Stoned to death in August 1983 following a confrontation with "supporters" of Jamaican Labour Party boss Edward Seaga, Michael "Mikey" Smith was a gifted dub poet and outspoken critic of all "politricks". This music video was remixed from archival footage and synched to the original audio recording from Smith's only commercially released album, "Mi Cyaan Believe It" (Island Records – ILPS 9717), recorded and produced by Dennis "Blackbeard" Bovell and his Dub Band and Linton Kwesi Johnson in 1982.
