death does not cease greatness ... because dem young boys don't know .. and will live forever .. I was mixing them songs when i was 14 with two turntables and a crew in a park back when them cops was pushing us out of the yard
Had the privalage to work on lighting at one of his gigs with Black Uhuru at new ocean club Cardiff! 15yr old white boy looked after by the great man! RIP
Dude, you missed out on some good times, late 80's cruising town in a Fiat 131 Sport with Smiley Culture on, life was good then. So wrong that the Babylon murdered him and got away with it. R.I.P.
Peter Faulk was a good actor, he played a good detective, that good apparently that some people think he was a good detective 😉🤣 R.I.P. Smiley, your tunes live on man.
I got dis tune from BitD's & still love it. When I sing dis my friends are wondering who 'chat on da mike' wid dis tune,and I tell them it's Smiley Culture old track on the Police Officer 12 inch. They are SHOCKED! Wicked Tune. LOL Hovercraft too slow,reap what you sow,little breeze di ah blow. To them it sounds soft but it's nice n mellow & I like the way you make very line just end with a O.
fkn babylon murder poor old Smiley & got away wid it,as fkn usual..RIP geez...used to love this,& be able to sing along word for word..Bad bit of chating!!!
You hear UK grime rappers and you wonder where their style comes from? Check out the Saxon crew who originated this fast toasting method. Proud of these talented guys, even though they are from South London - lol
SMILEY CULTURE UPDATE VIA Merlin Emanuel Ok, Family press conference, tomorrow 11.30am, Brixton, Gresham Road, right next to Police Station across the road in Mosque meeting room. TV and radio will be there. ......Question is will you? Please come to support, not abort, through foolishness. We're gonna get these demons legally
I don't think so although it does sound similar, so you maybe correct...? I had a Smiley Culture 12inch single (vinyl), and Billie Jean was on the B-side. Sadly I somehow lost it... probably in a house-move. You could be right... maybe it was the Shinehead track on the B-side
@KAJAGO0GO0 This could've been any of us, my feelings would be exactly the same. Whenever I see a blackman being held in custody on the st (especially when he's alone), I make appoint of approaching that person, asking him for a number to contact someone close asap! I've done this on 2 occasions, the Police didn't like it, I wasn't aggresive or abusive, I just said that he is looking very healthy I wouldn't like to hear that he died of a heartattack on 10' Clock News in police custody!!!

Just came across this track and it brought back memories as youth living in south london (wandsworth ) what a talented Bruda he is surely missed
RIP Smiley Culture. Its such a shame he died almost unknown. He will always be a legend in my life
He died from a knife wound
No other DJ would drop the name Phil Silver! Respect to the Cockney translator!
Talented bi-linguist - died like everyone else who dared to challenge the system and talk the truth through music.

Smiley Culture did a brilliant cover of "Billie Jean", but I cannot find it anywhere on RUclips. If somebody has it, please upload for us. Thanks. :)
DomPayne5 are you sure you are not mistaking the version of Billie jean by shine head?
I don't think so although it does sound similar, so you maybe correct...? I had a Smiley Culture 12inch single (vinyl), and Billie Jean was on the B-side. Sadly I somehow lost it... probably in a house-move.
You could be right... maybe it was the Shinehead track on the B-side
