What's the origin of the quote "You da man, Harry. You da man."?

What's the origin of the quote "You da man, Harry. You da man."? - Black and White Laptop

I'm sure it's from a film, and I'm fairly sure it's sort-of said under the breath, in a respectful manner - for example as though the subject, Harry is out of earshot anyway.

(Similar to the bit at the end of Babe when Cromwell's all like "That'll do, pig. That'll do.")

I'm also nearly 100% sure it's not referring to Harry Potter in any way.
