Jamaican reggae legend burns up platinum disc sent to him by DJ Khaled
Jamaican reggae legend Sizzla Kalonji created tension on the internet when he broke the platinum disc DJ Khaled sent him into pieces before setting ablaze.
DJ Khaled’s recently launched album ‘God did’ features Jamaican stars like Sizzla, Buju Banton, Capleton and Bounty Killer.
One of the most popular songs on the album features Jamaican music and culture but Sizzla feels like DJ Khaled did not respect it enough, even after the success.
He accused DJ Khaled for using Jamaican culture for years but never giving it the recognition it deserves.
Sizzla further added that the record Khaled sent him had his name printed so small that it required a magnifying glass to be legible.
In a live Instagram session, Sizzla is witnessed smashing the record to pieces, removing the pictures of children, before dumping the debris into fire.
