General Levy

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

General Levy (real name Paul Levy) is a London born ragga vocalist regularly employed on studio tracks by drum and bass DJs. He is best known for the track "Incredible" which he did with M Beat.

General Levy was ostracised by the UK jungle scene in 1994 due to comments he made relating to his collaboration with M Beat on the seminal "Incredible". He had claimed in an interview with the The Face that "I run jungle at the moment”. Although Levy soon made a public apology, claiming that the Face journalist had misrepresented him, pirate stations and DJs stopped playing "Incredible".^{[citation needed]}

"Incredible" was featured in the motion picture, Ali G Indahouse. General Levy's most known word was "booyaka" which is the closest sound to a gunshot. "Booyaka" is said many times in the soundtrack. General Levy briefly collaborated with Rocco Barker of post-punk / gothic band Flesh For Lulu in The Space Police.

Levy also featured on the song "Only God Can Judge Me" by R&B singer, Mark Morrison.
