This quintet of Hammers went all Run-DMC as they looked to raise money for NSPCC & the National Austistic Society.

In a series of videos, released by “frontman” Alex Song on Instagram, we see the bizarre dream that could only come from the mind of a mad genius such as Sam Allardyce.

The group of West Ham swap their bubble-blowing for lyric-spitting all in the name of a good cause and, while we might not be buying their record any time soon, the effort is very much worth applauding.
