Sizzla Kalonji, born Miguel Collins, is hailed as one of reggae’s most profound entertainers, a stalwart of the genre whose influence has resonated across Jamaica, the diaspora, and the globe.
In explaining the reason behind the event, Tamiann Johnson of organisers Cur8ting Global, shared, “Close friends, family, and fans alike agree that 30 years in music is more than enough reason to honor this living legend while he’s here to receive it. His influence on Jamaican culture and the world is undeniable. As the scripture says, no prophet is honored in his own country — well, we will celebrate ‘Dadda’ now.”
Patrons are invited to experience the vibrant music, food, and culture that define brand Jamaica, while being part of a historic day for reggae.
“This is not just a tribute to Sizzla, but to the rich heritage and global impact of truly Jamaican culture,” said Monique Blake of Cur8ting Global. “The intention and authenticity we’re pouring into this celebration — we want patrons to feel that. It will be a ‘Solid as a Rock’ kind of event.”
