Ive heard this song a fair few times so I know its not underground...someones gotta know the answer. Its a female singer, sounds 70s/80s and it kinda sounds like shes singing "aint got not style, i strictly move" or summut. Medium beat/dancehall.

Cheers

it's 'uptown top ranking' by althea and donna.

I love the TOTP footage of Donna and Althea. They are so unstarlike!

"aint got not style, i strictly move"

"nah pop no style / a strictly roots"

the one with the jewfro freaks me out. i like when rudy huxtable makes the little COO noise.

is it wrong that i searched these guys out after i heard their name on Losing My Edge? :(
