Long ago I heard a song, and have never forgotten it. However, I cannot find out either the title or the artist. A bit of the lyric is as follows:
CHORUS
Whoa, you want oppression (or is it "the pressure"?)
La, la oppression tonite REPEAT

VERSE (sort of?)
every day when the rent man comes
the people say
house rent too high (repeat verse)

Is this enough to jog anyone's memory?
Thank you in advance.

OH yes. I think I heard it on an album called" When Reggae was KIng"

rent man - black uhuru maybe. .

Max Romeo 'Rent Man' on the World Wide Label?

Yes. Max Romeo. Awesome. Thank you. I have been wondering this for like 12 years!
