an adidas hoodie and just boogie woogie with me, or you can just put on your
dancing shoes and get loose can you, get loose can you… “
Lady
Sovereign – Hoodie
Coming
from a tough estate in North London, at only 19 years old Lady Sovereign has
already made a name for herself
having
supported Basement Jaxx (including the massive Somerset House gig), Obie Trice,
Dizzee Rascal, D12 and The Streets on UK tour dates. It’s no surprise then
that alongside a growing fanbase the world over, amongst those voicing approval
are Mike Skinner (The Streets), Ms Dynamite as well as Steve Lamacq and Zane
Lowe (UK DJ’s). There has also
been transatlantic approval from none other than Jay Z (who flew Sov out to do a
personal showcase for him) , Missie Elliot, Usher, Snoop Dogg and a certain Ad
Rock from the Beastie Boys has done a remix of the Sov track Shhh!
The
album is still being recorded and won’t be released until
March 2006 in the UK but I wanted to confirm that Lady Sovereign is an
Island UK artist and the album will be released next year.
