Following the much-talked-about performance of Dawn Penn/ Chaka Demus & Pliers/ Beenie Man/ Elephant Man at the BET Awards' Dancehall session on Sunday, June 30th and Kanye West's Dancehall-inspired Yeezus album, Jay Z too has caught the Jamaicans music bug, sampling Sizzla Kalonji Solid as a Rock on the 8th track on the album titled Crown.
Sizzla's 2002-released single appeared on his Da Real Thing album and has been sampled a few times previously; popping up on Ja Rule's 2003-released album Blood in my Eye on the single Crown; 50 Cent's 2012-released 5 (Murder by Numbers) on the single My Crown; The Jacka 2009-released The Street Album on the single Crown Me as well as on Sigma's 2009-released single Jah Bless.
