“midget” is a derogatory term. The word dwarf has generally replaced midget even for proportionally short people, though the term little person is preferred. According to the Little People of America, dwarfism is “a medical or genetic condition that usually results in an adult height of 4′10″ (147 cm)[1] or shorter, among both men and women, although in some cases a person with a dwarfing condition may be slightly taller than that.” Don’t call the wrong dwarf a midget or you will get stabbed.
lilppl — are you really a “little person”? i think most people use the word “midget” as a sort of blanket term for little people (and not necessarily intending offense), but originally it actually meant people who were small but normally proportioned, whereas “dwarfism” denotes people of small stature with disproportionately large heads and small limbs.
oh christ. i came to the club to hear music, not the performer crying about their sad life. you chose to be a performer, so deal with the BS that comes with it. i have absolutely ZERO pity for any celebrity who cries about the price of fame. save it for your blog, bitch.
painful watching that. i guess i just feel bad for them. makes me think of cat power too. dunno if she was bitching about fame so much as her career, which to be fair, is something we’re all guilty of doing. just so happens this girl is on a stage …
eh feck it, i’ll hold off on the sympathy until i know whether folks got reimbursed for the gig. does anyone know?
Fuck her, I live in NYC, come out to Brooklyn and say “Fuck America”? That’s ridiculous.
She’s wack and so are all the novelty hipster female emcee’s out there. This is the home of hip hop and she needs to take her shoes off in our house if she thinks she’s gonna rap in this city…even for one night.
That’s absurd and I hope she lost every fan in that room.
whether you like america or not, NYC is the original home of hip hop.
the thing that struck me the most about SOV’s album, was how most of it was made up of tracks that had already been around for the better part of a year or more. “hoodie”, and a few others…i think if she had more new material when her album dropped, she would’ve done a lot better.
what a fuckin ugly cunt that bird is. Why did ya post this shit? I thought there was gonna be a tune coming.. Thanks a fucking lot you arsehole for wasting like 3 minutes of my time you cunt :@
man, artists need to stop moaning. at least u dont have to get up every fucking day and do a job u fucking hate jus to pay the bills. and when u do go out, u get pre-menstrual bouncers stopping u from getting into the one club u wanted to go that night.
but oh no, u get up when u want and get treated like the queen of fucking sheeba but life is still oh so harsh.
she came to LA and stopped preforming after 3 songs because she lost her voice.
she was very frustrated.
but she did come back after the tour was over and it was a free show to everyone who bought tix to the first.
it was worth it in the end!
young love was a dope opener too..
My country is this best… Sov is the best….. we are racist and fat….. Hip hop sucks now dudes… get over it… it aint the same… they need to blow hip hop up and start over… There are only a few who survived…
america - not the best. trust me.
SOV - not the best…at all.
racist and fat - hey, if the shoe fits…
hip hop sucks now - all depends on your perspective. personally, i feel that the whole west coast hyphy scene is the immediate future of hip hop.
David: “Look whether or not Anton is indeed a midget, or a dwarf-”
Alex: “No he’s a midget”
David: “What’s the difference?”
Alex: “A dwarf is someone who has disproportionately short arms and legs”
David: “Oh I know the ones”
Alex: “It’s caused by a hormone deficiency”
David: “Yeah… bloody hormones”
Alex: “A midget is still a dwarf but their arms and legs are in proportion”
Gareth: “So… what’s an elf?”

Dave - It wasn’t a Lady Sov show….she was just an extra late night guest doing a 3 song mini-set at 3:30am. So nobody got their money back and I wouldn’t expect anyone to!!
This shit happens. Deal with it. Two days later Sov was off the hook at Jones Beach Amphitheater!! We all have our bad days, just most of us are lucky enough to not have people watching our every move. Give a girl a break.

Wow. Ahaha…That saddest part is, that’s true!!
Still gotta love Sov, though. Even when completely bonkers unhinged XD

NYC may have been the home of hip hop but it sure as hell ain’t any more. WTF is up with you New Yorkers now, you’re getting pwnd by everyone.
May 24th, 2007 at 21:11
she did the same thing in philly the first time she came through. she did like 1 track and then complained about the sound system.
May 24th, 2007 at 21:56
well… i’m still stickin with my crush on lady sov…
May 25th, 2007 at 01:14
now i know why uffie is so popular
May 25th, 2007 at 01:35
It’s all relative in someones life, that’s not the point though.
The point is, her image can’t be sustained and neither can any other rappers thriving on used goods and others’ tweaked images.
Did someone say, “Hip Hop is dead?”
If she can keep her head up, I look forward to her stuff in a few years.
May 25th, 2007 at 06:09
she do the same thing in Montreal last year…
FUCK LADY S…
stay in UK next time…bitch

May 27th, 2007 at 23:33
After all that I’ll add…
+ Lady Sov is still wack.
Still.
+ New York is still the home of hip hop.
Never said great music wasn’t coming from all corners of the globe.
+ How can you consider pride in what we create to be arrogant?
That’s ignorant.

I poop too much….and then I get tired!
