LADY SOVEREIGN EMBARKS ON NORTH AMERICAN TOUR
Everyone’s favorite pint-sized rapper is hopping back to this side of the pond for a month-long flurry of her always-thrilling live shows. From humble beginnings playing small clubs just 2 years ago, to being the main opening support for Gwen Stefani’s tour to playing for 1 million people at Times Square on New Years Eve, Lady Sovereign’s live show is obviously nothing to be taken lightly. She’s embarking on these dates with Chicago-based DJ Annalyze as well as a live drummer. With a new album (Jigsaw), a new smash hit single and video (So Human), as well as her own record label through EMI (Midget Records), this is quickly becoming Sov’s year. Dates are below, interviews will be available on a limited basis and photos are music is available.
“Some of the most wicked rhymes this side of Eminem. Rarely has simple boredom birthed such unbridled brilliance.” -ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY
“Unlike most women in today’s pop scene, who embellish their musical skills with flashy choreography and an acting gig on the side, Sov takes the route of a hard-core male rapper, demanding that her skills alone determine any judgment.” – LOS ANGELES TIMES
“Lady Sovereign has all the makings of the next hip- hop superstar.” – ROLLING STONE
