reggae song title+artist

[captainkirky]

hi all ! i have a tune in my head, but cant remember the artist etc. it had a singer say at the start" i am the magnificent" with lots of echo on it . it was a hit in the 70/80's era . i know it was used as a sample on a rap
song but im looking for the original artist

Im sure its actually " I am the magnificent" sung by Dave and Ansell Collins.

I don't know if the following link has been sampled recently, but the opening lyrics sort of match.
so, was it this you were thinking of?

The actual title (of the original D & A song) is Double Barrell. Ah memories of when I was a closet non violent skinhead....
