21 year old Melesha O’ggaro, also known as Lady Leshurr is a self proclaimed addict of the interactive TV drama on Channel 4- Dubplate Drama. So when the opportunity came to get involved in the show and bring her musical skills as an mc to the table she counted her lucky stars.

The competition, Spit it Out, challenged budding mcs and rappers to film themselves spitting original lyrics on something that mattered to them. Melesha was selected after she uploaded her video onto the myspace page. Judges included Tim Westwood and Dubplate Drama’s creators.

Melesha recorded her part in the MTV studios in London. She said the recording itself didn’t take long but she spent hours at the studios being pampered by a makeup artist who listed Ndubz as a previous client.

Lady Leshurr’s performance will feature on the sponsorship adverts- this time for Child Line- on Dubplate Drama, aired on Channel 4.

Lady Leshurr’s success doesn’t stop there; she has also supported big names such as Chipmunk and Taio Cruz at Astonbury and Giggs at the Adrian Boult venue in Birmingham.
