Submit Response is a weblog by Jack Mottram, a Chi Ching! (Lady Sovereign On Tour)
For my money, Lady Sovereign is one of the best MCs in the UK today, if not the best, so I’m pretty chuffed to have been asked to warm up the crowd on her mini-tour of Scotland. Not heard her yet? Check out Chi Ching (Cheque 1, 2) (5.5MB MP3) - if you have ears, chances are you’ll want to come see the pint-sized marvel in the flesh.
Here’s the skinny from Stet, the Edinburgh club promoting the tour:
Lady Sovereign is perhaps the most rated, respected and championed female MC in London just now. One of the few truly genre-defying rap artists that is at the centre of the Grime/Eski movement, her wit, lyrical flow, production and phenomenal stage show have had the likes of D12, Obie Trice, Basement Jaxx and The Streets requesting her as the support on their recent tours.
Absolutely in keeping with everything STET, Lady Sovereign is about future-music, now. Gritty, bass-heavy, driving, sparse and entirely captivating. Do not miss this.
The dates for your diary:
- Glasgow: 21st October at The Observatory, 138-140 Elderslie Street.
8.30pm-late, £5 - Edinburgh: 22nd October at The Bongo Club, Holyrood Road.
11pm-3am, £6 - Dundee: 23rd October at Sessions, Sessions Street.
10.30pm-2.30am, £7
See you there?
What a chirpy cheeky lassie she sounds. Enjoy!
