	Greensleeves - Sizzla (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
		Sizzla began to develop his own uncompromising style whilst serving his musical apprenticeship with the Caveman Hi-Fi sound system.
		Sizzla has since released no less than seven albums, including 1998's "Kalonji" (Jetstar), which saw the single "Rain Shower" playlisted at Radio One and last year's "Royal Son of Ethiopia" (Greensleeves).
		To many Sizzla is a dichotomy; music is a vital means of delivering his message yet he doesn't support the music industry, believing it to be another corrupt and oppressing institution.

	Consolidated Vibes - Sizzla Kalonji and Judgement Yard: Operation King Fish
		In March of 2005, one of Sizzla's residences and its premises were raided by police and soldiers in a joint British and Jamaican intelligence operation called "Operation King Fish", which is a special task force designed to target the most notorious, violent, high-profile criminals in Jamaica.
		Sizzla was later released and the charges were dropped.
		Sizzla did not help his own cause as he has relased a barrage of tunes promoting gun violence recently, many of which despite being banned in Jamaica are huge hits.

	Reggae Reviews: Sizzla
		Sizzla makes a major statement here that he is a legitimate contender for the throne of King of Conscious DJs, a position most consistently held by Buju Banton, with others like Capleton, Anthony B, Prezident Brown, and (Roaring) Lion trying to climb to the top of the hill.
		Sizzla hit a somewhat unexpected high water mark with this album, his 25th or possibly 26th (although it might as well be his hundredth, as difficult as it is to keep up with his output).
		Sizzla responds with a batch of very strong melodies and lyrics that at least sometimes venture into unexplored territory, such as on the captivating opener, "Good Morning," which describes a relaxed day spent among friends and family, driving in the sunshine, and bathing.

	Sizzla
		This is the message of Sizzla and it influences his music to the extent that he is being looked upon as the teacher and the inspiration for Jamaican youths who want to retain the basic culture of their African origins.
		Sizzla's songs speak to poverty and hopelessness that pervades young Jamaica and obviously oppressed youths worldwide.
		Sizzla, who had originally planned to follow in the footsteps of his mechanic father Aston, suddenly had a change of heart.

		Sizzla is coming to Santa Cruz to do a sixteen and over show and continues to incite violence against queers, as recently as last month in Jamaica...this article explains why I decided to stand up...I am hoping to continue the "reasoning" or dialogue on our community...how we do anything is how we do everything...
		Sizzla as saying that nothing is off limits on this tour and his most recent album has homophobic lyrics...so...

		Here, some of Sizzla's most explicit material never yet released is captured live and direct and it is not for the faint of heart.

	Metroactive Music \| Sizzla
		Pato Banton and Junior Reid weigh in on the Sizzla controversy.
		Like Capleton, Sizzla is a member of Bobo Ashanti, a Jamaican religious sect whose leader, Prince Emmanuel, is thought by some to be the reincarnation of Christ.
		The irony, in the case of Sizzla, is that much of his music addresses issues of political and social inequality that would sit nicely with much of Santa Cruz's liberal population, had he not chosen to become a poster boy for Jamaican hate-speech.

	Review of Sizzla's "Be I Strong"
		Sizzla is generally considered to be on the same page (or at least from the same book) as Anthony B, but with a harder-edged delivery.
		But Sizzla also stands out to me as one of only a few young DJs that have their mind in the right place.
		I consider Sizzla to be the Bob Marley of this generation of youngsters.

	Consolidated Vibes - Sizzla Kalonji and Judgement Yard: Sizzla Kalonji
		When the name "Sizzla Kalonji" is mentioned in Reggae circles, it provokes an extreme response in all those present.
		Indeed, all who are not present but are familiar with Sizzla's prolific work nonetheless would be equally subject to that said extreme response if they should be present.
		That is the mark of a truly innovative individual whose name will undoubtedly stand the test of time due to the fact that the responses evoked by Sizzla's name and his music are of no consequence.

	JR.com: Sizzla - Jah Protect in Music: Reggae:
		Jamaica's Sizzla is one of the most prominent and talented dancehall artists on the scene.
		In addition to mixing dancehall with deep roots reggae, Sizzla also dabbles a bit with hip-hop influences, and JAH PROTECT is his most pronounced foray into that area yet, boasting a full-scale, bass-heavy production big on bumping beats.
		Sizzla's rough-and- ready raggamuffin delivery is as fiery and passionate as ever, and his themes, which focus on racial struggle ("Black People Suffering"), ganja ("Legalize It"), and spirituality ("Jah Protect") are still devoutly Rastafarian.

	Review - Sizzla And Bredren : Liberate Yourself
		Sizzla delivers his tunes in his, by now, well known inimitable vocal style, seemingly effortless firing his conscious, sometimes hard hitting, lyrics over any kind of riddim.
		It characterizes Sizzla's unique skills and talent that he is capable of finding his flow over whatever riddim.
		Sizzla already delivered the bulk of the tracks on this 2 CD set and with this "Ghetto Youth" he adds an excellent tune to the "Bredren" disc.

		It was the opinion of many fans that Kalonji fell off and fizzled out by saturating the market with so many albums (up to 5 a year) and trading the positive Rasta voice he had toward women for slackness and lewd sexual comments.
		Sizzla's voice is out of the box of conventional reggae vocals.
		This is Sizzla's best work as a artist, he should make more albums with this vibe.
