beats me!! can you put it in a sentence?
Sounds like they would use it in the same context as some people use 'choice' or 'sweet'

selekta is the long version of selekt, meaning 'good'. In normal english we'd say something along the lines of "for a select few". They take the work select literally, and therefore if you are 'selekt' you are good. (its spelt with a k aswell)
selekta.
its also used in mc-ing for another name for the dj, because he selects the tunes (selector), so the mc would say "Bring it down my selekta"
get it?

Then what is that song by the artful dodger that goes
"Something Something Something ?? When the crowd says bo.. selectaa"
What does that mean? "When the crowd says bo . . selecta (referring to DJ?)"
Thats doesnt make sense.
