Sizzla's ode to Barack

Sizzla

BLACK MAN in The White House is the title of Sizzla's latest song. It will be released in the United Kingdom next month by London-based Greensleeves Records.

The song refers to Barack Obama's ascendency to the United States presidency. Ghetto Youth-Ology, the upcoming album by the singjay also features the song; it is scheduled for release in the United Kingdom (UK) soon.

Ghetto Youth-Ology is produced by the Firehouse Crew, the Waterhouse-reared band that has recorded and toured with Sizzla for several years.

Anti-gay content

Sizzla has had a rocky relationship with UK authorities because of anti-gay content in some of his songs. However, he remains one of the most popular reggae acts in that country.
