Plan B has revealed that fans may have to wait a while to hear his new album.

The rapper, who was reportedly set to release the follow-up to 2020's 'The Defamation of Strickland Banks' later this month, has now said he's putting all his efforts into his new film.

In an exclusive interview with Gigwise, Plan B said:  ''When I got a chance to go back in the studio which was in February this year I had to re-write a lot of the songs for ‘The Ballad of Belmarsh’ because we’d already established certain things about the character in the second album. That album is still yet to come out as I had to start work on ‘Ill Manors’. I have no plans to release it yet it's really all about the film and soundtrack for that.''

He added: ''I've got no plans to really tour with the next album as I don't think you really can. I decided to make hip hop that can go in my films and not the kind of music that can be played on radio or you can play on a stage at a festival.''

The full interview with Plan B will be available later today on Gigwise.
