Looking for ID on this tune, i think its a DJ version, possibly I Roy.

Here are some snippets that I think I remember:


"Down inna jamdung me say things arnt nice, some a ball out fe jesus christ.."

"cant get no milk in the shop, (something something) they say the price cant drop"

Ill add any more things If I recall anything. I dont know the riddim, I can just hear the voice in my head, very powerful and emotional

Thanks a lot

You're right Klaus5, it is very powerful and emotional and it is I Roy. He's toasting over I'm Not Ashamed, by Culture. There's a 12" mix of them both doing the song on the 30th anniversary edition on Two Sevens Clash. Errol Thompson does a great job at the sound desk, also.

Yes! Thank you so much!

I know it from the CD "Culture & The DJs at Joe Gibbs".

Any idea if this is the B side of the Culture Joe Gibbs single? I had a quick look on eBay and B is credited to "Mighty Two", so presumably its a straight/instrumental version? Whats the I Roy version titled, do you know?

Thanks for your quick response tonight, Ive been blasting the 12" version on the CD into my head for the past half hour. Easily the best track on there.

I don't I Roy ever released it. I think there was only a 12" extended mix, and it was simply entitled "I'm Not Ashamed by Culture featuring I Roy". I'm open to correction, though.
