Lady Lucy

As a visual artist Lucy Woollett has chosen ‘ Lady Lucy ' as a professional alter ego. In urban music circles the use of the word ‘Lady' is a re-occurring theme and Ladies, All the Ladies is the result of Lady Lucy 's self-imposed search to meet other ‘Ladies'.

Lady Lucy's film and events produce an inspiring portrait of women MCs, DJs, producers and performers involved in Urban music; Hip Hop, Drum and Bass, Garage, Reggae, Dance Hall, R and B, House and Grime from Bristol, UK and internationally.

Featuring Diss Miss (Dutty Girl, Girl Wonder ), Laydee Bird, Lady Free, Lady K & Lady Maximum, Lady Paradox, Lady Raz.
