deliver. Singing every note with conviction and heart, matched with his exceptional wordplay capturing the girl's predicament he paints a heart-renderingly, dark image. The soulful, heartfelt element to Drew's voice really is what paints such a vivid image in this tune.

The video, interchanges between shots of Drew and snippets from 'Ill Manors', truly showing the girl's hellish lifestyle, a slave to wicked, gluttonous men  with nothing but cruel intentions. At first, it seems like she isn't so encaged in that life, but as the video progresses and the song progresses, it shows Plan B wasn't lying when singing. "There's no way back from here, on out, only one place left to go."

A stroke of genius from Forest-Gate's finest...
