A década de 1980 testemunhou uma explosão dancehall, e com a música veio o estilo de vida:. Drogas, armas e "negligência" (vulgaridade) que adoptam formalmente a fé Rastafari, com a sua defesa no-holds-barred de repatriação, escravidão e reparações o uso da ganja, ele entrou para as fileiras do Bobo Ashanti, em meados da década de 1990.
Sizzla começou a desenvolver seu próprio estilo ao mesmo tempo servindo a sua aprendizagem musical com o sistema de som Hi-Fi Caveman.
