I wouldn't doubt that Jamaican gangsters would listen to this song from time to time.

“Informer” spent seven weeks at No. 1 on the US Billboard 100. The record this song debuted on, “12 inches of Snow” sold over 8 million copies worldwide, so there certainly was some success. Back then, if you’d not seen the video and instead heard this for the first time on the radio, you’d have had a hard time believing that this fast flowing Jamaican patois dialect was being performed by a white guy from the North York dist. of Toronto.

Take me back to the best time of my life (the 90s) the nostalgia is overwhelming 💔

[dellcoc]

Snow was really about that life. This got released when he was locked up.

I’ll add to this… Cool story. While doing time in Edmonton, met this Cool kat from Montreal, Jamaican 🇯🇲 immigrant.. 2004. Filled me in as to what the snow man was delivering. caught celly one day singing it! I asked! He broke down the particulars of the track I so very much loved for so many years. Respect 🫡.

(Here it is Spring 2024 wow! Feeling nostalgic)
Wife's still jamming to it till this day & I'm 6yrs older then her she just turned 36yrs began of Mar thos yr, shows how old I am 😂 but, I reme😮mber when she 1st heard this song when i took her out at 18 ( yes i know i shouldnt have but. give me a break i had to try 2 pull out all the stops at the time lol) out clubbing our 1st time togather w/ hers n mine friends on a party bus all over became an instant hit 4 her! Now still since 20yrs later in 2024 it's her tradition she has 2 go dancing n request this song no matter where we go, a lttle bar, or a big place, and she stil gets everyone to join in young old middle age to all dance & have a blast! I cam see my wife doing this till she's 80! Amd I'll be there every step of the way dancing with her if she let's me lol hones creaking n all😂
But, That's just 1 of the things that made me fall hard 4 her and will cherish her for life!❤

If Rockstar Games makes a Grand theft Auto that takes place in 1993 this should be the main theme and featured on one of the radio stations.

This song was pure 🔥 when it dropped and its still pure 🔥.

I've been listening to this nonstop for a few weeks now, and now I only can't sing 3 of the lines. Great work almost 40 years later.

A buddy of mine says his dad went to school with this guy, and one time on their way from school to go eat soup and watch the Dukes of Hazzard, as was the pass-time of those days, apparently his dad, saw bigfoot.

[michaelmontano]

They should start making rap records like this.

[mastrblastrr]

I always wonder when they were In studio recording the song how many retakes did they have to do till they decided “ok this it it!!”
