Who Needs Actions When You Got Words is the debut album by British rapper and songwriter Plan B. The title of the album derives from a line in the Meat Puppets song Plateau, famously covered by Nirvana on their 1994 album MTV Unplugged in New York. The album reached and peaked at #30 on the UK Albums Chart when it was released in June 2006. It received very favourable reviews from critics in the hip-hop, indie and mainstream communities. In 2006, Q Magazine rated the album 64th in their 100 Best Albums of 2006. In February 2010, about 3 and a half years after its release the album was certified Silver by British Phonographic Industry for selling over 60,000 copies. The LP version of the album was released as a double-12" vinyl and bonus 7" vinyl, containing 14 tracks in total. Some tracks are in a slightly different order than the standard release, and the LP also includes "Breakdown", and The Earlies version of "Sick 2 Def", in place of the standard version. It does not include "Everyday".
