Lady Sovereign was born Louise Amanda Harman to Lynette Parsons and Aden Harman. She was raised in northwest London's Chalkhill Estate, a public housing project. She was influenced by her mother's Salt-N-Pepa albums and began writing her own raps at the age of 14.

She began uploading some of her songs and a picture to various music Web sites. Around this time Harman adopted the Lady Sovereign moniker, a reference to the large sovereign ring she wore.2 After dropping out of school she landed a job acting in an educational film about the life of an up-and-coming MC who also dropped out of Preston Manor High School at 16.

She convinced the film's producers that she could record a soundtrack for the film, the demos for which landed in the hands of record producer Medasyn. He partnered Sovereign with Frost P, Zuz Rock, and Shystie for a male vs. female MC freestyle contest, titled "The Battle". It was released in 2003 on Casual Records. Every artist that was featured on "The Battle" has gone on to be signed by a record label.

Personally, I think that Lady Sovereign is awesome!

The "biggest midget in the game".
The cutest titch thats ever made music.

grime/hip hop/pop mix kinda thing.

Lady Sovereign is a UK "Grime" artist. As many who have seen her and/or heard her music, her target listeners are chavs and her lyrics represent this with such memorable lines such as:
"You was staring at me like to say i was ginger"
And who can forget:
"I was dishing out out the same dirty looks trust me your the minger"

Aside from these mindblowingly thoughtful lyrics, her background is as to be expected. Born in 1987, she was raised in the ChalkHill Estates, a set of Council House flats. As for qualifications, she is significantly lacking...any.

Self-titled as "the biggest midget in the gang", Lady Sovereign (aka Louise Amanda Harman) is a female MC raised in Wembley, London. She has taken both the UK and United States by storm with her high-original sound, witty lyrics, and has been applauded by rap kings and queens such as Jay-Z and Missy Misdemeanor Elliot.

Some claim Lady Sovereign may be one of the greatest rappers of her generation.

A grubby little rapper (or whatever) who is always on my tv. She appears to have a bad attitude and a lot of teen sass, but I'd still like to see her on the end of my dick.
