It's a live version of "Calypso, Calypso" by Peter Metro produced by Jah Thomas. From 1:24 on the video it goes like this:
Peter:
"I am the DJ Peter Metro
mi seh
Anything me chat, it haffi end with 'o'
say 'yo-yo'"
Yellow:
"That a Y-o-y-o"
Peter:
"and a 'g-o-g-o'"
Yellow:
"That a go-go"
Peter:
"and a 'h-i-l-o'"
Yellow:
"That a hi-lo"
Peter:
"and a m-i-l-o"
Yellow:
"That a mi-lo"
Peter:
" ah 's-q-q-q-o'"
Yellow:
"Metro him no know"
Peter:

No problem, forgot to mention that the studio version features Peter Metro's sparring partner Zu-zu both have fun with the lyrics and give a little Spanish lesson as well. "Peter in a Spanish: they call it a Pedro, Paul in a Spanish they call it Pablo, your brother in a Spanish, that a hermano...Me gusta la leche, pero mas me gusta los ojos de used!"
Later on Yellowman would record a track called "Society Party" on his clash album with Josey Wales "Two Giants Clash."In the song the dignitaries send for all the djs of the time like Sassafras, Brigadier Jerry, Josey Wales to rock the party but everyone has a fault except for King Yellow. Yellow explains that they send for Peter Metro but he talks too much Spanish.

That album (Yellowman Live In london)is worth it just for the start when the horns section runs through all the big rhythms of the day.

A young David Rodigan does the intro for Yellowman on this LP also. Good LP and decent sound and pressing.

Re: What's yellowman singing?
So now a little follow up question. What does he mean when they sing
Peter:
" ah 's-q-q-q-o'"
Yellow:
"Metro him no know"
Because you can see that everyone is laughing like they were gonna die.
