A few years back, the gritty, sticky rap-hop lo-fi sounds of britain's newly coined "grime" scene intrigued...and pushed me to embrace the MCstylings of Lady Sovereign. After a period of extened plays, tracks like "Hoodie" and "Love Me or Hate Me" dropped to the back of the playlist rotation. Gotta admit, I guess she slipped my mind...might have something to do with the fact that I, ahem, rarel...

The whole thing skews towards Lily Allen...

This past weekend at Brooklyn’s Luna Lounge, Lady Sovereign the self-penned “biggest midget in the game” was to take the stage at 2AM for an announced gig. Soon 2:30AM rolls around, then its 3AM and people are getting drunker and more pissed. Miss Sovereign f

Can’t get the hooky, sing-song chorus from Lady Sovereign’s most recent single "Love Me or Hate Me" outta my head. Aggro. Somehow self-deprecating and unapologetically proud at the same time. With a funky backbeat like the immortal James Brown production of Lyn Collins’ “Think.” Dangerously catchy.By now, Lady Sovereign’s origins are common knowledge: British, white, working-class fema

Picked up this single from an iPod students group on facebook ...
