And why not?

Like next to Hip Hop, there's probably no music I love more. So this is the place to talk,listen and watch for all your favourite reggae artists, styles, clubs and DJs and to reccomend and put people up on some reggae.
I love my Hip Hop (especially my true school 90s) but reggae/dancehall/soca/ragga rings off harder too. And who doesnt wanna see "They Gal Dem Whine dem":wow: :woot:

So lets do it. From Sean Paul, TOK, Capleton, Elephant Man, Beenie Man, Red Rat, Damien Marley, Collie Budz to legends like Bob Marley and Jimmy Cliff and The one Peter Tosh! Grab a Jerk Chicken wth Rice and hit the carnival.

I'll even welcome Reggae influenced artists (Kardinal Offishal, Boot Camp Click and Ska bands)


Some recent dancehall reggae tunes from the last few years I loved. Tell me you dont have a big kool aid smile when these set off in the clubs, put the lighters up:

Sean Paul-Get Busy:

Damien Marley-Welcome to Jamrock (big tune of 2005)
[YT]XflRKbiHrTo[/YT]

Beenie Man- King of the Dancehall
[YT]gsI36gwg51c[/YT]

Sean Vegas- Heads High (Damn who remember this joint. It was running 98)
[YT]wEuSVc5IcPU[YT]

Beenie Man-Who Am I :-)wow: How big was this summer 98?)
[YT]P5OGu8jwXbg[/YT]

Red Rat- Oh no ( ok so its the weak new version. But if someone got the 97 version. Put it on!)
[YT]pakq6ZacC9A[/YT]

Elephant Man-Jook Gal
[YT]4t-N7KhmGZ0[/YT]

Sean Paul- Tempreture
[YT]aNGVnNIxRUU[/YT]

TOK-Gal Yuh Lead
[YT]wTLsAuEEeBs[/YT]

J Status with Rhianna and Shonelle ( Who cares if it's pop as soda. How hard does this bang in the club?! Especially with a girl grinding and grinding and grinding..and:heart: @ Rhianna in the video)

Plenty of more to come.....until then speak on it
 
I really love Matisyahu, the man moves my soul with his music

of course, I don't understand how you can do a reggea thread without BOB MARLEY!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

I like UB40 too, but they're more dub to me
 
Bob is coming

I had to do the Dancehall modern stuff first, cause I love that stuff in the club

*dances away to the tunes*
 
I don't listen to much reggae outside of Bob, who's nonetheless among my Top 5 Favorite Artists.

And if anyone posts anything Sean Kingston-related in this thread...:cmad:
 
I dunno, but I relate reggae to a more spiritual experience, that's why I don't like the party reggae,

Young man control in your hand
Slam your fist on the table
And make your demand
Take a stand
Fan a fire for the flame of the youth
Got the freedom to choose
You better make the right move
Young man, the power's in your hand
Slam your fist on the table and make your demand
You better make the right move
"youth is the engine of the world"

Let's see some Patra in here!

Unless we're making the distinction between dancehall and reggae.
 
SL, did you ever go to Kilimanjaro's before they closed it?
 
Some Wayne Wonder:

Anyone got any Soca?
 
I am seriously lacking reggae in my music collection. A few random mp3s, a couple Bob Marley albums and Mad Lion's first album (heh heh).
 
That new Stephen Marley is the JOINT!
 
^^Heh. I have their first album. I remember seeing Notch on The Wake Up Show a few years ago doing his thing solo.
