about

"We picked it because we're Clash fans and knew it would translate well. Really loved diggin' into the original. I replaced the lyric "best girl" with "bacana" which means "very cool female" in Dominican & Colombian slang. Also, replaced "baby" with "heva" the 2nd time it comes around. It old Domincan slang for girlfriend / wife / baby / sweetheart. Our intro is a sample taken from the Clash version. I took their (drum roll) intro, sped it up to our tempo and it's what brings us into our version."
