Lady Sovereign, barely 20 years old and a native of North London, specializes in a kind of kitchen-sink hip-hop that easily incorporates drum !n bass beats and vintage videogame sound effects. She is one of the UK's very few white female MCs, often cited as part of the rising British grime scene.
I had trouble buying a ticket because the ticket site said that they couldn't post them to me in time -- that might be why they are no loner listed on ticketweb?
If anyone has a spare ticket let me know (ben [at] dotben.co.uk), otherwise I'll try at the door.
We got there at 8:15pm or so, only about 20-30 people in line in front of us, and still didn't get tickets. So much for "tickets available @ the door" as the promoter indicated.
Young Love opened and wasn't really a good option in my opinion for the kind of show we were coming for. Then we had to sit through Mickey Avalon and his coked out strumpet stripper girlfriend to 'rock the party' or atleast try to...boring. After a 40 minute set break Lady Sovereign finally took the stage around 12:45 only to stop mid song complaining that 'shit's broken' and after hearing her pout and bitch and stop mid song for three consecutive songs I left...LAME.
