Rapping returning officer drops voter ID track

South Norfolk Council has dropped a new rap video to remind residents to take photo ID with them when they vote in the upcoming local elections.

‘ID like a boss’, the new track from the council’s rapping returning officer Trevor Holden reminds residents to make sure they have the required photo ID to vote in May.

Also known as T-Dawg, Mr Holden raps: ‘T-Dawg on the track / I’ve got something to say about May’s local elections / T-Dawg spitting bars about the voter ID selection / so make sure you bring it or you’ll receive rejection.’

Hold on to your socks. It’s finally time ?? ??

Local government’s second biggest star, T-Dawg’s, brand new rap video is live.
