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. Together, Stephen, Izzy and Richard talk about the kind of masculinity learnt from a council estate in Hackney, how the tragic death of his father shaped him as a man, and how he navigates fatherhood now with his partner Karima.
