Peel first started playing her music in 1988 when she released her debut single, Wrath Of My Madness, which the DJ described on his 08 August 1988 show as one of his favourite hip hop records that is slow and grumpy. He would continue playing her material for the next two years, but after 1990 seemed to have lost interest in her music. After Peel's death, it was revealed that he had a copy of her debut album, All Hail The Queen, in his Record Collection: Q.
