feels ‘insulted’ by American
KINGSTON, Jamaica — Bad blood appears to be brewing between reggae/dancehall artiste Sizzla Kalonji and longtime collaborator, American record producer DJ Khaled.
This after Sizzla posted on social media videos of himself burning two plaques reportedly sent to him from Khaled’s team. The plaques commemorate two of Khaled’s albums gaining platinum certification and were presented to Sizzla for the part he played on the projects.
However, in the videos now circulating online, Sizzla dubbed the gesture a “diss” to him and the people of Jamaica, saying he could hardly see his name on the plaques.
Tearing the face of Khaled’s eldest son Ashad from the plaques, Kalonji declared that “babies are innocent” before proceeding to throw gasoline on the rest of the material. Referring to the child as his God child, the ‘Run Out Pan Dem’ deejay said he’d rather accept the photos of Khaled’s son as his plaques than the commemorative displays sent by the Recording Industry Association of America.
“Yuh insult me DJ Khaled. Yuh insult Jamaica. Babies are innocent. Ashad a di boss,” the deejay can be heard saying in the videos.
The footage has triggered a lot of discussions on social media, with users expressing shock at the reggae singer’s action. Some users believe Kalonji went overboard and said he should consider that DJ Khaled is one of the few international artistes who extensively feature Jamaican acts on projects.
