I love reggae music, but I must admit that I am not very knowledgeable about it. So please help me out. Very Happy

It's kind of a genre that lived out its best days before the introduction of music videos. Instead I'm just going to post a few ska videos related to Korea.

this guy was my fave in high school, but his live versions lack much kick:

Here's a funny video I found today. It's the Aggrolites, a modern reggae band, playing an old song called Banana which I think was originally by Roy Ellis. It's not common you see a skinhead band playing for preschoolers but it's very cute.

Gays are currently protesting reggae because they say reggae has homophobic lyrics.

yeah rastafarianism, the religious aspect behind a lot of reggae, is not very open minded and is quite conservative.

a lot of women don't like reggae too much either.
