Bringing Tom Tom Club to another generation, Uffie finally comes good with a faithful cover of ‘Wordy Rappinghood’. Ignore that the song is used for this, this DJ Mehdi produced track is infectious fun. The original appears on Tom Tom Club’s 1981 self-titled debut album. See the video for it after the jump. Tom Tom Club play Vicar Street on July 22nd. Tickets are €34.60. Thanks to Hypetrak for the embed.
