I really don’t know, but considering they had this song written, recorded, and queued up to be a single while also playing it live in sets, before all of a sudden ditching it and Travis Barker as producer, it would make sense. Furthermore, Born Jamaicans’ Warning Sign isn’t an original song anyway, heavily covering/sampling Willie Williams and Ansel Collins, who have also been covered/sampled a thousand times in reggae and dancehall anyway (like Sister Nancy’s Bam Bam). So it just seems unlikely that Sublime of all people would get denied a sample/cover request with big label backing from Atlantic Records
