"At Your Inconvenience" is a song by British rapper Professor Green. It was released as a promotional single from his second studio album of the same name. It was released on 26 July 2011 in the United Kingdom.

Background

"At Your Inconvenience" was released as a promotional single from Green's second studio album and is the album's title-track. The song was premiered on Zane Lowe's BBC Radio 1 show on 13 July 2011.[1] It was selected by Lowe to be in his hottest record in the world feature.[2][3] The song features Green criticising the music industry, which he claims is dominated by dance music.[4] He also refers to Wayne Rooney's reported escapades with a prostitute, John Terry and Wayne Bridge's former friendship and makes references to TV presenter Caroline Flack and tennis star Anna Kournikova.[5]

"At Your Inconvenience" was released as an instant download when consumers pre-ordered the album from iTunes.[6] The song was also available as an individual download, without having to pre-order the album.[7] This release strategy was also used by Coldplay, also signed to EMI, whereby their single "Paradise" was available on iTunes as an "instant grat" - immediate download - when consumers pre-ordered their album "Mylo Xyloto". This release strategy rendered both "At Your Inconvenience" and "Paradise" non-chart eligible in the UK until their parent albums were released as the incentive is against UK Singles Chart rules.[8][9] The single later charted at number 97 upon the release of the album.[10]

Music video

The video to accompany the release of "At Your Inconvenience" was premiered at midnight on 10 August 2011 on Green's YouTube channel at a total length of three minutes and thirty-nine seconds.[11][12] The video, according to Yahoo features "a host of very random objects from a clown to an ostrich – worth a watch just for that."[13] Green also performed "At Your Inconvenience" live in Maida Vale studios for Zane Lowe's BBC Radio 1 show on 1 September 2011.[14]
