[edit] Title track
The album's title track "Strictly Rude" is largely derived from Althea & Donna's Uptown Top Ranking which topped the UK charts in February 1978. While most of the song's lyrics have been rewritten to bear little semblance to the Althea & Donna version, the song's chorus sees the original line "Strictly Roots"[1] changed to the track and album's title, "Strictly Rude".
[edit] Noise Complaint
Possibly the album's biggest hit, it rose to popularity based on its popular DIY music video that is rising in popularity on youtube and other video sharing websites.
