reggae, especially that of bob marley, is some of the most soulful and mystical music you could ever hope to bless your ears upon. it can range from the sweet rhythms and politics of bob marley to the god awful dancehall of sean paul.
it is mostly hated by the shallow, white, suburban teenagers who can't get past that damned punk rock and MTV.

Reggae-An evolved ska sound from Jamaica. There are many different types of Reggae (all of witch are gr8) like roots - a heavy politically motivated style, concious - a more modern beat and sound, toasting- almost raping over an old reggae lp, dub- often intrumental hard beats.Love and harmony a softer loving slow jams with a reggae beat. Reggae is a rasta thing (mainly).
Roots Reggae- culture, Peter Tosh, the Wailers, Burning Spear, The Abbyssinians too name a handful
Concious Reggae- Buju Banton, Sizzla, Capelton
Toasting Raggae- U-Roy, I-Roy, Big Youth
Dub Reggae-Sly and Robbie, Lee Perry, King Tubby
Love and Harmony Reggae- Gregory Issacs, Culture, Bob Marley

quite simply, reggae is a soulful Carribean form of rock'n'roll. Inspired by American soul, ska, calypso and other Carribean music styles, reggae is usually in a laid back arrangement, relaxed and based on guitars. Reggae was invented in Jamaica but there are other performers in other countries that perform reggae. Many bands in various other rock styles have written reggae-influenced songs. Many reggae songs have scored international success over the past 25 years or so. Reggae is usually about island life, celebrating life in spite of poverty and oppression, sunshine, peace, racial equality, sometimes "ganja" and sometimes Rastafari.
Some world-wide reggae hits:
"Tomorrow People" - Ziggy Marley and the Melody Makers
"Can You Be Loved" - Bob Marleyand the Wailers
"Bad Boys (Theme from COPS)" - Inner Circle
"Red Red Wine" - UB40
"Pass the Dutchie" - Musical Youth
"Smoke Two Joints" - the Togues (sp?)
