Sizzla Live



Seeing Sizzla live is the closest thing dancehall has to a punk show. It doesn't have stage diving and all that, but people get into a pretty decent frenzy.

If you ever get a chance to catch Mr. Kalonji on stage do it.

I believe this clip is from a show in Amsterdam. That would probably be a good place to see Sizzla. Everyone would be all baked and cordial except for the dude that ate too much space cake. He would probably be trying to ask every black dude with a shaved a head if they were DMX and if they could sign his hat for him.

Other than that it would be a pretty mellow crowd.
