My current reggae favorite is Groundation. Personally I think they're amazing.

Some classics are Black Uhuru, Burning Spear, Steel Pulse.

[Bona Drag]

amazing!1!!!!1!

[cuddlysheep]

get the best of steel pulse cd.

[readytoignite]

ward 21 & vybz kartel. sizzla is great but hasn't done much of note recently, his greatest hits comp is worthwhile tho. turbulence "notorious" just slays, it's available on the XL comp "these are serious times"

[Guest doubletap]

one word: MIDNITE

not jamaican (st. croix), but the best rootsreggae out there.

also:

peter broggs

israel vibrations

[Bona Drag]

ok, this post is serious

this is one of the most amazing things i've ever heard:

http://keithrichards.shop.musictoday.com/Product.aspx?cp=10820_11308&pc=2KCD01

like rasta gospel or something

maybe not true reggae, but truly beautiful, transcendent music

"Run Out Pon Dem".

tradtional nyabhingi.

[captain5640]

Cheep, do you have that album? If so, how is it?

[cheep]

i liked it sometimes... its not reggae at all. its real raw, like sitting in a room with a bunch of 80yr old rastas beating drums and singing hymns. good for relaxing.

i dont have it anymore... wish i did, but i doubt id ever buy it again.

[captain5640]

Sounds interesting. I looked it up after seeing your first post and it seems like your review is about the same as most people's. Looks like it's for the true Rastas.

Yes, also Scientist.

[axtsang]

Gyptian for summer tunes. Can't ever go wrong.

[eplsoccer7]

look for anything on VP records. Worlds largest reggae label out of kingston.

[onemancult]

I demand all of you go to www.vbs.tv and watch the Vice Kills Jamaica series,

under the "Music" section on the nifty remote control that pops up on the right-hand side.

Reggae is my life

This is my favorite album,

[stuntastic]

MhFXjK8tOOs

some briggy for ya.

[stuntastic]

Thank ya thank ya...

I was able to catch Ziggys concert here in the Philippines... Bastard sucked I must say. I mean, half of the songs he sang were Bobs. Which was good.

But it didnt have the whole reggae feel... Wasnt very warm.

Just left after he was done. Everyone was waiting around for an encore, me and my bro were waiting for Redemption Song, but nothing.

Oh yea... Katchafiya from N.Z. are good.

[cheep]

marleys are overrated... even the father. tosh and bunny were better musicians than bob, but were too black for international stardom.

Whoooooooooa...

Stephen, Damian, Kymani? overrated too? ay yi yi...

[Addicted 2 Fresh]

desmond dekker

jimmy cliff

toots & maytals

steel pulse

[Mr Fingers]

just a single recommendation:

YESSSSSSS!

[mmfood]

Have any of you heard of a Finnish reggae artist called Lightman? He sounds similar to Augustus Pablo.

[stuntastic]

In a sense, I agree. Because theyre over marketed.

But, for reggae as a whole, theyre great.

[cheep]

Whoooooooooa...

Stephen, Damian, Kymani? overrated too? ay yi yi...

i do like kymani

[jilla82]

I always try to get into Reggae...but it seems like whatever I check out has the same sound....whats the name of that drum they use? i get tired of hearing that

Any suggestions on stuff that doesnt sound like the typical Reggae song one might hear? I find myself listening to DUB more than Reggae

get Johnny Greenwood is the Controller. hand selected reggae, dub, jamaican-soul comp he did. great stuff too. check it out, its probably the best comp i've heard in years.

pressure drop is one of my favorite songs.

[syddhartha]

okay so for some reason i've recently started listening to all this reggae, dub, dancehall and...

i completely forgot about matisyahu (yes, matisyahu).

i mean his main claim to fame is being an orthodox jewish reggae artist, but his music is completely legit.

i could listen to king without a crown all day, as well as jerusalem. the songs that weren't mainstream were amazing too.

and barrington levy ALL DAY for dancehall. his voice is amazing, and so are his "shoodeewoowop"s
