Free Music Notes for Public Warning
Free Music Review: One of the very few...
Hit: 5 Stars
Wow, what a great CD. I'm generally not a fan of rap, save for a few artists, and Lady Sovereign is one of them.
This is one of the very few discs I can put on shuffle and not have to skip any songs. I actually received the MP3s from a friend and liked it so much I went out and bought the CD.
Public Warning Poster
More Eminem than Missy Elliot, this diminutive U.K. rapper shows exactly how threatening a small woman with a big mouth can be. Her spiky collision of punk rock attitude and pop appeal is a revelation and her self-awareness is oddly shocking, but rather endearing, as the 5-foot-1 rapper asserts, "I'm the biggest midget in the fame." Wicked, irreverent, smart, and full of self-depreciating humor, this queen of grime rap pillages her autobiography on "Those Were the Days," deconstructs nationalism on "My England," raids Mother Goose on "Public Warning," and then drops a gauntlet with a loud clattering sound, making listeners laugh out loud with the snotty, but laughable challenge of "Love Me or Hate Me." But mostly she keeps things moving, throwing off sparks and bon mots with her mad, furious, in-your-face flow, while adding a bit of glam and new wave to the electro hip-hop beats. She might be small, but her future as the voice of the fashionably disaffected is huge. --Jaan UhelszkiUK pressing of the debut album by female British MC Lady Sovereign features one bonus track: 'Pretty Vacant' (Live At Commodore Ballroom). Her recent success in the US is all the more remarkable because she's steadfastly stuck to her uniquely UK sound. You'll find no Neptunes makeover. No MOR ballads have snuck into the set. Sovereign's still rhyming about shepherd's pie, Tango and Tony Blair. She's still playing havoc with musical genres; mixing up Rap and Pop, Punk and Grime, the social comment with the wisecracks. In other words: she's still all the things that made her stand out in the first place. The album features fourteen tracks including early singles `Random', `Public Warning' and `Hoodie' as well as new single `Love Me Or Hate Me' (which has sold over 125,00 digital units in the US so far and the video for which has seen Sovereign become the first British artist to have the No.1 most requested video on MTV US). Island. 2007.

"Public Warning" is Practically Impossible to Categorise Drawing as it Does on So Many Different Influences Including, Hip-hop, Grime, Garage, Ska Punk and Pop. On Home Soil Too, Last Year Sovereign was Still a Force to Be Reckoned With. She Released a New Version of "9 to 5" ("nine2five") with the Ordinary Boys, which Proved to Be her Biggest British Chart Hit to Date. Meanwhile, She Rocked Record Crowds at the Reading and Leeds Festivals.
