"Informer" is a 1992 song by Canadian reggae musician Snow from his debut album 12 Inches of Snow. Produced by MC Shan, who also contributed a rap verse, the single was a chart-topping hit, spending seven consecutive weeks at number one on the Billboard Hot 100. It was his biggest hit in the United Kingdom, where it reached number two, behind two different number-one singles. In 2007, the song was ranked number 84 on VH1's 100 Greatest Songs of the 90s. Conversely, the song was included in Pitchfork's 2010 list of "the seven worst U. S. number one singles of the 90s". The song is well known for the line "a licky boom boom down" and for Snow's fast toasting and often inaudible lyrics. "Informer" is about Snow being wrongfully accused of a stabbing murder.more »
