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. The sole fact that the responses are extreme is the only issue at hand because that in itself signifies Sizzla's power to affect the reggae loving masses positively or negatively in a very potent way. Even those who are turned off by his message will have to admit that Sizzla is truly a gifted artist at the very least. On the other hand, those who are positively inspired by his music will claim that he is the "King of Reggae."

Greetings, with Brooklyn,NYC being a place that is home to maybe the largest concentration of "YardMan" inna deh states I must say JAHmakin and his acute assessment that indeed Kalongi is KING may be right on point. Never to undermine any of thy other inspirational artist in the Reggae world such as Beenieman, Berris H., the late great Garnett Silk, Gregory Issac, Dennis B., and many of the newer artist, but one can't deny that SIZZLA tends to annoint the industry and those who listen with a devine sense of sprituality. Bless Up
