SL2 - On A Ragga Tip

 

[ska invita]

Being Goldie I would assume this was filmed in London

just as a by-the-by, Goldie was born in Walsall, of Jamaican/Scottish parents, but grew up in Wolverhampton, and seems to talk of Wolves as his family home more than anywhere else, and now lives out in the home counties somewhere!
