brehs, can we say Sizzla is at least top 5 reggae artist of all time?

[KingSol81]

He's definitely in my personal top 5, but objectively, considering everyone, spanning all eras, top 15 maybe top 10.

 

[scuba]

spanning all eras of reggae... i dont know about that... its too hard to rap my head around.

Brutality for Love, and Praise Ye Jah, probably can go against any reggae artists top 2... he really is a great, not just a dancehall great.

Songs have an emotional impact based on when you hear them in your life... so i cant really compare great songs i heard in my 20s to songs i heard when i was 5 that molded what music was to me...

Dry cry even Tears even my heart cry but who Cares

 

[FromBillionsCameOne]

Yes definitely. I’m not the most educated Jamaican music connoisseur there is but when I get in the mood which is often my go to’s are Sizzla, Capleton, Jah Cure, Vybz and Aidonia. Those are just my favorite contemporary dancehall/raggae artists




Sizzla Capleton collabs are some of the dopest music I ever heard

 

[WaveGang]

I have no white god, dont teach me anything wrong

 

[King Sun]

That messiah lp he dropped

 

[JulesWinfield]

Top 5 for me would be strictly old school roots reggae artists. Dennis Brown, Peter Tosh, Burning Spear, Gregory Isaacs and of course Bob. Then you gotta think about all the dope groups like The Congos, The Abyssinians, etc. Buju, Sizzla, Capleton and Garnet Silk are my favorites from the 90s era. And my modern favorites are Chronixx, Protoje, Kabaka Pyramid, Jesse Royal, Jah9.

 

[Swahili P'Bitek]

He's certainly up there, and one of the best of His generation. But of all time? I think that would depend on personal preference cause reggae as a genre has so many giants in so many different eras with music that has stood the test of time that it is nearly impossible to say whose actually the best over that time period.
