This is the follow up to Mr Culture's first hit "Cockney Translation" and, I think, a far superior bit of chat. It came out in 1984 and was a hit in the UK despite it's references to ganja, running cops over and "The Real Sensimania". I guess the UK censors couldn't understand what he was on about since it got considerable mainstream radio and TV exposure at the time. The choon got him onto Top of The Pops and helped him get his own Channel 4 show, "Club Mix", in 1985. If you need help translating you could check his first single (which probably won't help but might raise a grin) or go here:
Despite a minor role in the film Absolute Beginners, Smiley ran out of chat ideas pretty quickly and, apparently, now works in advertising. Level vibes, seen?
