I knew immediately they just hadn't heard any modern shit.

Lady Sovereign is the modern Poly Styrene. That is all.

I thought I was the only person I knew who had heard of Lady Sovereign (at least till CBB this year) I think she's ace.

I caught her from Hoodie just after it came out, and assumed, like you, that nobody else I knew had heard of her, and then was brought down to Earth with a (quite pleasurable really) reality check bump when the CD mix I picked out from duranorak's selection at the Christmas party that year turned out to have Hoodie on it. So there you are. I'm pleased to see Sov finally came out last year, though. That always gives me a nice glow.
