Sizzla, along with reggae recording artists such as Capleton, Buju Banton, and Anthony B, are credited with leading a movement toward a re-embracement of Rastafarian values in contemporary reggae music by recording material which is concerned primarily with spirituality, social consciousness, explores common themes, such as Babylon's corrupting influence, the disenfranchisement of ghetto youth, oppression of the black nation and Sizzla's abiding faith in Jah and resistance against perceived agents of oppression. Sizzla has over 40 full completed albums sold in record stores to date, the most popular which have been "Black Woman & Child" and "Da Real Thing" on the Digital B label, "Praise Ye Jah" on Xterminator, and "Rise to the Occasion" on Greensleeves.
Recently, however, he has come under fire for the homophobic content of many of his lyrics, and the advocacy of violence against gays.

Sizzla's song No Other Like Jah encourages listeners to maintain faith in Jah as the only true and righteous ruler, while denouncing those who do not recognize Jah's authority. Sizzla spits lyrics that condemn Babylon and its wickedness, calling for people to be mindful of their actions and recognize Jah's power. He warns that wicked hearts will be put down and burned with words, power, and sound. Additionally, he speaks of the struggle he and others face from haters and doubters who only wish for their demise.
The song’s repeated refrain, "No other like Jah," serves as a reminder to remain steadfast in faith and to give thanks, as well as a warning to those who are foolish enough to oppose Jah’s reign. Sizzla's lyrics also express the idea that those who follow Jah are elements of surprise and must be recognized as such by society.
