Since his emergence in 1995, the enigmatic vocalist has undeniably put his stamp on the genre regardless of the current style or trend. Even musical icons like Jay Z have taken notice.
On his latest album Magna Carta Holy Grail, the rap mogul sampled Sizzla’s timeless classic “Solid As A Rock” on his new song “Crown.”
Before Jay Z, other hip hop artists used the same Sizzla’s tune to proclaim their throne status, including 50 Cent on “You Will Never Take My Crown” and Ja Rule on “The Crown.”
It is evident that Sizzla remains the reigning king of roots on his latest effort The Messiah, which peaked at #1 on the South Florida Reggae Chart and New York Reggae Chart.
The Jamaican star once again showcases his musical depth, passion and precision in partnership with Bread Back productions.
