Sizzla Kalonji, an entertainer, publicly burned two trophies given to him in honor of American rapper and producer DJ Khaled’s platinum certification for the albums “Grateful” and “Father of Asahd,” which was this week’s highlighted development as Newsmaker of the Week.


The Jamaican performer is included on both albums, and since the fireworks, much has been said about his outburst.



Because of this, many Jamaicans’ primary concern this week was whether there was animosity between the reggae-dancehall performer and the American record producer.




However, after becoming enraged and tearing the plaques to pieces before setting them on fire, Sizzla erased the tapes he had saved of his dramatic act even made headlines in the worldwide entertainment news after receiving harsh criticism and some praise from his followers.
The videos, however, have gained a lot of attention, and some people feel that Sizzla has hurt local artists’ chances of working with well-known foreign performers in the future.
Concerns have also been raised about the measures’ consequences on other local musicians.
Sizzla was seen destroying and then torching the fragments of the plaques during an Instagram Live that took place on Thursday morning and was later removed from the social media platform’s news page.
You diss my DJ Khaled dude, you. During his tirade, Sizzla said, “A weh yuh a duh.
Sizzla added, “Babies are innocent,” as he tore a picture of DJ Khaled’s kid Asahd from the plaque certifying double platinum sales of the rapper’s “Grateful” album and hung the child’s picture on a wall.
The plaque was being torn up as people in the background screaming “Holy Emmanuel I, King Selassie I.” The deejay for “Nah Apologise” kept doing this.

Before realizing it, Sizzla murmured, “Not even mi name mi cyaan si pon dis.”
Off-camera, someone said, “You need a magnifying lens for that.”
On the album “Grateful,” Sizzla provided a verse to the song “I’m So Grateful.”
Khaled’s ‘Grateful’ first-week sales are the biggest in his career to date. With 149,000 album-equivalent units, of which 50,000 were sales of only the album, it debuted at the top of the US Billboard 200.
For their contributions to DJ Khaled’s records, other Jamaican deejays also received plaques, including Capleton, who was shown on social media posing with his plaque.
Sizzla, however, continued to be incensed about Khaled’s remark and tore down a second plaque honoring the platinum-selling record “Father of Asahd.”
The 15-track album also included Sizzla and the legendary Jamaican artists Buju Banton and Mavado, who collaborated on the song “Holy Mountain” alongside rapper 070 Shake and Sizzla.
Sizzla built a pyre later in Thursday’s Instagram live video, using even the delivery company’s packaging, doused it in flammable liquid, and set it ablaze.
Off-camera, a male can be heard saying, “You disrespect the DJ, Khaled.”
Although the videos were removed by late Thursday, it is unclear why Sizzla was furious because he and DJ Khaled have always gotten along well.
In reality, the rapper frequently pays a visit to the deejay at his “Judgement Yard” stronghold in August Town, St. Andrew.
On social media, there were a variety of responses to the video of Sizzla smashing the plaques. Some people saw the behavior as complete disrespect to Khaled, who has demonstrated his passion for the dancehall/reggae culture on numerous occasions.
According to a tweet from @keestroke, “Bad behavior like this is holding the whole local music business hostage and preventing it from blossoming in the manner we know it could.”
The user questioned, “Why would anyone take us seriously and want to do business with us?”
“Want to see cultural decay in all its glory?” tweeted @TheMacVillian. Watch this and tell me that isn’t the lowest moment in Jamaican culture ever.
“This is disgusting behavior for a man who has only exhibited respect and affection for Jamaica and its artists. I feel guilty. “#BadMind #CrabsInBarrel.”
Dancehall producer Cordell ‘Skatta’ Burrell expressed sympathy for Sizzla’s feelings of humiliation on Instagram, but said that the musician’s actions were unwelcome.
I can understand how he feels because I was a featured artist on a platinum-selling compilation album, but one must keep in mind that this is Khaled’s initiative.
“He’s been doing this for years, and this album has some of the biggest hip-hop artists, including Jay Z, Drake, Kanye, Eminem, Future, and Lil Wayne. Any dancehall artist that is featured on this should be really pleased and happy about it, according to Burrell.

At the 2017 competition, Downsound Records president Cordell “Scatta” Burrell (right) posed with Tony Matterhorn, the winner of the Heavyweight Sound Clash, and judges Colin Hinds and Dr. Sonjah Stanley-Niaah.

“We as a people will constantly be reliant on others to provide that support,” he said. “Until we as a people are able to promote our music and demonstrate support for our own.”
Burrell expressed his concern that local dancehall/reggae performers’ potential had not been “jeopardized” by Sizzla’s antics.
“I sincerely hope that this hasn’t jeopardized any chances for anyone who could have had the opportunity to appear in another major picture. We genuinely need greater assistance from the global community “added he.
“Remember, this is a business. To resolve these issues before they spread and reach the internet, managers are required to mediate between artists and labels. NO GOOD LOOKING, “Burrell said.
Some people stood up for Sizzla under the barrage of insults he received.
“Some of the folks here are calling Sizzla things like dunce and dark. Please pause and reflect, “Facebook user Lauren Williams commented.
“This is more complex than what you can comprehend. Sizzla, I assure you, is aware of what you are missing. All we have to do is pay attention “Added she.
“All you people saying Sizzla is illiterate must know what is happening behind the scenes, because we can’t use a video and judge, so Sizzla must know what’s up,” said Facebook user Krystal Hill.
Nichea Blackwood remarked: “Big up yourself, Sizzla. Do what you must since you are aware of your value.”
Mark Russell shared this with another Facebook user: “It’s obvious that it’s more significant than just the name’s size on the plaque. They all received the same plaque with the same-sized name, including Drake, Justin Bieber, and others.”
Yet Sizzla received criticism anyway.
“single verse? One verse is all the man wants, and a large feature? Something could be able to go suh! “Dalton Spence was queried.
“So why is Sizzla acting in this way after contributing a verse to a song? I’m truly at a loss for this behavior, “Gordon Stephanie said.
