Lady Sovereign - SAVE THE HOODIE!

savethehoodie.com has launched in a bid to save a national treasure - the hooded sweatshirt i.e. the hoodie.

Lady Sovereign has taken it upon herself to represent the UK in her quest to save the hoodie from the current wave of middle England's alarmist tactics and negative media tagging. By dedicating a positive track to her first love, the hoodie, she aims to not only outline the absurdity of banning an item of clothing but to draw attention to the greater social issues at heart.

savethehoodie.com will serve as a meeting place for those united against the stripping of our civil liberties. Supporters the world over will be invited to post up pictures of themselves in their favourite hoodie, learn about the hoodies history and get regular updates on new ways they can join the fight for the cause. The site also features an online petition, all supporters names will be printed off and presented by Lady Sovereign to those in power responsible for the hoodie bans.

It's time to stand up for your rights. This campaign is devised to strike at the hearts of the middle class, Daily Mail reading, scaremongers of our country, bent on causing friction between themselves and our youth. Sadly, even our Prime Minister and his deputy John Prescott have added their backing to the Bluewater shopping precinct hoddie ban in yet what amounts to another example of politicians failing our youth. As Sovereign puts it "If someone commits a crime it's not about what they are wearing, it's about the person wearing it, a criminal is a criminal no matter what they wear…. Don't blame the innocent hoodie, you should be able to wear what you want!"

"Fling on an Adidas hoodie and just boogie woogie with me, or you can just put on your dancing shoes and get loose can you, get loose can you….."

Long live the hoodie!

Lady Sovereign has just completed her UK tour. 'Hoodie' featuring featuring remixes from Basement Jaxx and Mizz Beats is released on November 21st on Island records.
