Smiley Culture bio:

A satirical view of British society has been set to uplifting reggae rhythms by London-born vocalist and songwriter, Smiley Culture (born: David Emmanuel). His best-selling single, "Cockney Translations," poked fun at the dialect of England's working class, while, his unique view of London's security force was explored in his British top-twenty hit, "Police Officer." The son of a Jamaican father and a South American mother, Culture acquired his nickname for his method of "picking up" girls by asking them to smile. Learning his trade with a series of London-based sound systems, Culture became a star after joining the Saxon Sound System, which also featured Maxi Priest. The first reggae DJ on BBC's Top of the Pops, he later hosted a Channel Four television show, Club Mix. Culture has continued to broaden his musical palette. He performed a vocal interpretation of Miles Davis' "So What" in the film Absolute Beginners and has collaborated with American hip-hop artists. ~ Craig Harris, All Music Guide (from mp3.com)
