The track is on the Madlib Medicine Show #4 420 Chalice All Stars (highly recommended dub compilation) track 1, 7:11 in it starts,in a deejay style the lyrics are "(said by one deejay)what are you saying brother?(sang by a different Deejay)I'm saying, this is a crucial I-wah* this is a terrible i-wah, it crucial it crucial. jah living in a babylon i cant get no peace, everyday i wake up the trouble increase, i know wicked man...?" *im not sure if they're saying I-Wah but thats what it sounds like. its a dub sounding track with two deejays on it so im thinking its late 70s and maybe early 80s because of the instrumental dub sound as opposed to digital or more synthesizer sounding dancehall style

This is Michigan and Smiley - Living In A Babylon from their Downpression (1982) album.
