Sizzla Kalonji Chooses Born Afrikan for "Partners In Crime!"

It is no secret that Sizzla Kalonji has a deep affection for Africa. If you listen to some of his interviews, you’ll hear the artist talk about his respect for the land, for the people, for Africa’s wealth.  It should come as no surprise that Sizzla chose to work with performing artist Born Afrikan on a new track entitled “Partners in Crime.”

Born Afrikan was born in Malawi but made South Africa his home.  He began singing as a toddler in church, and his talent nurtured by his family. Fast forward to today, and we have the true Roots single with Sizzla.




Alongside a wicked bass line that runs the chune, Born Afrikan sings:  “they came to say they will help us / all they do is abuse us / they buy expensive cars / spend our money and build big mansions / for sure the time is coming / when my Father will judge everyone / when their train is going to clash / and all the wicked / dem ago perish / cause them ah partners in crime….”

For those of you who like roots music, this chune is for you … and for those who want to hear the classic Sizzla voice, this chune is definitely for you!
