Plan B’s latest single is a ferocious mix of seventies soul, UK rap and Rage Against The Machine-style political punk grandstanding. It’s roughly assembled but visceral, the old soul refrain pitch-shifted against a new set of backing vocals, skittering cymbals, DJ Shadow-esque drops of piano and defiant rap that verges on hysteria.
