This is NOT what Daddy Snow says in his hit song "Informer". He says "a licky boom-boom dem" (not "down"), which means that the informers are ass-kissers. Any Jamaican knows this. "Licky boom boom down" has no meaning, and it's not what Snow is saying either. It's just a mis-heard lyric by people who don't understand Jamaican Patois. a "licky boom boom" is an ass-licker or ass-kisser. The "dem" at the end refers to "them", the informers. They are ass-kissers.
"Informer, you know seh Daddy Snow mi a go blame. A licky boom-boom dem" (Informer, you know that I Daddy Snow am gonna blame. They're ass-kissers). "Licky boom boom down" means nothing.

A phrase in white pseudoreggae rapper Snow's #1 hit song, Informer. It has no meaning whatsoever, but is known for being the only coherent line in the song.
Snow: Informer/You know say daddy me snow me-a (gonna) blame/A licky boom boom down
Guy #1 listening: What the hell did he just say?
Guy #2 listening: I don't know. All I heard was a licky boom boom down.

a phrase used to show compassion for someone's misfortune and/or express feelings towards your own misfortune whilst still maintaining a positive attitude.
similar meaning to the phrase "man down" used in a comical context.
(also the only coherent line from Snow's "Informer" an extremely popular track amongst peoples of the stoner persuasion.)
