Professor Green teamed up with Miles Kane for his 2013 comeback single 'Are You Getting Enough', one of the toughest tracks of his career, but the UK rapper claims it's albums, not singles that are important to him.

He's had a pretty decent run with his albums up to now, with both Alive Til I'm Dead and At Your Inconvenience hitting the UK Top Ten and scoring Gold status. He releases his third full-length, Growing Up In Public, in October of this year, and hopes this will be the biggest of his career to date.

"My challenge now is to have a real career album, an album with successful songs, big songs," he tells Gigwise. "Everyone says 'this is my best album yet', 'this is my biggest album, and I don't think you can better everything especially not for everyone. People are always going to have preferences, it's always objective and you can't expect to shape everybody the same."

"It's its own body of work," he adds. "I'm not a singles artist. I've always made albums."

Professor Green collaboration, 'Are You Getting Enough' is out now, with the album following in October. Check out our full video interview below.
