This Letterkenny rap trio have produced the GAA banger of the summer

With a bit of trad thrown in.

2016 HASN’T HAD a legitimate homegrown summer anthem yet – but it looks like one has been bestowed upon us just in time.

Letterkenny hip hop group Phat KiiDZ have got together with the legendary band Goats Don’t Shave – of Las Vegas (In the Hills of Donegal) fame – to produce an instant classic:

It’s called GAA Jersey and it’s an absolute TUNE

Some of the lyrics are just perfect:

“I love the way that you look in your GAA jersey. From the way that you sound I can tell that you’re straight from the country”

And the chorus:

“Skinny jeans with the GAA… the GAA jersey”

“I work hard baby you know me… let me hold you like an All-Ireland trophy”

“Can’t wait to see my baby, looks good in a GAA jersey”

And, most beautifully of all, the Donegal GAA references are on point:

“Straight to the point like Michael Murphy, one more point to win the season… having pints for no reason”

Brilliant.

Coppers and nightclubs across the nation: prepare yourselves.

    Is the All Blacks kit now considered to be a GAA jersey?
