"Hoodie" is the fourth single from hip hop artist

Ch Ching (Cheque 1 2)".[2]

The single was recorded to coincide with her "Save the Hoodie" campaign.[3] Lady Sovereign wrote the single as she was angry that individuals wearing hoodies were being persecuted against due to people stating that they created social fear.[4] Lady Sovereign stated at the time, "I'm all about standing up for the hoodie. They wanna have a moan about people that wear them, but I wear them all the time and I don't like the way some other people dress".[5]

Lady Sovereign references the Three stripes trademark of Adidas in the song.[6]
