This week on Who We Are Now with Izzy and Richard Hammond, we welcome the absolutely brilliant Stephen Manderson, perhaps better known to you as Professor Green. After losing his dad to suicide at the age of just 24 years old, Stephen found himself as the voice of a generation after the release of the single Read All About it with Emile Sandé.
