London-based rapper Professor Green is one of the most exciting British rappers to emerge into the mainstream since Dizzee Rascal. Professor Green was signed to Mike (The Streets) Skinner’s label, The Beats, after winning the inaugural Jump Off Myspace £50,000 battle rap tournament in 2008. Since then, he has collaborated extensively with Lily Allen (appearing live with her on several occasions on her 2009 tour) and recently hit number 3 in the charts with the INXS-sampling ‘I Need You Tonight.’ He has been dubbed by some as the ‘British Eminem’ and certainly has the talent to go as far. He will perform on the festival’s Main Stage on Saturday afternoon.
