Lady Sovereign/Press



 
  REVIEW*****


British MC gets good and grime-y

Make room, M.I.A. and Dizzee Rascal. Packing a cocky flow that's as fast as it is unladylike, grime upstart Lady Sovereign unapologetically gatecrashes the elite guard of Brits that spit with this EP. "Random" screams to life with air-raid horns, and producer Medasyn inflicts pain on weak speakers with heavy bass detonations and rapid-fire drums. On the remix, Menta lets the bass boom longer and unearths tinny Knight Rider-style keyboards for a blend of bold and brittle. "Ch-Ching" adds spaceship sound effects to the formula.
